@dai The house we rent is lovely, and right on the beach. The sound of the waves is good medicine.

I agree @dai, and I think my comments above more or less say the same. Lots of the bands (or, in the parlance of the time, ‘groups’) of the early sixties struggled to adapt to the late 60s milieu of course. The […]

I didn’t stop @dai I have all of Wiko’s albums in fact i have the enormo box of Y.H.F. as I do like it. I was speaking generally when comparing to the albums/bands I like more.

Agree with @dai there is certainly nothing bland about Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and the boxset of that album is probably my all time favourite boxset. Big fan of Shannon McNally and will definitely check this out.

@dai to faithfully reproduce this film in 3 hours is a solid achievement. To do it in less than that would have necessitated leaving some very important parts out. The scholars have already got their knives out […]

@dai You make a good point there . Though I agree Technique is virtually flawless, ⬆️, it isn’t quite and none of their albums are.

I have them all on various boots @Dai and I enjoyed listeniing to that comp, thanks.

1300km @dai that’s a bit of a schlep!

I’d agree with you on the Office @dai Think the cringiness of it all was the point.

@dai Thanks 🙏

Good luck with Vol. 2 @dai

@dai Thanks 🙏

@dai thanks 🙏

@dai Thanks, much easier today.

I can’t remember that much else about it @dai other than the general memory that it was excellent. Was it one of those early shows with the spinning songbook, or maybe had an acoustic section of Coward Brothers songs?

It sounds as though your daughter has inherited your interest in music and a curiosity to discover new artists @dai. I saw Faye Webster out of curiosity at Roskilde last summer and was very taken by her […]

DSMD is a work of genius. For me his best alum. One day I am going to soar is also very good – The feminine divine was a bit overblown. I agree with @dai that the cover of this new album is frankly awful and just […]

@dai I did wonder. I hesitated before posting because I wasn’t sure. I’m glad we agree!

@dai – not looking wildly improbable at the moment, unfortunately

It seemed the LPs under ‘S’ were in order, some of them anyhow. Kingston does look beautiful @dai but if I were to go for a holiday I reckon I’d spend quite a few days at Brian’s and maybe do some tidying up […]
