Way too late to edit but the mists have cleared…
Zig-Zag Wanderer – Capt Beefheart!!

Re: New Morning you might be interested in an Alternate New Morning Acetate which is currently available for download on bigozine2.com. It’s years since I’ve listened to the original album but I did enjoy this.

America – The Nice
Born To Run – Bruce Springsteen
Can’t Find My Way Back Home – Blind Faith or Bonnie Raitt
Disaster – The Besnard Lakes
E=MC2 – BAD
Four and Twenty – CSNY
Good Day Sunshine – Beatles
Hi-Heel […]

Yes, I miss Lamarr on the radio. If anyone’s interested you can find many of his old Radio 2 shows online at Gods Eternal Jukebox. No reggae unfortunately but God’s Jukebox, Shake Rattle & Roll and Alternative 60s […]

My taste buds detected a flavour of Cat Power’s The Greatest with a slight essence of Hall & Oates and even a smidgen of Steely Dan.

Hmm, I’m not a Hawley fan (odd exceptions) so that might explain it.

I bought the album on just listening to the title track above. It’s magnificent. Not so impressed by her earlier stuff mind you.

The Lark Ascending – Andrew Litton & Nicola Benedetti with The London Philarmonic Orchestra
Old Man (Neil Young cover) – The Wailin’ Jennys
Anthem For Old Souls – Chuck E Weiss
Workin’ For MCA (live) – Lynyrd […]

I have seen it claimed somewhere. I don’t read reviews apart from the first and last paragraphs. Maybe it was just the promotional blurb. Anyway, like I said, it ain’t.

Thought it was ok but far from the masterpiece claimed by some reviews. I found myself speculating on which films had “influenced” the makers even as I watched. Interstellar – yes, Event Horizon – yes, but in […]

Little Feat’s “Teenage Nervous Breakdown”

Woman At War is an unexpected delight. My film of the year so far.

The magnificent Katie Jacoby occasionally plays a different kind of Flying V (actually its called a Viper). Normally found in the Ed Palermo Big Band and various jazz or classical ensembles she’s seen here […]

No love for Norman?

Don’t know if this was the theme song for IOW 69 but I was there and it got played.

Never much cared for The Darkness. Couldn’t stand the geezer’s voice and his stupid jumpsuits. They just came across as mostly a novelty act that soon lost it’s appeal. But there’s this… an instrumental that […]

So many great players listed so far and a great number of them definitely my cup of tea, but I’d like to mention someone who just got the sweetest sounds from his guitar and never seeing him live was a huge […]

Derek? Bonnie? Megan (Lovell of Larkin Poe)?

A good year I think. In no particular order:

Leave No Trace
You Were Never Really Here
A Quiet Place
A Simple Favor
The Secret Of Marrowbone
Incredibles 2
Three Billboards…
Lady Bird
They Shall Not […]

So here’s my hot seven for 2018:
1. Courtney Barnett – Tell Me How You Really Feel. (Having bought the Double EP, both of her albums , Lotta Sea Lice with Kurt Vile and Live at Electric Lady Studios all this […]

Good Vibrations as a sort of sanctification of the system. Also remember using Rocky Mountain Way in the past and maybe Stevie Ray Vaughan’s Say What.
