I find A Rainy Night in Soho so beautiful/sad I can barely listen to it - I think Bob unexpectedly covering it might have floored me. www.hotpress.com/music/bob-dy...

This is a lovely bit of writing about a wonderful place.
I was at the first Pogues show last week and the look on Spider's face...the Barras was special to him. And Peter gets that, and captures it here in the details.

To mark the forthcoming 40th anniversary of the Barrowland sign, I wrote a Small Finds piece celebrating it and the venue it graces. smallfinds.substack.com/p/small-find...

Brilliant, unbridled mayhem at The Pogues tonight. It’s so cool when the band loves the Barrowlands as much as the audience.

Halfway through The Agency. Really enjoying it - slow burning but each episode moves thing along, uncertainty over how things will play out and strong performances all round.

Some new music I've been enjoying recently, including some I missed last year or got into late '24
Very happy these guys are still making new music. Gets stronger as it goes on. In a similar vein of recent releases, variation but still has louder moments. Hits a lot of sweet spots. Very good
