An old friend, and fellow singer-songwriter, Tim O’Connor sent me this wonderful pic over the weekend that he’d taken of me playing at one of CC/Brickwall’s legendary Funbox shows many moons ago. Thank you so much for the memory, Tim. I’m incredibly grateful to you. x #MusicSky #blackandwhite

A comedic genius. ❤️
Ever the master of his craft, Rik Mayall switches effortlessly and hilariously from Alan B’Stard to Rick/Richie in this Comic Relief sketch. Brilliant.

An early publicity photo by Philip Ollerenshaw (who, random fact, was the official photographer for Take That in the ‘90s!) very much in the style of Astrid Kirchherr’s early Hamburg photos of The Beatles. x

“History doesn’t repeat itself, but it very often rhymes”, as Mark Twain is often reputed to have said. In America right now, ‘never again’ is happening again, only this time the Gestapo are now called ICE, and the Brownshirts are now the National Guard…

Been playing this beautiful 12-string in the studio earlier today, adding overdubs to what will more than likely be the next single. 😊❤️ xxx

I’ve always had a great interest in Space. When I studied for my BSc (Hons) degree, aside from the compulsory courses I had to take, two of my elective courses were ‘Astronomy & Planetary Science’, and ‘Cosmology’.
And so, today’s news saddens me immensely. 💔 #jimlovell

My favourite track from the Help! LP, released sixty years ago today. John never really rated this song, but I absolutely LOVE it! And fellow Beatle People will no doubt be aware that he later recycled the verse’s melody and used it for ‘Being For The Benefit of Mr. Kite!’ ❤️

Trump’s administration are trying to claim there were 250,000 attendees at his ego parade, yesterday. 😂 The pictures tell a different story. Even the people on the podium look as though they’d rather be somewhere else… 🤣
