Mo Do



Dot Allison's Mo' Pop single from her first solo album (after leaving the still wonderful sounding One Dove) is a glorious slice of left-field pop from 1999. A kind of 60s soul-pop, Dot's breathy vocals make the verses dreamy and half asleep and the chorus a huge waking up. The follow up a few years later, We're Only Science, saw her go electro-clash. This is a cracking song.


I don't know what's going on with the way the link looks- it won't let me change it for some reason.

    I second what Mr H says about Box Net and it isn't too expensive.

    Did you buy the last album Room 7 1/2?

    By the way that Moon Duo album is the dog's gonads.

    Gonads - what a great word that is.

    Re. Box Net - I pay nowt for it: and I really like that people can listen to tracks without/before downloading. 'Sampling' baby; not 'pirating' ya kna'.
