Sad news. Always my favourite reggae artist. This is my track choice.

Will watch US Open Tennis Women’s Final tonight – Osaka vs Azarenka. Looks like being a cracker.
Sundays mean a Women’s Super League match live on BBC red button or sports website. I’ve been following women’s […]

OK, if you insist… Lucinda Williams.

I listened to Diane Setterfield’s Once Upon A River on Audible. A superbly conceived tale brilliantly read by Juliet Stevenson.

I have total empathy for your A.O.B.

You can add Dinner At The Deviant’s Palace to the list but, for me, The Anubis Gates is the essential Tim Powers read.

Come On Up To The House: Women Sing Waits.
12 Afterword friendly chanteuses (inc Aimee Mann, Phoebe Bridgers, Shelby Lynne & Alison Moorer, Corrine Bailey Rae, Patty Griffin, Roseanne Cash, Iris Dement and […]

I was lucky to have seen him twice with John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers. First time in a pub, then at the Marquee. McVie was with him both times but Mayall’s revolving drum stool featured Ainsley Dunbar then Keef […]

It would only be the Dave Clark Two unfortunately.

Apologies to A Girl Called Eddy but it’s way too soon for this poll. She’ll probably have to be content with being my album of the year.

1 – Seventh Tree – Goldfrapp
2 – World Without Tears – Lucinda […]

Tom Waits… In a field? In DAYLIGHT???!!

Fantastic stuff! I have a large number of these tracks but putting them together like this… not a duffer to be found. I See The Light by Simon Dupre & The Big Sound is one of my favourite 60’s tracks but am I […]

I think the most interesting statistic from this whole exercise is that 98 Afterworders recommended 499 different albums from the 1980s/90s. Who’da thunk it? Cheers @craig42blue.

I can’t say there’s one song that I’ve held onto down the years, but in these troubled times this has given me a big hug.

Taken my time choosing the ten. Bought loads of vinyl & cassettes during this period but they’ve all gone now and very little has been replaced on cd or digitally. I’ve limited myself to one album per artist […]

Don’t know how long it took you to put it together but it was certainly worth the 93 minutes of my life listening to it. Splendid stuff. Thanks for sharing.

Still the same number one as last time and I notice that no-one’s including Various Artists collections so I’m reluctantly leaving Nuggets out of the list on this occasion.

1- Seventh Tree – Goldfrapp
2- #1 […]

… and some Nut Gone Flake!

What you need is a Gorilla…
