The Fairways were undoubtedly one of the best bands in the world. But if you haven't heard Brent Kenji's previous band Skypark you've missed something that is even more magical. They were only together for a short time, and the posthumous ep Summer Days Are Forver was released by Shelflife in 1998. It's still the best record they've put out (but maybe the Days album will top that?). It's been sold out for ages and is hard to find, so I thought I should share the opening-track with out. It's called "Bicycle Boy" and if you listen to the radio programme next week you'll get to hear "She Is Me" too!
Hi! Oh what a lovely ep, it is so nice you remember it. Shelflife has so many nice things anyway it is difficult to chose only one and as you said it is very probable DAYS will top everything they released. Kisses
This was a combined blog and radio show about POP! music. I started the blog when I moved to Glasgow and it ran during my stay there. We broadcast weekly from Glasgow University's Subcity.org. The shows are catalogued as SPLASHes, and you can still listen to all of them. There are also some rare or hard-to-find indiepop gems for download, and these are labelled DROP. Have fun while it lasts!
or any encouraging words you might have, can be sent to this address. But it'll be a whole lot easier to just leave a comment! I won't check the mail too often. If you've got more general ponderings, such as "what's all this pop stuff about anyway?", your questions might be answered by the manifesto I wrote some time ago, for better or worse.
