Fuddle whilst Rome burns. But what's it matter to stay everyone's best mate.

What's so wrong with being a vegetarian or a vegan anyway? Plenty of people manage, very happily and healthily. If meat is unsafe or unavailable people will survive and may even begin to question the farming and production methods that make meat, especially the processed kind, so cheap and readily available. Wouldn't do any harm if folk thought more about the environmental sustainability of meat consumption or the impact on livestock either.

It's good but not nearly as good as the one classic he's already been partially responsible for (apart from the Talk Talk later albums). This one

New Braxton release. Duet with harpist. https://idischidiangelica.bandcamp.com/album/duo-bologna-2018 Sounding good on the first run

Gearbox Records tweeted today that they will be releasing a new Tolliver recording this summer entitled 'Connect'. No further details as yet. They usually do a good job so I'm looking forward to knowing more Watch this space, I guess

I was there. I had completely forgotten about the Jo Boxers, sparked briefly and dimmed quickly I seem to remember This was what was really happening then and who the Jo Boxers were riding on the coat tails of

Thanks for highlighting this. It was an interesting listen hearing such well loved tunes recontextualised.

For the first time a drop in delivery efficiency is unsurprisingly apparent with Royal Mail. I just thank my lucky stars they're still out there working with sickness levels increased. I know my postman well (a positive byproduct of buying LPs) and I know they're under the pump at the moment.
