"Cyclops"

A mix cd from David. On first, tracklist-less listen, it struck me as a bit conceptual, though I was at a loss as to what the concept actually was; later, David mentioned that it was somewhat 'ill-formed', which may go some way to explaining that initial response. So, basically a collection of indie rock, with the highlight and track most frequently on repeat being Iggy Pop's "The Passenger" (seguing neatly from Bowie's "The Man Who Sold The World" - in fact, the whole mix flows well), although aforementioned Bowie and Talking Heads' live "Electricity (Drugs)"/"Drugs (Electricity) double are naturally also fab and John Mayer's cover of "Kid A" unexpectedly has considerable merit even apart from the intrinsic quality of the song (which is just as well, since I have my doubts about the 'intrinsic quality' of "Kid A" as a song, as opposed to as a piece of music); the Spoon cut, "Revenge", is also good.
