It was my favourite until I discovered Aventinus by Schneider-Weissen.

I totally agree with the XTC link. Good observation. I like Red Noise but continuing with your XTC reference, I wish it was more like the first XTC album, more fun. As a huge Bill Nelson fan I have all the Cherry Red box sets and I think today I will pull out the Red Noise box.

Once again, Sparks, for the 6th time, this time at the Queen Elizabeth Theatre on the CNE grounds in Toronto. The 1st time was Lees Palace as a duo over 10 yrs ago. Along the way the Royal Albert Hall, London. Should be great.

#moulettes The fabulous Moulettes are touring Canada this frigid February. They are tremendous. I saw them last night at Hugh’s Room in Toronto. Do yourself a favour and see them if any of the upcoming dates work for you.

Sitting here listening to disc 1 of In Winter by The Unthanks which finally arrived in the mail because the Canadian postal strike is over. The album is another triumph. Well done! #TheUnthanks. A glorious day in store. Hoping to see the band again soon.

Nice homage to this famous cover!
