Free at Liverpool Stadium – 1971

Worst has to be Lou Reed at the Royal Albert Hall, in I think 2000.

I just don’t understand how anyone likes Blur – to my ears Damon Albarn’s voice is like fingernails down a blackboard. Two good friends of mine love them. They have tried to convert me, but I just cannot abide […]

Hopefully yours will arrive in the next day or two, but if it doesn’t PM me and we can make arrangements to ensure you at least have something to listen to.

TBH, I never got into Song.
I should have held onto my copy and then I could see how I liked it now, but we all make mistakes.

It is more like Song, but it sounds a lot less bleak than that album.

My copy arrived today. I’ve only had time to listen to the first few tracks, but it sounds lovely.

There are 91 tracks from this on Spotify, plus another “new” compilation titled Sometimes It Happens: The Early Years, but I can’t be arsed to cross-reference to check whether anything on that isn’t on Hard Luck […]

I have been listening to this collection on Spotify.
The thing that amazes me, and I don’t think anyone has noted it above, is that there is a performance of Hokey Pokey on Marc.
Incongruous doesn’t come into […]

Aargh! Does that mean I am not a real bleeding heart liberal?

O me misererum.

If ianess was here he be pointing the finger accusing me of virtue signalling, politically correct behaviour.

I am agog with anticipation for the arrival of my copy.

I will join you and we can pool resources to pay McIntyre to disappear to Mongolia.
Though we would still probably hear him, because as far as I can see his idea of comedy just seems to be run around the stage […]

Clearly, I’m in a minority here.
Other presenters on other Channels doesn’t concern me overly.
It’s interesting that the people who do impress me on the BBC, for instance the current Newsnight crew, don’t appear […]

Well there were four of us there.
I recall it as a good gig but not a great one. The reason being I was disappointed because my wife and I had gone to see Aimee, yet she gave half the gig to Michael Penn, who […]

No he doesn’t!
Wrong, wrong, wrong.

Thank you for that.
After posting my comment above I remembered when I read that section of Pegasus Bridge I shouted out loud something like “the f*****g stupid, selfish bastard”, I was so outraged, leading to my […]

Before we get dewy eyed over Lord Lovat and his piper, be aware that the man was pretty much a murderer of his own troops.
In Stephen Ambrose’s book, Pegasus Bridge the story is told about how the strategically […]
