£1 CDs from three Soho music stores January 29


£1 CDs from three Soho music stores on January 29:

Miracle FortressHave You Seen In Your Dreams [Secret City / Rough Trade 2007] Two songs from Montreal Brian Wilson fan's full length Five Roses

James Yorkston – The Hills & The Heath [Domino 2007] Four from B-sides compilation Roaring the Gospel for Scottish folkie
Montag – Going Places [Car Park 2007] Stereolab-ish indie-electronica from Quebecoise Vancouver man with many guests

Ocho – Numero Tres [Universal Sound] Nuyorican Latink funk. Suspiciously, they've been heavily discounted for years. But at £1, I had to check this and the previous album out.

Ocho – Ocho II [Universal Sound]


QueenInnuendo [EMI Japan 1991] The 14th studio album, and final with Freddie Mercury, harking back to prog sound of Night at the Opera. Unfortunately the remastering by Peter Mew uses noise reduction.

The Most Serene Republic – Underwater Cinematographer [Arts & Crafts 2005] Montreal fans of Kid A. "(Oh) god" is a stand-out. Reminds me of Beat Happening's "You're a Godsend", mainly due to the repetition of the title. Anything that repeats "god" fascinates me, particularly in a secular context, where religious content surprises me.

The National Trust – Kings & Queens [Thrill Jockey 2006] Slick 'indie' r&b
Tony Allen – Home Cooking [Planet Woo 2002] Afro-beat drummer's hip hop album
