Magic in Glasgow

Gonna be a big post today, dedicated to some musical technician wizard type folks from Glasgow. :)

I got a lot time for Scratchandsniff and the Applescruffs with the awesome they're putting up on soundcloud. Their tune selection demonstrates excellent music taste, which is a good thing of course, but then they enhance those tunes with a skillful, subtle touch that shows real care and respect to the original. Or possibly they actually do some harry-potter-gandalf shit, cos the end result is always magic.

Here's a few amazingly good examples:

George Jackson - You Can't Make It No Better


General Johnson - Don't Walk Away


Charles Bradley - No Time For Dreaming

Chuck Carbo - Can I Be Your Squeeze

And this... damn!
Charles Bradley & The Menahan Street Band - Stay Away

Nirvana cover = sex music

Stay Away
Covering a Nirvana track is always going to court controversy and to be honest most I've heard failed to do anything worthwhile. This tune however has such a filthy, dirty, beat to it that even before you factor in Charles Bradley's mindfuckingly sexual vocals, this tune is already licking your eardrums and dry humping your leg.

Filthier than a crack whore's knickers this.
