Gang Gang Dance – Eye Contact
Bill Wells & Aidan Moffat – Everything’s Getting Older
The Zombies featuring Rod Argent & Colin Blunstone – Breathe In, Breathe Out
The Sea And Cake – Moonlight Butterfly

Urge Overkill – Rock & Roll Submarine
Kate & Anna McGarrigle – Tell My Sister

*If anyone is about Cork I recommend popping in to Jim and Albert in Plugd Records. The new store is up and running on Tobin Street as part of the new Triskel Arts Centre and you can even have a cup of tea and a bite to eat in their new café, Gulpd.
If you are located elsewhere I strongly recommend picking up at least one album when you can from your local independent store. Most independents now take orders by email and post out the stock if you are unable to get to the store so it may be worth checking out.
