Here’s a blast from the past (45 years ago !) that was released on BBC archive on YouTube the other day – the Nationwide segment on the preperations for Kate Bush’s Tour Of Life.
Video in first comment.
I had seen this before but its nice to see in all its cleaned up BBC restored glory.

EMF are back with “a call to arms with tolerance against the hate-myths of immigration. It features a very special guest performance by Stephen Fry.”
Odds of Christmas #1 are 50/1, which are the same as Sir Clifford of Richards, but much longer than Fairytale of New York.

David Briggs playing Widor’s Toccata from his Organ Symphony No.5 in F Minor on the 1888 Cavalle-Cole organ in the Basilica of St Serin, Toulouse. This very recording came up on my random play just a short while ago.
I love a bit of organ-thunder and the sheer power of this piece is just amazing.
What have you heard (for the first time or once again) that’s extraordinary? Forsake the ordinary and give us all something fantastic. Set our lugholes on fire and stir our souls! Over to you..
