I hate being limited to how many songs can be played by one artist within a certain time period. With that in mind, I opted to present a range of artists that in my opinion come from the same sort of musical space as the brilliant Mark Hollis; The The, Japan, The Blue Nile, Prefab Sprout, Shearwater, Steve Winwood, Stomu Yamashta and Aztec Camera are all included. To break things up, there’s a new tune from Teenage Fanclub with related ephemera from Big Star, T. Rex, Owsley and more. Mark Hollis basically walked away from the music business to be a Dad, a feeling I can definitely relate to. He made music that managed to make a commercial dent but more importantly, left behind a unique sonic legacy that will quite easily outlast our lifetime.
