While filing my new Champion Kickboxer CD between Nick Cave and Chas and Dave (in an appalling lack of alphabetical serendipity they sound nothing like a cross between the two, I'm told they sound like a cross between the Futureheads and Gentlre Giant) I recalled a comment on my last.fm profile to the effect that you can always tell a Word reader. Are we so predictable? If I were to say that the other CD I filed today I put between Gogol Bordello and Gonjasufi, can you guess who it was by?
Not v hard. But then post your own " what lies between?" question from your own collection.
Or not...

Goldfrapp?
Andrew Gold?
Goldfrapp?
Goldfrapp?
No
But thank you for rising to the challenge.
It hadn't occured to me there would be many options...
How about
Gomez?
Now that's odd
I'm sure Mrs SPT has a Gomez album on Cd, but it's not on the shelf. She must have chucked it out.
Older than these, I picked it up at a bring and buy sale at work this week.
Do set your own while guessing
Alphabetical order?
Blimey, my wife tried to do that with my music collection once. Lasted about a week. For instance I just checked for a 3 in a row filing example, Costello next to Tears For Fears next to Kraftwerk next to a Ministry Of Sound compilation.
It was my wife made me do it
She wanted to be able to find things and 'stuff that belongs together in my head' apparently wasn't all that helpful as a system.
The vinyl remains resolutely unsorted as she doesn't play that.
On the offchance you want to keep the game going you could always use iTunes
Gong?
.
Yes
Gong it is !
Excellent!
What do I win? A vinyl copy of Fish Rising by Steve Hillage?
Prizes????
Erm, about the gift of listening to Champion Kickboxer?
Ahem.
Don't hate me.

Aaaaargh
Tripped up by my own lack of alphabetterdom. My 'Gong' was on the next shelf of my Ikea Bennos. Otherwise my extensive collection of Gorky's Zygotic Mynci would have wrapped over two shelves AND THAT IS NOT ALLOWED.
What was next
Go West?
Surely not…
STH Goombay Dance Band?
Or
The Goodies
Rumen Gonzales
Gorillaz and Grandaddy.
Preceded by Godspeed You Black Emperor and Godflesh...
In that case I highly recommend
some Gorky's Zygotic Mynci
you can always tell a Word reader
you can always tell a Word reader.
But not fucking much.
Disaster
I found the Gomez album, misfiled (no doubt by Mrs SPT, I've never listened to it) so the whole thing has been misleading and pointless...
Oh no! Another female misfiling mistake...
Will they never learn?
