This again, gets better with each play. perfect lazy Sunday groove

Hiedi Can Piero Manzoni

Thanks, good thought that I'd missed in the red mist...

Mad Max Eddy Merckx Mario Merz

Sorry to hear that. I was very tempted to buy a ticket for Nu-Civilisation this evening but life got in the way. I may even make the rescheduled date (just listening to Nathaniel facey now, he's a very fine player and I'd love to hear him play Harriott) I didn't know about the play at Hampstead. You were lucky to get the NT tickets, I hear they went in a flash.

Discogs now automatically calculating and adding VAT cost for sales from Europe. "frictionless trade" my arse, thanks Boris and all the other Little Englanders

Well spotted!

A step closer to it coming home but Italy are still my favourites to win as they've been consistently the best team

Magnificent match between Italy and Belgium. Italy have been my team of the tournament, they can pass the opposition to death. However, their tactical innovation is based largely on Spinnazola, my player of the tournament so far. Such a shame to see him so badly injured. His absence could make a big difference.

Thanks Niko, I was on a train battling patchy wi-fi, suspected it would be findable

That recording sounds very interesting, is it available? Quick search didn't really help

Andy Flower Robert Plant Joe Root

wallowing in nostalgia, playing this and other Go-Betweens albums whilst reading Tracey Thorn's 'My Rock 'n' Roll Friend' about her relationship with Lindy Morrison. I loved this band from about 1983-88, saw them many times. Albums stand up well, I think.

That's a fine listen

Just flicked back to the start of this thread to see that it's ten years (!!!) since felser's recommendation prompted me to buy the 'Asha' reissue, my introduction to McNeill. How time flies when you're listening to great music.

Yes, second what CT says. I don't know 'Mandela' though, sounds like I should

Glad for you that they finally got around to it! LP still very much in service

Jeff Baxter Donald Fagen Ron Moody

Sounds like a good combination to me

Easy Listening today then... 'Rings' is one of Togashi's I don't know. It's solo isn't it?

Wasn't his finest moment and was definitely a red card tackle but butcher is taking it a bit far. It wasn't a Harald Schumacher on Batiston.or even a De Jong on Alonso. That aside, he always plays well in an England shirt.

That reviewer on Discogs is "idiosyncratic" to say the least

no, not taking it to heart at all, it's not that important. I'm not sure we'll see too much dynamism under Southgate but I can forgive him that if we keep winning but when we lose to Ukraine and haven't unleashed our creative players then he's in trouble The hype over here today is ridiculous, you'd think we'd got to the final by beating Germany not the quarter-final

His safety-first conservatism is an issue but so far it's worked. Against better teams it may become a bigger issue.

But what about the elastic Saka and Grealish?
