Amused by the seriousness afforded to John Cale's collab with pop queen Charli XCX. You can fool some of the people all the time etc.

Paul Kelly the singer doesn't like 'Imagine'. It's odd how this has become accepted knowledge. It's a really strange and interesting song about the concept of nothingness, it's wild!

I remember that one! Must look it out again. Meanwhile, if anyone's up for 1666 and all that, here's my novella Coldwell. Plague, the machinations of power and a strong dash of folk horror in the shape of an underground giant.

As 'Folk Horror' seems to be all the rage amongst the woolly jumpered hipsters, I recommend 'Riddley Walker' by Russel Hoban. A book that I often think about. It's super wyrd, unlike much else, and brilliant. I give it 5/5 of your white man stars.

It's a good start to see the fall of Andrew Saxe Coburg. It's not enough though. Let's hope it sinks the whole vile firm, and all the rotten talentless creeps who operate under their con job operation. We don't need these thick arseholes.

A couple more BBR songs are piling on the Spotify streaming, and our cover of Terry Jacks Seasons In The Sun is currently number 8 in the Tiktok chart. Which, is probably something. I've no idea what's going in!

We went to the Mathew Colliings art thing at Edgware Road. Brilliant drawings and excellent words. MC doesn't give a shit about who he annoys. Loved it. 5 white man stars from me. My fave: 'Moliere and Samuell Becket Despise Starmer' Bless you Mathew Collings.

Christ, this 'Becoming Led Zeppelin'film is dull. Total hagiography and a white wash. Gave up half way through as Jimmy Page droned on about his studio greatness.

The fade for bands soundtracking silent movies is entirely a product of 'curator' ( the worst word in English) culture. Artless and crass. I have spoken.
