I’d say *because* of Fleetwood Mac, Lambchop, Japan, David Sylvian and Roxy Music (and the Stone Roses, Prefab Sprout, Aztec Camera, Rickie Lee Jones and Martin Stephenson) that’s a mighty fine list! Add ” […]

Thanks @tiggerlion Like you, I find Radio Four a very soothing voice. I will put it on in the car because I like having it on, just bubbling under. The advantage of BBC Sounds is, of course, that you can […]

Me too. I think. Early 80s for me. ‘O’ Levels. I used to keep a list of songs I’d heard that I’d liked in the back of a notebook. That book is long since gone, but I do remember that the list included […]

A great choice and lovely writing. The phrase “my Dad, in all his glorious inscrutability” reminds me of my own Dad. I often wondered what lay behind his quiet moments. Although it’s too late to find out now, […]

That is the first time I’ve heard Denny Laine singing Say You Don’t Mind. I knew that he’d written it, but up until now I’ve only ever heard the Colin Blunstone version, which I like very much. The Laine v […]

Re: dramatic reworkings of songs. I have only seen Dylan once, at Budapest in October 2003. While I was not as familiar with his songs then as I am now, I do remember standing there struggling to find a tune that […]
