10 Instrumentals

'10 Instrumentals' is a rare Steven Lindsay promo from 2007, released on the Echo label (SLINSTR1). It is hard to find and essentially features instrumental tracks from 'Exit Music' and 'Kite'. It has been known to surface on eBay so keep your eyes peeled.

Presence

Given that this blog still receives a considerable number of hits, I thought I should make a greater effort provide updates. Firstly, I would like to direct you to Glenn MacDiarmid's website StevenLindsayIsBraw which is dedicated to all things Lindsay and Big Dish and is well worth a look. It features band biographies, pictures, reviews, and rare tracks. What's not to love?

I caught Brian McFie live recently at the Queens Hall in Edinburgh, as part of ex Love & Money singer James Grant's band. Quite fantastic he was as well. If you haven't checked out Grant's solo material, I can heartily recommend doing so.

I have a few other live shows on mp3, from which I will try to upload songs soon.

Finally, a shameless plug for my own band Fake Gods. We are in the process of recording live takes of songs for an EP, provisionally entitled 'Chords Of Human Kindness' which will be out in late summer. These will be uploaded to our website in the coming weeks. Our debut album 'Wine To Water' was released last year and is available to download in its entirety for free via Bandcamp.
