Playlist 24.10.11

For last night's show, I was aiming for a live session with Anthony Toner and Eilidh Patterson. They both have fine records out, they work together well and I'm always keen to have uplifting company on a Monday evening. Unfortunately, Eilidh had a sore throat, but Anthony came in anyway, with guitar and a stash of CDs. He performed three tunes from the new album, including the most charming 'East Of Louise'.

Anthony plays it as an impish rag while the words pay tribute to a cool individual. Louise is precocious and fun, royally absent-minded and prone to issues with her disc drive and her romantic life. She parties like Holly Golightly and is surely related to 'Queen Jane Approximately', 'Visions Of Johanna' and 'Absolutely Sweet Marie'.
