THERE are some weeks…
IN THIS PHOTO: Tash Sultana
where you get a consistent stream of great songs and others where it is quite weak – nothing stands out from the pack, it seems. This week balances smaller, less-startling cuts alongside big songs from the likes of Underworld (and Iggy Pop), Tash Sultana; Kanye West and Nile Rodgers (and CHIC) – a certain Paul McCartney has released a double A-side (I have included Come on to Me).
It is great to see the Beatles legend back in action and releasing incredible material – ahead of the release of a new album, Egypt Station – and show the music world how it is done. Sit down and enjoy his contribution, and many others, to a varied and talk-worthy week of music.
