Bit too early for me.too. I’m glad he went electric.

Tried (and failed) to edit. There is a “know” missing after the first word of my answer 3.

For one reason or another, I have not been a great concert goer, so this list of 10 may well end up as a catalogue of all of them. Not quite, but … 1. First Concert – Echo & The Bunnymen at the Poole Arts […]

Super Beat – Nine Below Zero Watch Me Jumpstart – Guided By Voices A Wasteland Companion – M Ward Moribund The Burgermeister – Peter Gabriel Lenny’s Tune – Morrissey Half of me thinks that I ought to […]

@tiggerlion Ignoring that you said that Talking Heads’ similarly titled Thank You For Sending Me An Angel is a bit strong, this thread is a good excuse to post Scottish popsters Friends Again with Thank You F […]

At the risk of trying the patience of the Afterword on matters Hungarian, here is Gábor Presser (ex of LGT, commonly said to be the Hungarian Beatles*) at a concert at which Mrs Pajp and I were present in 2001, […]

Hurrah! Another chance for me to inflict the Afterword with somewhat dated Hungarian pop music. I’d blame @kaisfatdad if I was you – not for the fact that my choices are dated but for the fact that I post them […]

In my typical johnny-come-lately fashion, I have thought of a few more foreign language faves. The first is Vanessa Paradis with Divine Idylle (See also: Dès qu’j’te vois) The second is Youssou N’Dour wi […]

I have posted this here before (an OP about what makes us really happy … or something like that), but I am going to post it again because it is a song that I come back to again and again. I speak Hungarian […]

@jaygee Thanks … and good luck!

I am a lawyer, but not an expert in Judicial Review. Others may wish to correct, or add to, what I am going to say. Apologies if you know this already, but it might help to understand something of the process […]

That’s harsh, isn’t it? Not “foisted”, only “offered”.

@boneshaker On the contrary. Trouble was, by the site came back up, my comment was redundant. I do enjoy a Maigret, although it is some time since I last read one. Your OP has inspired me to correct that.

Listening now and really enjoying it. Thanks. I laughed out loud at the “nervous?” clip from Airplane. BTW, your track listing misses out The Ruts, Staring At The Rude Boys (between David Bowie and The Specials).

Reading through the comments above, Londonbeat came to my mind. At the tender age of 24 and just starting what I choose to call “my career” in London, I was very fond of “9 A.M. (The Comfort Zone)”. I just wat […]
