>Off the top of my head I happen to think the new Labradford record 'E 
>Luxo So' is a lovely piece of post-rock meets film score record. 

AGREED!  Had the opportunity to see Labradford perform most of this album on
Thursday nite.  They seriously rank up there with giants like Eno, Michael
Brook, and The Durutti Column.  Quite a nice show, liked they way they've
incorporated the Oval/Pole clicks in their repertoire.  I suppose clicking
has become the new scratching.  

What I did find puzzling, however, was how many more people came to see
Godspeed You Black Emperor.  Godspeed is a great band, but I always found
Labradford to be the giants of this genre.  Perhaps I'm just getting old.
:-)

Anyway, I, for one, am greatly anticipating the Labradford mix of LFO...

Mike.
