Bought the latest Tracey Thorn called "Love and it's Opposite". I's a grower. Subtle and pensive. Was listening to her about 25 years ago when she was in The MArine Girls.


Completely from left field, got a compilation called "Songs for Dad" from my two little ones on Father's Day. Thought it was a touching gesture that would quickly be gathering dust - but this starts with "Come FLy with Me2 by Sinatra, ends with Johnnie Ray's "Just Walking in the Rain" and in between sweeps through a load of gems from the 50s, including "Good Rocking Daddy" by Etta James. Cool.

Micah P Hinson's new one. A change of direction, much richer arrangements and a bit cheerier if I'm not mistaken.

Very good.


Also got She & Him - Volume 2, Zooey Deschanel's musical project, this time with M Ward. Sort of Gainsbourg & Birkin after hanging around with Johnny Cash for too long.


Have read a couple of good reviews of the Tracy Thorn album, might give it a quick spotify and see if I like it.

Jeff Beck's new album Emotion And Commotion and quite a bit of old reggae at the moment. Always the same with me when the sun comes out. So it's been Lee "Scratch" Perry's Arkology boxset, a singles compilation from Doctor Alimantado, King Tubby's Meet The Rockers Uptown and Eek-A-Mouse's first album Wa-Do-Dem.

    • I need a 15m extension lead. It must be in good working order and be suitable for connecting to a car battery charger. Fingers crossed someone has one they don't want!
    • Good plan, thanks! I do already have a fire guard which is used for its intended purpose! Smoke free heat logs, before anybody asks. I am presently using a large picture covered in an old bedspread, but a fire guard would cover more of the gap. I'll do some research!
    • Forum drinks are not happening for a month or so, but if/when they restart, it is highly unlikely to be in Peckham, given that this is the East Dulwich Forum!
    • @Mabaker You were unsuccessful in getting goldfinches Use a nyge feeder and/or sunflower chip feeder and they will come.  A yellow ribbon may help to attract them.   https://www.arkwildlife.co.uk/products/all-weather-niger-seed-feeder?variant=44984394711257&country=GB&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=17182013905&gclid=CjwKCAiAqKbMBhBmEiwAZ3UboEzcMqK1iuYX51ugogbRvidH8ia8707CSAgSgqes8hdhEG2WNSkG1RoCrr0QAvD_BwE
