Who, me?!
No, not this time. He’s being a selfish objectionable idiot over this, and he’ll get no defence from me. Still think the last album is great, mind….

Last nights concert by Duncan Chisholm was stunning – he has such a a beautiful warm tone on the fiddle. Just gorgeous music making in the impressive surroundings of the Kelvingrove Museum. And the good news is […]

I’ve signed up too – even if I end up not watching that many of the concerts ( though there are a few I fancy) it feels like a venture worth supporting in these times. Let’s hope they can be back live next year.

Fabulous review. I hadn’t heard of this but it’s added to the list on the basis of this recommendation. Not least because anyone who is reading A Dance To The Music of Time (as mentioned in the book thread) is cle […]

Sad news. 7 Up is indeed a beautiful and moving piece of work. A word too for Coalminer’s Daughter which is one the great music biopics.

Gorgeous stuff Colin, thanks for posting. Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh has a fabulous voice. Great band; sad never to have seen them live.

If there is one small consolation about such shitstorm times it is that it can stimulate some artists into great work. John Fogerty has just released this – his first new song in eight years – and it has all the […]

‘I am not necessarily correct’. Should be the prefacing comment on just about every post here. I will keep working at the Bruce – to be fair, it’s probably only just had the regulation six listens.
I have been […]

Great work Lodes, thank you for doing this. Pleased to see four of my choices in the Top 5. The only one I didnt go for is Bruce. I love Bruce, and Western Stars is magnificent, but to these ears Letter To You […]

About ten of us voted for it I think, the vast majority of whom placed it first or second. Truly a record you either love or hate.

Genuinely surprised to see Lodes’ favourite album of the year placed so lowly. Are you sure you’ve counted ALL the votes for Fetch the Boltcutters?

Two of my top choices tied at number. 42. It’s an outrage I tell you. But, don’t shoot the messenger. Yet. Enjoying your work thus far Lodes.

Yes. I remember talking to one of our many members of staff from Northern Ireland just after she started and talking about our recruitment policies and the need to monitor staff diversity. ‘What, you mean like are […]

Great post Colin. How ironic that Northern Ireland is the bit of the UK that can continue to enjoy many of the benefits of the EU. The passport thing is a big deal of course. My English daughters have never been […]
