The album is so raw and even now sounds fresh. A sort of live recording like you’re in the same room, you feel it.

Hips & Makers is an astounding album, and this is my favourite. Perhaps one of the best sounding songs of all time. Perfection.

Saw “Only Angles have Wings” for 1st time last night. A screwball comedy? I’m not sure that’s how I’d describe it, 2 dead, 2 broken bones, a gunshot wound, and a slap across the face! But, how many people got to say “I slapped Cary Grant!” - no innuendos please, it’s too easy. #criterion #romcom

It’s kinda X-ray like and ghostly, quite strange.
Missed yesterday’s #swans #BirdoftheDay because of a migraine but here’s a low-light angel for the weekend. (The little squiggle is a car headlight on the road in the distance.)

Really nice idea and lovely. Better than binning um.
So, I’ve been trying to work out what to do with those orrible citrus nets (that we can’t recycle in our area). Came up with a woven dish scrubber made from wool scraps. Still not sure about the plastic but at least it has a bit more life and is washable. #recycled #rescuedrubbish #upcycled

I’m very much a cow person so any chance of taking photos of them I will, even if it’s not obvious at the time. This is a snap on my phone, no AI or photoshop. #pareidolia
