List of my music ratings on Yahoo Launchcast Radio

This post is really an aide memoire for my own benefit; the hacks at Yahoo seem to be on to my multiple identities scam which allows me to listen to my fantastic customized radiostation most of the day. I think, without blowing my own fiddle, that I have amassed the greatest most bestest playlist in the history of cultural history. So without further adieu - the doors have been sealed, the mic is now off - I present my tastes in music for general aquirement...and posterity.

did you just post a message gratifying yourself??!! Aaaaaaaaand queue David Attenborough; Here in the murky backwaters of Kingswood, Tallaght, we are in luck, the lesser spotted Derridarsehole has ventured out into the open. This is him at his most vulnerable, if he vents his 'the masses are fools' venom, he is likely to be captured and gutted by the local pygmies, pale of face and bereft of brain. This sighting has made the entire trip worthwhile, if only to hear the inane pointless ramblings of our hero!

Nice line-up, cant say im familiar with all the artists, but Aphex Twin, Joy Division, Interpol, Beck and Mogwai, all get my thumbs up. While we're being indie kids, I would hasten to add The Velvet Underground, Pierre Bensusan, The Cure, Jacques Brel The Smiths, Simple Kid and St. Germain. Not a Damien or a Benson in sight!! Happy graduation day
