Days like this is very good. Glad it wasnt his last and I can tell you his live shows still knock spots off most of the competition.

anyone know actual date its on BBC4?

I get their alerts too. Have made several purchases from them and they are as you say very reliable.

@retropath2 I think you will find John Prine is one his own record label Oh Boy records who as far as I know have no relationship with Yeproc. I quite like Yeproc also too Loose, Domino and […]

My favourite JB album. The Load Out and Stay are just magnificent – I know he has written better songs but that is his finest moment for me.

How can you have ordered it a day before me if I ordered it as soon as it was announced @Baron-Harkonnen you great lummox? Or do you have special communications with Cherry Red. Anyway no matter what it seems […]

First three Cars albums very good indeed. On trips to the USA at that time they were on every radio station on heavy rotation as they say.
They had a way with a tune and I never thought of ‘Stacy’s Mum’ to ‘Just […]

@Ainsley not sure your case is rested. Yes I want a cd on a shelf and in my car and wherever else I want to take it. Streaming doesn’t work for me and never will.
There is evidence that artists are delaying […]

I had 4 of the 8 albums on vinyl – long since disappeared from my collection. For a few years they were my favourite British band. This box has been on order since announced by Cherry Red. Cant wait for it to […]

@Retropath2 Habibi classics and Collaborations. Will take a look at the other best of.

I am excited too but can also do without the DVD. Why do they always do this – how many people actually watch a DVD more than once?
I am looking forward to the Sign O the times reissue whenever that comes out

Good on them – let’s knock this digital bollocks into next week.
My CD ordered. Guess I am a dinosaur.

I was very remiss last month when it was the first time I hadn’t posted on Blogger Takeover so apologies if you missed my ramblings. In truth I was very busy and meant to post but when I found time the month had […]

I bought a niche CD that cost me £30 with postage from Argentina. Expensive but it was limited to 300 copies worldwide and if I had waited I wouldn’t have got it.

I think you will find sales of CD’s exceeded anyones wildest expectations. Why would you say that?
The industry wants to take us to the next thing – its capitalism

Agree with Baron. This is wishful thinking on the part of the people who sell us the stuff.
Go to Amazon and try to buy a CD- the first place they will take you is to digital music
Fuck off with your digital music.

Simple really – we were shite with a couple of sessions that bucked the trend.
Our one day cricket has flourished at the expense of our test cricket.

I agree with that @Sewer-Robot if ever there was an example of someone taking ownership of another writers song then this is it.

Sinead would rank in my top 5 female singers – I think she has a beautiful voice and has written some great songs too

I would like to contribute to the conversation. Overpriced pile of shite.
