The Boo Radleys, Brave Captain, Martin Carr - A Bittersweet Pop Selection

The Boo Radleys, Brave Captain, Martin Carr - A Bitterweet Pop Selection
(MP3 Podcast on www.ParisDJs.com) 2010-12-19

The Boo Radleys were one the best Pop bands of the 1990s, from shoegazing riffs to psychedelic songs and britpop hits, they paved the way for the next decade's UK stadium pop groups. Their leader Martin Carr, one of the most talented songwriters of the last 20 years, never stopped marrying experimentation with pop melodicism, he's been running a critically-acclaimed solo career for 10 years now. This selection, on the bittersweet side of his music rather than the obvious hits and anthems, should fit perfectly with this sunday's snowy mood of Paris...
