This week just gone

The week on No Rock & Roll Fun:

The ten most-accessed individual stories:

1. RIP: Casey Calvert
2. Jury to watch R Kelly sex video
3. Casey Calvert: Cause of death?
4. Lily Allen changes her clothes
5. Are they searching 'McFly Gay' or 'McFly naked'?
6. RIP: Kevin DuBrow
7. Beth Ditto strips naked, mouths off
8. Morrissey tells NME immigration is bad
9. Nelly Furtado says no to Playboy
10. Heather Mills hopes that she doesn't get called Lady Mucca after doing porn in her past

These were the new-ish releases:


Johnny Foreigner - Arcs Across The City At long last - the melodopunk kings of the 7" come to album


The Violets - The Lost Pages Banshee-esque (as in Sioux, not screeching) and none the worse for that


Various - Pillows and Prayers 25th anniversary re-release of the sampler which brought you Marine Girls, Monochrome Set, Attila The Stockbroker


Squeeze - 5Live Sadly, not a collection of Simon Mayo sessions


Jim Bob - A Humpty-dumpty Thing Half Carter USM solo album with egg-lion seal of, um, freshness


Rufus Wainwright - ...Does Judy! Judy! Judy! No, no, JUDY - it's not a DVD of Kaiser Chief covers


Ute Lemper - A Tribute to Edith Piaf This is a tribute to Piaf, note - not spitting in the audience and threatening to have them beaten up


V/A - Another Slice Of Vintage Cheese Poorly thought-out compilation album based on "cheese" - although it includes T-Rex, The Motors and Sheena Easton, none of which are entirely cheesey


Gallows - Orchestra Of Wolves So how "cool" is it to let WEA bring out a rip-off "special edition" five months after the first, then?
