    Seven Songs for the Week #49

    Jason Carty

    It's hard not to have an in memoriam track on these playlists every week, but Karl Wallinger was only 66 and that seems too young. He wasn't very prolific, but that wasn't the point. If you knew, you knew. Oddly, for someone who made music that looked back, he was ahead of his time. Too early for the Britpop years, and way too early for the internet, because if there had been music blogs and social media in 1990, I'm sure World Party would've done well, because people who like World Party like other people who like World Party. And the internet loves a clique. RIP Karl.
