Happy 75th birthday to Tina Weymouth. Love this photo of her and Grandmaster Flash, taken by Laura Levine in 1981. Spotted at MAC's fab Golden Age of Hip Hop exhibition in Marseille several years ago

Oh no. RIP Mani. Great musician and lovely man. Always laughing. My mind drafts back to a long convivial night in a bar overlooking Amsterdam. Talking music. Talking football. Go well, man.

The Specials released Ghost Town on this day in 1981. It was recorded in the basement of the house on the right, which was John Rivers' studio on Woodbine Street in Leamington Spa. My photo taken in 2021. A commemorative plaque has been added to the the building since then

It's a time for relaxation and contemplation. And as I stepped out this sunny Bank Holiday morning, it made me realise just how big the power tool industry is in this country.

Went to the game changing billion pound stadium again, the one that will generate the funds never to leave the squad threadbare. Hot water ran out before the game. Milk for coffee ran out after - but not told until coffee ordered and paid for. Chairman got a £3m bonus last year. Someone’s laughing.

Love this map of the record shops of Soho 1946-1996, put together several years ago by the British Record Shop Archive and the Museum of Soho. Shopped in so many of these in the 80s and 90s, including the much missed Atlas, Daddy Kool, Groove, Mr Bongo, Cheapo Cheapo, Division One etc.
