Entertainment For Lively Minds
Something beginning with F

If you liked the track by Fanfarlo on this month's CD, you might be interested to hear that their album 'Reservoir', plus some bonus tracks, is available from their website for a princely $1. Rather good, really.
The only bad thing about Fanfarlo is that they come right before Fat Les's 'Vin-Da-Loo' (you remember ...) in my iTunes; I suspect this may be a source of future social discomfort unless I'm very quick on the draw. No, I can't delete it as that would be in breach of obsessiveness regulations.
Can the massive suggest a track or two that would fill the gap (alphabetically speaking) and keep Fat Les at arm's length?

Hair Metallers Faster Pussycat?
Assuming its the band you are after
Here are a couple of tracks I like which would fit
Fastball - The Way
Faron Young - Live Fast, Love Hard, Die Young
and depending how itunes treats "The"
The Fat Lady Sings - Arclight
I haven't heard....
that in years! It brought me right back to 1991 when I was spending a lot of time in Dublin trying desperately to be a rock star!
I like a nice F
Faces, Fairports, Family, Fleet Foxes, Free, Fahey (John),Felt, Faithless. Good Playlist if you ask me
Although I would skip The Fall and The Feeling personally
Oh Fiction Factory. Two Fs for the price of one and their phinest moment - Feels like Heaven. More Fs than you can shake a stick at
You really should delete Fat Les?
My paternalistic compulsiveness demands it of you (and any other reader)
Sigur Ros sent me this
Our great friends in London Fanfarlo are making their amazing debut album, 'Reservoir', available for $1 (USD) until Independence Day (July 4), along with 4 exclusive bonus tracks. It's got Sigurrós and her cousin Disa on the front cover in a pic by Jónsi's other sis Lilja (true), and we urge you all to go and get it straight away.
They made the record in Connecticut with a guy called Peter Katis and, as the more vigilant of you may have noticed, Jónsi liked it so much that he has started work on his own solo record with the same dude.

What a magnificent album! I cannot recommend it highly enough. A bit Arcade Fire, but less fraught (and better IMHO). Beautiful songs. If there is a better new band from the UK, I haven't heard them.
And they were magnificent at the ICA last week.

Completely agree with kb - best new album I've heard for a long while.
Thanks to Kevin for the original post.
