salvation ala mode with a cup of tea

Ok ok not that Aqualung...apparently this guy, a British guy, real name apparently Matt Hales, records under the name Aqualung, apparently not minding any connotations to the old Jethro Tull song of the same name containing lines like "Sitting on a park bench / eyeing little girls with bad intent" and "snot running down his nose / greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes", etc. I've heard him on xpn with no real impression made here in the Mohelmot caves (see links to xpn and ralph records, left, er I mean, your right, my left).

Anyway, recently picked up a free CD sampler of three songs Aqualung left off his latest CD, Strange and Beautiful, one of which is a rather fun live version of Queen's "Somebody to Love" with the San Fran audience singing back up on the conclusion. It might be available at Itunes or some such so you may wish to check it out. Or ask your local purveyor of stacks of wax to seek this little 3-song gem out for you in their giveaway bin. You'll be glad you did.
