Stuff I've been looking at

Andy Kaufman - Everything going to shit perfectly.... Simply a master/genius

 The Fall - At first I think they can seem a bit underwhelming, what with all the repitition and that and maybe perhaps because they are supposed to be this kind of benchmark to all music (Peel), but once you get involved you really get sucked in. You realise all the positive things said about are just true, they just are the best band ever really. Even when they seem to do conventional things (Like a compilation album or a song featuring on an advert) it doesn't seem conventional or careerist... Mark E. Smith is the real deal.

Andy Milligan - Always get the sense that something deeper/weirder is going on than just this horror/b-movie madness, but is also brilliant at face value! You always know when you are watching a Milligan film when he is on.
