On the other hand I would imagine that the Gospel according to Jimmy White the snooker player would be extremely entertaining.
Rather, you are getting the Gospel according to Jim White the gothic Americana musician and who is actually called Michael Davis Pratt.Quite why anyone called Pratt would want to change their name is beyond me.
All this nonsense is basically a preamble to featuring a couple of songs from his third album which I recently acquired ridiculously cheaply from the previously featured Greenhouse in Dingwall.
On Luka Bop from 2004 Drill a Hole in the Substrate and Tell Me What You See must have one of the longest titles of any album in my collection.
It's up there with The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars and if I could be bothered counting the letters I'd tell you which was the longest.
George probably has a formula for that sort of thing.
Jim White -Static on the Radio
Jim White - That Girl from Brownsville Texas
Did you know that there are TWO Jim Whites who are sports presenters?
ReplyDeleteNo
Deleteyou do now
DeleteI used to own the first three Jim White LPs, but reluctantly let them go in a space saving cull many years ago. Great to hear these tunes again, particularly 'Static on the Radio' with perfect backing vocals from Aimee Mann.
ReplyDeleteI have the first 3 which are all excellent.Haven't heard much of his later stuff
