Okay time to draw a veil over the weekends antics.

It was Record Store Day on Saturday and while I didn’t see any of the in store gigs, I did manage to get my hands on a lovely limited edition Villagers ‘Becoming A Jackal’ 7″ Vinyl. To be frank, my da put me on to Connor O’ Brien and Villagers a long while back but I wasn’t really feeling the  Hollow Kind EP. I’m a big enough man to admit when I’m wrong and how wrong I was.

Becoming A Jackal’ is simply amazing and the b-side ‘Twenty-Seven Strangers’ is great too. You have most likely heard about this guy somewhere else so I won’t waste your time, just check out his stirring performance on Later Live…with Jools Holland last week.
