Of course I cannot know if the terrible accusations against Allen are true, but thanks to this thread, wfh, and streaming + Bluetooth I am now playing Dory Previn’s Mythical Kings and Iguanas. It’s not unpleasant, […]

Didn’t they give you a card with the date and batch details on it? I’ve seen plenty of them on social media all saying which vaccine was given. I will of course take whatever I’m given.

I remember Pratt talking about DC on a Word podcast when his book was published. ‘Guy, much as I love your playing this is not a Peter Gabriel record’

True. This is anecdotal, but I went past the nearest primary school on my lunchtime walk yesterday. Of course I wasn’t going to hang around outside a school counting children, but there were certainly many dozens […]

Funny how Johnson’s road map was meant to be about ‘data not dates’, but almost all I see in the press is a list of proposed dates for stages, and not always with ‘at the earliest’ appended. I’m as keen as anyone […]

For what it’s worth, my other half, who works in the pharmacy of a major hospital, recommends antihistamines and a paracetamol beforehand. That said, she still had some aches and shivers, similar to gopher r […]

Hear hear. The longer term plan at my place of work is for people to work from home most of the time and attend the office in person one, maybe two, days a week, so long as there is a justification and we’re not […]

I can’t see anyone looing for ways to ‘stay in’ indefinitely. What I see is conflict between those who want to abandon restrictions without any precautions, and those who wants to make things as safe as possible […]

An oddity of twenty first century life – It used to be a given in futuristic fiction that visual, face to face communication would be the next big advance from telephones. Now that we have it most people don’t […]

I didn’t know that. Would he have been so flamboyantly himself if he had stayed Denis Pratt? It seems unlikely.

I’ve seen the first three and will watch the others. I have enjoyed the archive footage, and a fair amount of the music. I also learnt quite a bit, for instance where Michael X came from and where he disappeared t […]

They have said on Facebook that the new issue, which we subscribers already have, will have last months CD with it as well. I suppose it was eitehr that or have to dispose of them in some way.

Of course Fairport Convention was a revolving door before settling on the longer lasting versions from Maartin Allcock onwards, though even then Allcock left to be replaced by Leslie and Mattacks by Rowland.

Wasn’t there a story, possibly apocryphal, that a US broadcaster covering Wimbledon reached an agreement to use John Snagge’s commentary for a game as an example of how the BBC did things? They got more and more p […]

Or yes. Violent Playground is a film I would never have seen if it hadn’t been for Talking Pictures TV, and that’s largely about delinquency. To prove it here’s a youthful David McCallum getting down with his bad […]

Does it matter if it is a band or studio/session musicians? I dare say there are those here who could listen to a drum roll, nod their heads knowledgably and say, ‘Ah, Hal Blaine’. I have ‘Everything is Coming Up […]

It’s decent, but not an all time classic. Generally his covers tend from mediocre to poor. And let’s not forget he had possibly the worst cover of all time withy the official bootleg, Live at Crawley (the […]
