I usually put a black disc with a hole in the middle on the turntable and place the needle on it. Is this a record?

No rules have been broken and proper procedures followed, yet this group of MPs has accused one of the UK’s foremost athletes of “crossing the ethical line”. What does that actually mean? Who set such a line […]

Just discovered First Aid Kit and am enjoying both ‘The Lion’s Roar’ and their new album ‘Ruins’. Superb songs and close harmony with a country vibe. Lovely stuff.

As an old-time OGWT fan, I enjoyed it. Back in the day, you never knew what you were going to get on the OGWT and Friday’s show was no exception. I thought Gary Newman was excellent, Kiki Dee and her talented […]
