My lad is on a school trip* today. He had to be at school an hour early, so my internal insomniac woke me up extra early (at 4am) just to be sure.
Tomorrow there’s a BSI audit at work, so today I am correcting typos in the world’s longest and most boring document.
Please post me something to keep me awake this afternoon. Thankingyouverymuchly.
(*) Warwick Castle

That would work for me. Up and sprinting across the room to turn it off.

Warwick Castle, perhaps more than any other baroque English band of the psychedelic era, wore their ruff collars with some aplomb. Featuring the plangent tones of lead guitarist Stan “The Man” Dawes backing the warm vowels of vocalist Edward Percival Hunting Provost-Marshall, underpinned by the rhythm section of Dolly Villeneuve (St. Albans only female bass player) and the swinging jazz inflections of Alsatian drummer Kob Knut, they found their greatest moment when they met and recruited sitarist Leech O’Dovanan (fresh from his stint as guru to the stars in Rishikesh) and hit the charts with “Hands Off My Battlements”. From that point on it was a gradual but pretty decline, leaving us with a trail of beautifully pastoral singles and the faint smell of patchouli. Their unexpected reformation, 50 years later, is a time-warp delight. They’re in the studio today playing live, and after this short announcement, we’ll hear the song that put them on the map, and three more from them later.

Ha! I saw the Warwicks at Batley WMC in ’65 when they were still gutbucket R’n’B peddlers Harold and the Hares.

This song makes me high as a kite.

EDIT:
ATM: Is it possible to post an individual Spotify track here? If so, what have I done wrong?
Here’s a live rendition instead.

No, Sir, I definitely couldn’t hear snoring. ISO 9001, sir! Erm… what was the question again?
