Some interesting workout programmes being used. Mattress on the wall for hitting balls into, weightlifting using hotel furniture..

I saw Richard Thompson at Womadelaide a few years ago. Beautiful afternoon under huge trees with RT solo and a set comprised of taking requests. Drunkards Roll, no problem, Keep Your Distance sure. Then a string […]

He likes long form stuff on old school music and musicians. He doesn’t reckon there is much interest here these days. Have tried to get him back but not likely.
Good that he is still writing and got a fair a […]

Sorry Sir, yes Sir, that’s him, big bloke with a man-bun.

I was wondering what guitar afficionados think of this from Mojo /Concheroo’s blog

Later in 1968 the J-45 was heavily modified. The pickguard was removed, the Gibson headstock decal was hidden, the white […]
