Check out my review for @skypatterns.bsky.social via the link here. Album drops today, which is, of course ,Bandcamp Friday.

RIP Rick Buckler. The Jam were part of my school curriculum along with the two tone stuff. Not sure I'd rock that Sta Press look anymore, but Rick did.

These were my Albums of 2024. File under poor year, great music. Often the way!

Also, I have no clue how Blue Sky works! (as per usual) Can I tag these artists?
