Music to get

[redbird]

Over on Making Light, pnh tnh included a link to Chumbawamba's new album. Having listened to most of the sample bits, and looked at some lyrics, I'm sold, and not just by the remarkably sweet love song "When Alexander Met Emma" (few love songs mention propaganda by deed). I'm going to try a couple of local record stores first, I think; the exchange rate makes ordering directly from the band less appealing. (12 pounds, plus three for shipping, comes to thirty dollars in U.S. money.)

In the meantime, I have downloads of a few of their older songs, including a wonderful extension of the Beatles' "Her Majesty."
