Thanks for asking, mate.
Most recently, Abducted and Implant by Eat Static, which I hadn't heard in years. Absolutely amazing, even in the spare room on half a pint of cider rather than off my face in a field in the middle of nowhere.
Last night, Rite and Rite 2 by Julian Cope, which arrived on Saturday along with some other Copey stuff. Just as good as I'd heard.
Oz (formerly Nizzy but I had to reregister).

Right this second, Kraan - Wiederhoren. Weird German jazzy / rocky kinda stuff. Strange, but good.

Wow - I used to work with a guy who had reviewed LPs for the Daily Record in the 70s. He had loads of promos lying about the house and brought in a Kraan live one for me as I'd been talking about Can, Amon Duul etc.
I don't remember much about it other than there was loads of sax on it and a song called Andy Nogger, Superhero or something. 
They obviously weren't considered cool enough to include in Cope's book (although a lot of the stuff he recommends, including the Cosmic Jokers and Guru Guru albums I bought were crap). Bah, stupid personal heroes.

Yes you're quite right. The album would have been Live 1974 and the song is called just Andy Nogger. Apparantly it's a stab at mass consumerism. I discovered them after a spell in Germany where they are obviously much better known. Have to disagree with you about Guru Guru though, I think at times they are fantastic and to see them live, especially at a festival is one hell of an experience. If you get the chance have a listen to Kanguru, 2000 Gurus or Wah Wah, or even better, if you have 30 quid you don't know what to do with, then grab a copy of the triple live set 30 Jahre Live. I think that will change your mind. Think I'll get even stranger now and put on some Faust.

In the car, we have Goldblade - "Rebel Songs" John Robb (ex Membranes) fronting this brilliant punk rock band
In the Kitchen we have Jim Murple Memorial - "Play The Roots"
Astoundingly wonderful jamaican R&B band from France, there's Blues, Jazz, Easy Listening, Jamaican R&B, Mento, Ska, Reggae, Rocksteady and all kinds of wonderfulness played low-fi in there.
on the big stereo (which is off right now because coronation street is on  ) is Dropkick Murphys - "Sing Loud, Sing Proud" Brilliant, just f-ing brilliant Punk/Irish/Rock band from Boston Mass, the home of so many of my fave bands

Right now I'm listening to "Solar Music Berlin" on disc 1 of the Grobschnitt release "The International Story." This is the best version of that song ever released.

Same with Electronic Meditation. Maybe they need another chance.
