    Very nice lady, very committed to her music. Her partner Joe was playing with her on Saturday, and most of the passengers on the boat seemed to be members of her family! My wife works with a woman who Jess’s mum fostered, so they grew up together, which is how I came to be there.

    Ok, so we march on into 1988 and there was some fantastic new and varied music being produced on both sides of the pond...

    First up we have a single and the first track off of the critically acclaimed and influential NYC Avant/Alternative Rock band, Sonic Youth's Daydream Nation double album..
