Holy doughnuts, Batman.

Melodically it sounds very similar to I’d Rather Go Blind, and I prefer that. The strings are a bit much on this.

I KNEW it!
Arthur Cowslip wrote a new post, NOT buying records out of sheer recalcitrance 19 hours, 12 minutes ago

I thought Black Celebration’s thread deserved a little twin!
It’s more often that I will refuse to buy a record that had been raved about and had five star reviews. And I suppose a lot of the time I’m just being […]

I refuse to post about how much utter tosh it is (although it definitely is) because that’s just what they want, isn’t it? 🙂 I always feel manipulated when I get wound up about stuff like this where the very […]

Good game.

Don’t judge me… No 3, the Sam Cooke song. I’ve never knowingly heard that before. Just one of many gaps in my musical knowledge it seems!

(Have you ever heard of the Doughnut Effect? You can […]

Welcome. I don’t know what NWOBHM means, and I don’t really like Richard Thompson or Steely Dan.

Bravo, deramdaze, you are correct about the chaos of the Beatles’ catalogue at present. Makes me miss the 80s when you had the basic 13 albums on CD and nothing else!

Ah.

Ask 20 different people and you’ll get 20 different answers! But then, that’s the sign of a great artist with a varied and interesting career.

The song of his that really floor’s me is Picture in a Frame. Can’t […]

Eh? What’s wrong with Neil Oliver? I recently read a book of his, A History of Ancient Britain, and really liked it. Has he said or done something wrong that I’ve missed?

Been giving Floored Genius a good few spins over the last few days. Interesting stuff. I definitely prefer the softer/poppier stuff of the later years (by which I mean late ’80s, as this compilation only goes up […]

Haven’t seen that! Yes, will give it a read. Dave, I do like your writing.
Arthur Cowslip commented on the post, ABBA still have faith in you – but is it any good? 1 week, 6 days ago

It’s fine, that new song. Sounds like Abba, and if you had told me it was one of their lesser known songs from back in the day I would have believed you. A little dull to my tastes, but will probably please the […]
Arthur Cowslip commented on the post, ABBA still have faith in you – but is it any good? 1 week, 6 days ago

Yeah I thought that as well. I never thought Abba sounded specifically Swedish (just “European”) but on this new song they do.
Arthur Cowslip commented on the post, Del Amitri / You Can’t Go Back documentary 1 week, 6 days ago

Whenever someone links to Dave Amitri like this, I always wonder is he genuinely a big Del Amitri fan, or if he just once chose a spur of the moment username and now regrets it! 🙂
Arthur Cowslip commented on the post, Beatles Let it Be news..? 2 weeks, 2 days ago

It’s unbelievable that Carnival of Light has still never appeared. You’d think someone, somewhere would have leaked it. The more time goes on, the more it’s legendary status grows in probable inverse proportion to […]
