    The Wire's Covers Thing

    i came on the thread to post that exact thing! i haven't read the atricle yet but it looks like another chance for the Wire to write about 50 artists they write about all the time anyway. I do love the mag so i'll hold off judgement til then.

    sabres of paradise wilmott

    i have it, it's a calypso song by Wimoth Houdini and it's called "uncle jo, gimme mo!". saying that it's "an old trinidad folk song " kinda gives the impression that it's a traditional song, which isn't really the case ( and maybe you didn't mean that anyway). it's wonderful! give me half an...

    Penguin Book Covers

    They are a vast improvement on what was there before for that imprint but they are a superior variation on the black and white covers and spines that already existed. The minty green spines were for Penguin Modern Classics (so there would never have been a green spined Dante, for example). The...
