Huzzah!
i really liked gettin gone double.
Well done Lono!
Finally getting some decent acts to play in Cornwall. The Sunburned Hand show was definitely one of my gigs of the year.
lol at when people just copy stuff
it's actually just 'gettin' gone', the "double" is because it's a double LP.
and it was released this year, not last year.
'green blues' was also released this year (in january, i think) so technically they released three albums (amongst loads of CD-Rs).
also, 'the uranian ray' is a re-release
PRs
Should be better, is what you're saying?
news journalists
shouldn't really just copy PR statements.
Well,
they should have faith in their accuracy, to be honest, given that OUR writers are too busy to check every album title ever offered our way.
green blues was 2006
Gettin' Gone and Goodbye Moonface probably count as 'proper' releases, all the others were just self-released.
oh yeah
maybe i was thinking of when apparently the vinyl of green blues was supposed to be getting released. LIARS.
Fangirl
