Fond memories of Fred, especially at the NME. I always assumed that he was a veteran rock journo but I had no idea that he was older than my Mum!
Max the Dog commented on the post, Your biggest disappointment 1 month ago

I really like Knife, especially the title track, but that might be because I heard it long before I heard HLHR. Still my favourite AC album…
Max the Dog commented on the post, Had your COVID jab(s)? Why not use a few quid of your excess lockdown cash to help those who haven't? 1 month ago

I made a small donation a couple of weeks back after my second jab – I saw an advertisement for it in The Sunday Times.

I played ‘The Talking Animals’ by T Bone Burnett over the weekend and I had forgotten about the closing track – ‘The Strange Case of Frank Cash and the Morning Paper’ – where towards the end of the song our […]

Loudon Wainwright III has a lot of songs where he mentions himself in the lyric. One that springs to mind is T.S.M.N.W.A. on the Career Moves album.
Does that win the hamper for @DanP ?

Just two albums so far but I’ll get more – they’re pretty good.

You got there ahead of me WW. I’ll have to make do with a similar but shorter set of introductions from Canadian band Stars…

I’ve mentioned Villagers more than a couple of times on here and here we are again – a nice arrangement…

Whenever I hear any date in July, not just the 4th, I have to silently sing ‘Masquerade!, Masquerade!’

Also, when I’m disposing of something that has lasted a while and reached the end of it’s useful life I […]
Max the Dog commented on the post, I have a Robins nest on my front porch. 2 months, 2 weeks ago

We have crows nesting in a couple of ash trees behind us – about 6 nests in total. I quite enjoy them and they’re fascinating to watch, but the other nearby residents in the area are not impressed. In fairness, […]
Max the Dog commented on the post, Good news Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton fans – Inside No 9 series six is on its way! 2 months, 3 weeks ago

I caught Motherland while I was waiting for No. 9 and thought it was excellent – I think it’s on Netflix now, so I’ll try to catch up with it – though there’s a recurring pattern of BBC shows being dropped from […]

I have English Electric and I quite like it – what should I purchase next?

Days Without End is in among the pile of books I’ve got at home – I might move it up towards the top…

Doing well, Hombre – I hope you are also. Here in Ireland we are a few weeks (or more) behind the UK in administering vaccinations, but this week I was eligible to register for my first one – so probably during […]

Yes, I got an email from them re the compilation – should be good…

Thanks Jay, but it didnt entice me to explore further. Maybe it will click with me some day…
I just remembered – another one I have is a Gordon Lightfoot collection. The well-known songs are fine – If you could […]

I’m sure there are some on here that will disagree but the only Boz Scaggs album I have is the ‘My Time’ anthology and I’m not in any hurry to buy anything else by him.
Max the Dog commented on the post, Michael Collins 3 months ago

I saw this tweet last night – an astonishing photo and I like the observation about all of humanity…

“I’ve got the world in my window.”

Michael Collins snapped this photo of the lunar module returning to the command module after landing on the Moon. With the Earth in the background, all of humanity is in this photograph, save Collins himself. pic.twitter.com/5StJrvzB0T
