Some of the finer new songs floating on The Internet lately have an unusually timeless quality, as if they have been around forever - ie any time since the '70's. The common theme is perhaps that they don't feel the need to follow current fashions, one of which is, ironically, to borrow wholesale from times past, so modish drum patterns and 80's synth chords are mercifully absent.
1stly: Leisure (not to be confused with The Leisure Society, of whom the same comment could certainly be made)
Leisure - It's Alright (On The Suez Canal)
2ndly: The Morning Benders, who do have a little grizzly touch here and there due to producer Chris Taylor, but what's an echo or two between pals?
The Morning Benders - Promises
3rdly: Blitzen Trapper
Blitzen Trapper - Heaven And Earth
Gilbert O'Sullivan, where are you now?
