#NP Espen Rud - Hotelsuite (Odin, 1985). Great jazz from the "lost decade". Recorded in Rainbow Studios (where ECM recorded most of their legendary stuff).

Tonight I’m remembering Martin Parr. A huge inspiration on me when I was a young and aspiring photographer.

Have caught the cold so I’m chilling with Stardew Valley and a cup of tea with honey. On the left you can see a stack of retired office PCs that make great retro gaming stations. Dirt cheap (~$50 each) and take up no space.

Been visiting 1960 this afternoon. Top 4 albums of the year, IMHO, are these. Further down the list are Miles Davis, Charlie Mingus, Julie London, Wes Montgomery and The Ckrickets...

A day without Bach, is like a day without coffee. So why not combine the two and have a listen while you zip your morning cuppa...? It's my morning routine anyway. Get up early before the rest of the family wakes up and have my slice of heaven before the unbearable lightness of being sets in.

This is how I’m wasting my Sunday afternoon. Sid Meier’s Railroad Tycoon - A Top 10 game of all time IMHO. Original game on original vintage hardware of course. No retro gaming here!
