We had this read at my mum’s funeral last year (ameneded to She Is Gone obvs)

Beautiful poem.

Hi-Di-Hi and the episode where Peggy goes for an interview to become a yellowcoat and gets turned down.
The scene where she comes back into Jeffery’s office to thank him for arranging the interview and all the […]

There was an American only radio promo version of FOABP released over 3 12″ discs plus a bonus track. Would love this!

Brucie gets all funky

For those who’ve never seen the Beefheart ad

I’ll add The Toby Jug in Doncaster. It was run by the same people who owned the Duchess in Leeds. So invariably they’d play Leeds one night and Doncaster the next.

Existed between 89 and 92 and to this metal […]

When rock goes disco.

David Byron with “African Breeze”

I chose my user name and the avatar chose itself

One of THE great record shops.

Barry is a top fella too.

Also recommend “Can’t Stand Losing You” which i saw on prime. A documentary about The Police based on Andy Summers’ memoir and featuring the man himself. He was very much the lukewarm water in that band

I’ve been today and in the month since I last visited he’d got a fair bit of new stock in. Picked up Peter Banks debut solo album and the latest Spiritualized reissue.

I’m assuming it’s “Back To Mono” and if so it’s a top shop!
New and used vinyl plus used cds.
Great for a rummage I’ve turned up some great stuff in there.
Plus the owner Jim is a top bloke.

I’d come home from work around lunchtime,had a quick sarnie and then had a snooze.
Mrs Nightfly came home at 4 and said “Have you seen the news? Put the telly on”
I did and was confronted with the smouldering […]

There was also a documentary on BBC4 back in 2011 called Hotel California: LA From The Byrds to the Eagles based on Barney Hoskyns book. It appears to be on YouTube and is well worth a watch. Interviews with all […]

He does get some great stuff in and it’s all in excellent condition.

Do you know the shop “Bug Vinyl”? Also in Beverly up the top end past Browns department store. Small but perfectly formed shop just new vinyl

Have you ever checked Minster out Moose?

It’s a shop I go to every couple of months or so.

Agreed Gangle. Dave Grohl is always entertaining when interviewed and I would hazard a guess he’d be lovely to have a pint with. As for their music – dull as dishwater.
I tried watching them on tv when they […]

Never did the underage drinking bit so started going out regularly in 1987 when I turned 18.
I was a lager drinker then and Fosters had just appeared in the local. 70p a pint.
The British Legion clubs lager […]

Nice one! I can remember playing you one Tuesday night around ten years ago when you beat us 6-0 and some guy scored a hat-trick and then got transferred a few days later. Was it Connor Wickham?

Indeed! I think we got a 90th minute equaliser.
