What you're about to read is a collection of pointers to some of the music I've discovered on the iTunes Music Store, music I like enough that I want to share it. If you're an iPod owner and an iTunes fan (and if you aren't, what are you doing here?), maybe you'll find something new. Click on any of the CD covers to bounce over to the store and sample a few tracks. And then maybe stop by my other blog for a few well chosen words (and maybe a random snark or two).RSS feed

Back Numbers / Dean & Britta
Back Numbers Not exactly an example of opposites attracting, but you do have two very different voices that fit together very well. Britta Phillips is as smooth and light as a soap bubble; Dean Wareham is more like a two day growth of beard. And their easy listening/sophisticated pop style blends those voices in ways I associate with Britpop of an earlier time. I was especially taken with their cover of White Horses, the theme to a UK kid's programme from the late 60s. I discovered the original on a TV theme album I bought on a trip to London and haven't been able to get it out of my head, in part because I can't imagine the show that would fit such a syrupy song. I'd say "but I digress" at this point, but when have I not?
