...according to our on 14 December 2006.

And lastly from me today, we have a new album in by London jazz pop combo Stereolab. Now I'm not one to dis such a respected long running institution as T'lab but surely after 13 years they should have called it a day & delved into other areas of interest. Same goes for the likes of Sonic Youth as far as I'm concerned. Not to say that 'Margerine Eclipse' isn't a pleasant stroll through well trampled woods. There's some proper jaunty numbers on here & less of the jazz toss that's cluttered up recent excursions. A return to form maybe? But really, this is one for the fans & probably won't win 'em any new converts. However, there's a lot of you fans out there & you won't be disappointed. Deluxe limited vinyl & humble old compact disque. Dedicated to the sadly departed Mary Hansen as expected. Rest In Peace.

Love this record? Hate it? Tell us.
