I wonder did Seb Bazza get his ‘A Thousand Moons’ title from a lyric in Pentangle’s ‘Light Flight’?

No worries, Carl. The BJ packed BBC 6CD set (with vinyl best-of planned) is finally coming together – wish I could say more about it at this stage. I keep hoping that someone will turn up the lost 1971 and 73 solo sessions…

Is it me or is he wildly out of time once he starts playing the piece?

There already are such high-end bootleg vinyl labels, Mike. I’m on a mailing list for one bootleg retailer and I’m always amazed that people will spend loads of £ on such items. The range of acts that clearly […]

Thank You Carl and Vulpmneister. Carl very kindly found the Gloria H tracks for me a while back (actually, would you believe, it was Lorraine Kelly sitting in for Gloria that day). And yes Carl, only BBC radio.

On a bit of a tangent, if anyone is registered with Dime and fancies searching for Horslips or Bert Jansch BBC off-airs, I know a man with a project or two who’d be most grateful 🙂

I barely consume new music, Wadmeister, but one of the very few new albums I’ve acquired this year is Wishbone Ash’s 50th anniversary ‘Coat of Arms’. Their classic sound is present and correct and a number of […]

Sounds like fun. I’ll give them a go.

I doubt it. But just do as I do – purchase from Bandcamp (pick your own price – no one can say Stonefish aren’t generous), download WAV files and burn them to CD.

Strange – I attached a B&W but it seems to have disappeared. Anyway, here’s that link in dynamic form (just like Stonefish):

The mighty Stonefish recorded three EPs in Belfast in 1995-96, two of which escaped at that time, one of which didn’t before the cauldronesque trio of pur molten rock imploded into a cosmic […]

Same here – perfect as Frodo in the radio drama.

The estimable Sarah has reached 84% of her target towards this exciting project, which is both artistically exciting and good for her little community near Land’s End, Cornwall – which I have had the pleasure of […]

No one was more enthusiastic about second-division British blues boomers than Mojo Working, our former alumnus. I keep hoping he’ll come back – one of the AW Greats! This vintage Shack was just posted today:

There’s a John McLaughlin connection… In early 1960, Big Pete Deuchar’s Professors of Ragtime (with John M on guitar) tried and failed to get on Vera’s BBC TV variety show.

One of the greats. She beat her own chart record a couple of months ago with a new duet version of ‘We’ll Meet Again’ with Katherine Jenkins.

Not much… but here is Ralphe’s ‘Planetary Citizen’ from the sole LP by the last-gasp 4-piece MO, recorded in 1975.

…but not the Mahavishnu Orchestra line-up you might expect. 😀 Here are John McLaughlin, Ralphe Armstrong (bass) and Narada Michael Walden (drums/vocals) from the very last MO – the one that toured Europe with […]
