Mine arrived this morning! I wasn’t expecting it to be so big, or to come in a custom cardboard box, like the great big expensive books come in. Gonna have to find room to store that now!

Made a right mess of g […]

Ah, just had an email. It’s coming on Tuesday!!!

As long as they do better than Amazon UK did today. I spent my birthday money on a Charlie Parker boxed set, and had been looking forward to it coming all day. I […]

@black-type – checked Amazon Italy’s website and they say I can expect to receive it by 6 October, so I guess you will be similar.

To be honest, based on the trouble I’ve had with them over the past few years and the pain I am getting every time I bite on the right hand side, if I had the chance of giving up teeth to relive a gig, or giving u […]

Okay @dai – listened to the Harry Styles album and, whilst not to my taste, it’s nowhere near as bad as I expected. But it’s not something I’d want to listen to again and he can count himself very fortunate to ha […]

Opera. It’s horrible.

The way she’s been behaving since she moved out I’m getting less sad by the day. I’m hoping that one of her friends, at some point, will ask her to take a look at herself. I’m just concentrating on doing my best […]

Really pleased about this, because the Us and Them Blu Ray was one of many pre-orders I had to cancel when skintness was thrust upon me due to the divorce. I’m hoping it’s good, but in a ‘…but don’t think I […]

Thanks for that @tiggerlion

Really looking forward to my copy arriving, although I’ll probably have to wait a few more days, cos ai ordered it from Amazon Italy. But worth waiting, as it cost £91 delivered, ra […]

Should have gone to Specsavers! Actually, I really do need to go to Specsavers. My eyes have deteriorated so ruddy much. I’ll still sack Legend though, as there shouldn’t be compilations in a best albums list.

It’d be easy just to look at my own list an pick the highest 5 that don’t appear on the Rolling Stone list and choose those, but that would be boring and very similar to the Afterword top 100 (or however many it […]

I don’t think you were taking your list seriously enough! Songs of Leonard Cohen, at 98 in my list, clearly pips Electric Warrior at number 99!

Thankyouverymuch!

I was 2 weeks overdue anyway,, but you can’t really make fun of December the 10th.

Well, trying to pinpoint my moment of conception I worked out that 9 months before my birth was Christmas Eve 1968. I’m surprised about that, cos there’s normally something good on the telly on Christmas Eve. But […]

She’s on mine and that’s the only list that matters (although my list is only 250 albums long, so I might expand it to 500 to see if Boys II Men make it on)

,,,they won’t

Kanye West is a prize tit, but his albums (apart from his more recent one or two) are actually very good, and 2 or 3 are excellent.

D’Angelo’s albums are amongst the biggest disappointments I’ve had, whilst branching out my musical tastes in recent years. Everything I read about him made him sound ace, so I downloaded his three best known […]

No, I was just basing it on the insipid rubbish my daughter listens to. If I listen to it, like it and buy it, I shall blame you once I start getting ridiculed!

Happy birthday!

It’s my birthday tomorrow. Can we guess what our dad’s got for Christmas?

Well that’s a…what’s the word?…provocative list. I started reading from the bottom but stopped after Boys II Men and Harry Styles to check whether it was a spoof list! There are alway going to be some ‘wh […]
