At the 4:36 mark Jim Gordon does four buddle-umpfs (I asked my friend Andrew, who is a drummer and who actually went to music school what that type of fill was called and he told me they're called a "buddle-umpf", so it's a proper technical term ok (although, if I had my way they'd be called "buddly-bumps")) in a row. Gets me every time.

6:56 to 7:15 (although the whole song leads to this point, really) the chiming guitar harmonics and the drum fills are just spine tingling. In my humble opinion, Polvo have been responsible for some of the greatest guitar music of the past 30 years.

When Arthur starts scat singing at about 1.48. It's just so joyous!

Lee fucking Hazlewood, man: is he a genius, is he having a laugh at everyone's expense, a bit of both or somewhere in between?
Whatever it is, i love a bunch of his songs and 'Rainbow Woman' is one. I mean, just dig this video from Swedish TV 😂😂 The epic porn moustakka, the tight, slightly awkward close-up on the lady as Lee's eyes roam the skies; it's almost too good to be true.
There is a tiny bit i love in particular - when Lee gets to the chorus, he sings "Rainbow woman rainbow, Rainbow woman woman, Rainbow woman".
The cadence of it, the unexpected logic of how GOOD it sounds, just perfect.

I love the way the bass line at the end of verses anticipates the chorus vocal melody. It's a neat little trick.

Really! Gruff Rhys has melody coming out of his toenails.

It's just a din to my ears.

The little sequence that kicks this off and pops up again as a break throughout the song is just perfect. The song itself is nothing special, mostly because of Allbran's charmless vocals, but they (Coxon?) were very good at this kind of thing

The Sonics -"Cinderella"
Not sure if this link will post ( old duffer with limited knowledge and time alert!)
But, Gerry Roslie's unhinged scream just before the guitar solo always makes my spine shake. I love all the Sonics records, but for me this is the best, purely for the vocal delivery. Much better than Daltrey's oafish bellowing on "Won't Get Fooled Again" which I've seen described as 'the greatest rock scream' etc and I say that as a big Who fan.

The Dears-"There Goes My Outfit"
From a 2006 album. I know nothing about this lot, other than that they're Canadian. I've heard other bits by them I've quite liked, but nothing as good as this, which I heard on a freebie cd that came with some magazine or other.
The point at 1.46, where it picks up for the 3rd verse immediately pricks up your ears, then I love it all until the end, with the bands wordless chanting in the background, the point at 2.36 where the singer (whatever his name is..) sings the title of the song, on the 3rd iteration of 'There goes..' and he sounds like he's gritting his teeth and trying to hold it together is something that I find just magical. There have been a few occasions where for some reason, the delivery and how the intensity builds (rather than the lyrics) have made me well up like the soppy old bugger I am.
