I want to dedicate this one to my mate Skinny for the timely reminder of just how good A House were.

A wee spotlight on the magificent single Endless Art from Dublin's A House. I won't say too much here about them as I'm planning in the near future to do a post looking at their music in a bit more depth.

Feel a need for an update on the 2006 Version so here it is, kind of thrown together in a chronological order of passing!  Mainly those related to the music scene who have passed over to the other side.
