Imagine, if you can, a time when it seemed like every third record in the chart shared a common gene. And not just a lyrical thread or a particular way of processing the human voice so that it sounds like a singing robot nose, we're talking about a drum sample, one which starts with a "whooh!" and ends with a "yeah!" , and back in the early '90s it was EVERYWHERE.

A month or two ago, Tim got up early and drove to Brighton to record brass on Robb Johnson's new Christmas album, "The Ghost of Love". We've just got the package of finished albums through, and are listening through to it - it's absolutely brilliant. It's a concept album, and if you're looking for a nice, warm, fuzzy, feelgood kind of a Christmas album to shelve beside Cliff Richard and...

A correspondent writes to say he's noted that regional accents disappear in songs, or at least become less detectable, and wonders if there's an explanation. This is true, as a general observation, and there two reasons for it. The first is phonetic. Several of the main identifying features of a regional accent tend to disappear when singing - the intonation (obviously, as a melody replaces it), the...
