  • MP3: Luna play Speedbumps on The World Cafe
    Friday, April 11th, 2008

    Rendezvous has plenty of great songs - IMO it's not Luna's best album but was a very fine swansong and in Speedbumps has a song that'll very probably turn up in my top 6 Luna tracks list when I can be bothered to do one. From the first moment I heard it I was taken [...]

  • Stranded In Stereo gives an alternative view of “The Days of Our Nights”
    Friday, March 28th, 2008

    Stranded In Stereo has a cool post about The Days of Our Nights", the album that Dean described (in Black Postcards) as "possibly the worst" of Luna's albums ("It's not for lack of trying that the fifth album is a bloated dud"). It has inspired me to give the album another listen...
    "Is that your [...]

  • Best of Luna sleeve notes
    Friday, February 8th, 2008

    Greg commented on my blog to remind me that Dean's Best of Luna sleeve notes never made it into the European release (although we did get a whole extra CD so I can't complain) so here they are. My OCR software did an OK job but it still required a fair amount of massaging into [...]

  • MP3: Luna - Slide (Peel Session) - 1992
    Thursday, November 22nd, 2007

    Slide was the first track I heard Luna play live and, like so many tracks on Lunapark, it gives me a strange feeling of nostalgia in a way that none of the subsequent Luna albums do - I'm almost tempted to say that it sounds "dated" or "of it's time" but that might give the [...]
