The Saturday Shuffle 9

 


Another Saturday, another Saturday shuffle.
This week we have acts from Nashville, Birmingham and Glasgow.

Let's start with some Country/ Americana from Nashville band BR5-49. Even if it's Wrong is the opening track from their eponymous 1996 debut album which is one of the 50 Americana Albums to Hear Before you Die. They were never the same after they dropped the hyphen.

I am old enough to remember when UB40 were good. The Earth Dies Screaming is a track from their 1980 Signing On debut album on Graduate Records. The song below is the extended 12 inch version 

Finally today we have Glasgow band Sacred Paws consisting at the time  of Rachel Aggs and Eilidh Rodgers. Stars is a song taken from their 2017 debut album Strike a Match on Rock Action which won the 2017 SAY (Scottish Album of the Year) award.Some excellent jingle jangle.

More assorted nonsense next Saturday
