UNTIL CORNCUB (SEE LINKS) TOLD ME ABOUT "DR. DOG". INSPITE OF THE CRAP MONIKER, THEY'RE REMARKABLY GOOD. IT'S NOT GENERALLY THE SORT OF THING I GO FOR BUT I'M REALLY HAVING THIS. "EASY BEAT", THEIR LATEST RELEASE (ON ROUGH TRADE) SOUNDS KIND OF LIKE EGGSTONE, THE DIGGERS, OLIVIA TREMOR CONTROL, BIG STAR, DEVENDRA BANHART, GEORGE HARRISON AND BADFINGER ALL MIXED UP TOGETHER. A BIT MORE LO-FI AND TWEE THAN THE RECORDS THAT I USUALLY FALL IN LOVE WITH BUT THIS DISC HAS TUNES TO SPARE AND THAT'S WHAT IT'S REALLY ALL ABOUT, N'EST-CE PAS? IAN MAC, HAVE YOU TWIGGED ON TO THIS ONE YET? FIND OUT MORE ABOUT DR. DOG HERE!
