sovay: (PJ Harvey: crow)
I had a miserable night. [personal profile] spatch played Ian Dury to cheer me up, starting with "Reasons to Be Cheerful, Part 3" and eventually getting "There Ain't Half Been Some Clever Bastards" stuck in my head; it worked. I am also pleased to have discovered Oppenheimer Analysis, because I had no idea there ever existed a British synthpop duo in the '80's whose frontman performed in character as J. Robert Oppenheimer. New Mexico (1982) is essentially a concept album on the expected themes (and some others) and it's great. I suspect many people, myself included, do not associate "danceable" with the Manhattan Project and the Cold War.
