One of my favourite albums. Not sure if I prefer the Boxed mix to the original. I need to get one of those smart cleaners and tackle my back catalogue though!!!

Oddly I was playing this just earlier, it’s a cracking record…here’s an interesting article on the history of *that* rhythm..I was obsessed with Ring the Alarm for a while in the 80s, I have a 12” somewhere of it I picked up in Smelly Alley in years gone by.

Gosh I love Godwin’s work. She is so inspirational

I stumbled across this and thought of you…it’s basically a cover version of Paranoid but with the lyrics changed to tell the story of Hound of the Baskervilles. Warning: video contains scary dog…🤣

This current round is highlighting a mountain of stuff I missed when I was head down in bringing up kids. This one for instance, will make sure I go and check it out!

…and houses with no central heating….

‘Twerps’. That’s a great word that I haven’t seen used for a while! I saw him last year and really enjoyed it, not sure I met a twerp though, sorry 😀

Agreed…Unclassified is essential listening for me..especially on long dog walks 😀

That was my Friday evening, tho with rum swapped for whisky and the cat for a dog.

I have to get myself on of those t shirts. Brilliant!

Is this a second series Blu ray launch?

I was put off because I assumed you needed a smart UHD Blu ray player and a big atmos system. Maybe I should give them a try!

A quick liver tickler?

I remember doing that with friends on a patch of waste ground every year. They always lit it early though!

I’ve never heard this album but have always loved the cover

I had that poster on my wall…alongside Tom Baker and Jaws*. Loved this version of King Kong though haven’t seen it for many many years.

*Wasn’t long before they came down and up went Debbie Harry…

I sympathise totally. When I was job hunting recently I saw that LinkedIn had gone the way of other social media, with a lot of non work related posts, and stuff from the ‘incite hatred’ playbook (‘Muslim lady complained about my English flag’ type stuff). I had to step away from it for a while.

That’s a lovely and very evocative photo

It’s probably a case of ‘least worst’. I’ve always used Apple Music, and the latest version of iOS has the facility to move a playlist into Apple Music without any tedious re typing. I’ve never looked at the alternatives like Qobuz or Tidal, they may have better approaches for paying artists.
