There’s a comment that the original Simpsons series were written by a group of eclectic nerds who immersed themselves in counterculture and unusual, off-the-wall, media. The newer series are written by… people who grew up watching The Simpsons.

On the eve of a big birthday I’m drinking whiskey and listening to The Levellers. Might as well grow old disgracefully!

I organise my CDs by first name.
Bob Dylan is under B
Neil Young is under N
With the exception of artists that start with ‘The’ (which I ignore and file under the letter of the next word) I have achieved alphabetical purity.
Isn’t sorting by surnames just a throw back to a more formal era?

I run a small independent record label and I’m looking to connect with songwriters, artists, bands, and anyone working around the independent music scene.
If you make music, help others release it, or just love it, let’s chat.
What are you working on right now?

So I saw @mike1infive.bsky.social last night for a few beers here in deepest Devon, and like some kind of merch wizard he magicked up some unexpected Gozer Goodspeed badges for me & a LAL mug too! Don't ever let anyone tell you that being signed to an independent label doesn't have its perks! 😄

Did you know that if you make a coffee in a Lights & Lines coffee mug it transubstantiates into liquid gold? Well that's what @mike1infive.bsky.social told me anyway.
I will listen to the CDs later too. And proudly wear my little @grim17again.bsky.social and @gozergoodspeed.bsky.social badges. 🤓

I don’t hate AC/DCs Bon Scott era. But I’ve always preferred Brian Johnson’s voice. The ‘92 live album is the perfect mix of great earlier tunes and 2nd wave classics all sung by Brian. An absolute essential listen in my view. Not everyone will like that take though…

I bought this mug a month before any were sent out. Used it very day. Ran it through the dishwasher about 30 times. It’s great!
I didn’t plan for Evri though… I now know of 2 that didn’t make it. Let me know if yours didn’t arrive in 1 piece and I’ll replace x

Is it time for independent artists to give up Spotify?
Recent news that Daniel Ek has invested some of his vast personal fortune into the weapons industry prompted us to discuss the pros and cons of giving up Spotify on this weeks episode of The Inner Sleeve podcast.
