I took another break from having a guest this week and had the pleasure of playing some new music I found this weekend. Actually, when I say new music I mean music that I missed first time round! I stopped paying attention to the Smashing Pumpkins around the mid nineties and as a result missed Billy Corgan’s solo material. It was lovely to listen to it this weekend with the perspective of my musical tastes now. The highlight of this is ‘The CameraEye’ which I played this evening. Also, other music I heard from this perspective was Hole, who I had kind of disregarded in the past, but I really enjoyed listening to ‘Celebrity Skin’, which Billy Corgan contributed to. I played ‘Awful’ which featured on this album.
Last week I was able to catch up with Yinka again as he played a gig with his new line up of Sabatta at Cafe 1001 in Brick Lane. It was a rocking performance as always so I couldn’t resist playing ‘Makes Me Feel Alive’ to celebrate.
