My copy of this book arrived the other day and I'm really enjoying dipping into it. Jake's view of the world is quite unique. I'd love to hear some of his Yorkshire Post articles read by someone like Ian McMillan on a podcast.

He can rattle my latch, bang my knocker,
There’s not one whit of a titbit here;
Go tap with his dainty sickle on the windowpane
Of the brigadier,
The frigging brigadier.

This Jake Thackray song about tribalism, written for German TV, is still very relevant. I hope one day to release his performance. In the meantime, here is the version I made with John Watterson, produced by @wthompsonsfx #JakeThackray #Tribes youtu.be/1sW-od-pmgY?

My first exposure to the genius of #JakeThackray were his frequent appearances on 'That's Life', a Sunday evening, post bath, UK TV show that was generally the signifier for kids to go to bed. As It's Sunday night, here's Jake. Now go to bed. Have a great week.x
