Steve Ison
I Know A Good Thing
I am so happy to see the boy is still there... He says 'Bacharach', I say 'Pentangle'. (See you in the playground after school.) Impeccable guitar work, swoony transpositions, music to get horizonal to.

Everything You Said
If Rumours-era Fletwood Mac had been able to put a decent lyric together, they might have done something as good as this. Listen for the lovely sour notes in the guitar solo, that is, the 'wrong' note that barbershop quartets use to perk up your interest

Psyche's Muse
More Precious than Gold !!!
The Musicators burn their way across the sky, scorching everything in their path... They've got a phaser, look out, they're not afraid to use it... feedback... plinky-plonk keyboard... Required listening for anyone who says 'Should we form a band?' Inspirational genius noise. Now I'm going to take my medication like a good boy, and lie down for a bit

The Rubrics
Loving Paradox (remix)
Q. What does a banjo have in common with a hand grenade? A. By the time you've heard it, it's too late... Please, dear Rubrics, come back, brilliant lyrics, and you made me listen to a atyle of music that previously I'd have run miles to avoid. This is something to study if you think that a song has to have B-flat minor 13ths and A-sharp minor 9ths to qualify as 'musical'

Our Mutual Friends
Let Your Love Surround Me
Declaration of interest: I know this mob, and have jammed with them. They're on here because what comes across is their exuberant love of music; weirdly, their song As I Hold You, a very different beast to this one, doesn't come up on their site, but plays anyway. Come on, you can spare three minutes of your life to try something diferent

Coney Island Steeplechase
Words to Live By
This was the song I posted on the very first Serendipity, and make no apologies for doing so again - summer in a box, and its occasional slips just add to its charm, for me anyway

Mama did tell me not to come... Tight as something that rhymes (non-UK readers, ask a friend from these islands), here's a band in whose company you'd just want to drink too much beer

I remember the first time I heard this thing of loveliness, settling down to hear what he would come up with next. Still waiting

Fortified
You think: okay, I can play guitar a bit, my songs aren't that bad... and then this beggar turns up. Where is he now, and why are James Blunt and David Gray making fortunes whilst this far superior talent seems to have gone off radar?

Dreamlight - Torrey Music Fest 06'
This isn't my favourite song of hers - that would probably be 'Child of War', but hey, I'm fickle. What is does do, though, is show off that voice, no post-production tweaks, what you hear is what you get

Rough as a bargain box of rough things bought from World of Rough in Roughsville, Kentucky, in their 'It's Rough Week!!!'promotion. But I still think I might find it hard to love anyone who didn't see its inherent genius. If you have the stomach for it, read the story of Tralala in Last Exit to Brooklyn, then listen to this howl at full volume

It's not easy to pick just one of Steve's songs, as they cover such a range of styles; so perhaps this one chose itself because a) I'm possibly an unreconstructed folkie at heart, and b) it's July 4th. Oh, and I've been listening to Neil Young recently
