"Yo La Tengo on themselves: 
  
"Ira Kaplan is credited with changing the face of British pop music in the 90s with Primal Scream and their massive album "Screamadelica" (which won the first Mercury Music prize in 1992). Here are his current top Ace selections." 

Jorge at Ace on Yo La Tengo: 

"Ira Kaplan is actually a member of the Hoboken, NJ band Yo La Tengo, who have been making consistently brilliant music since the mid-80s, from body-shaking feedback rock to bossa nova-influenced pop. They're a treasure and a joyous act live, with some amazing dance routines onstage. If you're curious and don't know where to start, their recent compilation "Prisoners Of Love" is a good place.""

(ed. note: it was Bobby Gillespie in Primal Scream wasn't it?)

We continued exploring Bob Thiele’s fascinating Flying Dutchman label, putting out Gil Scott-Heron’s second and third albums on CD and vinyl. Those records were as important as Marvin Gaye’s and Curtis Mayfield’s in the new wave of black awareness and commentary emerged in the US in the early 70s. Duke Ellington and Louis Armstrong may not be the names that immediately spring to mind when talking about this surge of black politically inspired music but the albums they made for Flying Dutchman were, in their own way, part of this new movement. Ellington’s album was a live celebration of a century of inspirational black figures. Armstrong’s was a celebration of the jazz pioneer himself, including ‘Give Peace A Chance’ and a re-cut of ‘What A Wonderful World’ - which Thiele co-wrote.
