Have you all got Diamond Mine yet? I haven't heard a more affecting piece of music for a long time.

Manchester - but really it's one to listen to at home. Although even the most jocular of banter onstage doesn't negate the emotional punch of it all.
This is the one that really gets me. It's a whisper of a thing, really, about the redemptive powers of fatherhood, my namesake, and it makes me go all tight throated:
Listen:
King Creosote and Jon Hopkins - Your Young VoiceDads and fatherhood at the very front of our minds at the moment, people - please send us positive thoughts.
