Vinyl, Mott, Weller, Soul, Small Faces Dansettes, AFC Wimbledon and cheese. #MDANT. One is starved of technicolor up there.
Listening for a wet Thursday afternoon, Annaiis and Grupo Cosmo (soulful Latin grooves) and Kokoroko 'Could We Be More'.

Glad I caught Benny Trokan's support set at Cadogan Hall last night. His mid 60s beat group influenced songs were great.

Lee Fields and the Expressions at Cadogan Hall tonight. Wonderful.

What a lovely evening in the company of Edwyn Collins at the Festival Hall tonight. Career spanning set. Quite an emotional night really. Support, The Hanging Stars were great.

Great evening, Richard Hawley Q&A with Steve Lemaq and hour plus long accoustic set. Standing At The Sky's Edge had the hairs on the back of my neck standing up.

I've been looking forward to a beer all day. Yamas!!

Afternoon listening, Bronco 'Ace Of Sunlight' from 1971. Jess Roden on lead vocals. Picked this up at Langley Records, Molesey 10 or so years ago. Brand new, had been lurking in the racks since 1971 I reckon.

'Departures and Arrivals' the latest Curtis Harding LP. Well worth the wait.
