Yeah, just finished watching with my youngest – fine ending and well thought out. I was lost during season 2 but this season had us gripped from the start. The speech was central to all that happened. There was a […]

And Naid again with Real World kingpin, Peter Gabriel. Their voices mesh together perfectly.

I only heard about this event yesterday-apparently there was a gathering in Fairview Park in Dublin. Not my favourite KB song but it’s great that this exists – long may it last.

I get anxious these days when I hear an unexpected track from a favourite artist on the radio. Tonight on RTE Lyric I heard two tracks in a row from an elderly AW favourite (I don’t want to mention the name for […]

That was 30 mins well spent – Who knew Christy Moore did a solo cover of ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’?

At the half-way point, another one here for Aldous Harding. Thanks @Lemonhope for posting that video on last months mega-thread.
Also happy with Jenny Lewis and Better Oblivion Community Centre. Joe Jackson will […]

Did The Go-Betweens do any covers? Can’t think of any off the top of my head. Grant did one at least on his solo ‘Horsebreaker Star’ album but I can’t recall a GB cover.

Thanks @Deckard. I’m looking forward to this based on the couple of songs I’ve heard so far.

To be dissed by Mini B is a privilege

Just to correct the record, SR, now that I’m home from work and had time to check, it was the Olympic Ballroom, not the TV Club. The mind degenerating is an awful thing…
Max the Dog commented on the post, The first gig you went to… 2 months, 1 week ago

First live music was Knebworth in ’79 to see Led Z. So, if IIRC, the first live band I saw were Fairport who I think kicked off proceedings that day. I didn’t have a clue, but I was happy to be there.

First […]

I must say, though, that closing guitar solo, ‘dueling’ with the string arrangement, is bloody magnificent.

I like the music, Mini, but Bargepole is right about the lyrics, for the most part. “Myriad small creatures…” indeed. And while I love the great slabs of guitar coming down from on high during “What Do You Want […]
Max the Dog commented on the post, Defining moments in your life 2 months, 1 week ago

I did OK in school, but college was never an option and I was never ambitious – I ended up working in a local supermarket. It was fine – good people and was so handy to home that I didn’t even realise I was […]

Fantastic writing, @Chiz. I’m envious of that ability.
Max the Dog commented on the post, Heartachingly beautiful 2 months, 3 weeks ago

Yes indeed, Nick. I was scrolling down to post something similar. Some fantastic brass arrangements on this album – I would class it as her best.
Flying Cowboys is pretty decent and she has a good covers album […]

Sorry, BC – can’t agree with you there. Wonderful song.

OK, I made a right dog’s dinner of this one.
The album I was thinking of was John Hiatt’s ‘Bring The Family’ – original cover art.

Well, Pizon, last week was busy and difficult – tiredness got to me. The one word clue I should have used was ‘Dummies’
