Sorry, meant 'getting' the attention. 😀

It's a great album... Sadly not going the attention it deserves.

Sadly not much point sharing this as you have to be an MU member to read the guidance. Blinkered thinking from @wearethemu.bsky.social in my view. If you want to encourage new membership, gatekeeping evidence that you are in touch with musician rights probably isn't a great strategy.

There's still more profit in CDs amazingly. Both Bandcamp and Paypal take a large chunk and the selling price is lower. But CDs are a niche format now.

Hi Pete, yes Bandcamp works best especially on Bandcamp Friday. CDs even better (assuming you still buy them) but we don't have all the titles in press, and Bandcamp has all the titles. Thanks for the support.

It's been huge fun to do and not that expensive. Hardest part was fabricating a new manifold for the turbo. Need to do a better one once my TIG welding skills improve.

Looks amazing, brilliant work. Always fancied a Caterham or similar, but only room and time for one sports car project.

Yes kind of a continuous improvement and modifying project on the TVR over quite a few years now. I've put in a new power steering conversion, new ECU, brake upgrades and last year did a new camshaft and turbo conversion and front end respray. Will have to do a chassis refurb at some point...

Thanks Paul. Nice Stag in your cover photo. My dad had a white 1974 one.

Also worth pondering even if the successful guys like Steven Wilson have other jobs in audio not just making their own music.

I thought I really did want to be a full time professional but I'm really not so sure now. Virtually anything else I do will pay better and I still get to do music my way without any commercial pressures or deadlines.
