I love his stuff. He's just got a support slot for Ryley Walker in Bexhill this Saturday. Ryley Walker's album Primrose Green is probably my favourite of the year (very Tim Buckley/John Martyn).

So, the year that keeps on giving....keeps on giving.


Jacco Garnder's new one is superb. Similar vein to the first (pop/folk/psych loads of catchy tunes), which was good enough but this is another notch up.


Also, I never thought i'd hear myself say this but, the Alabama Shakes record is a bit of a revelation.

Kamasi Washington's staggering (STAGGERING) 'The Epic'


3 hour, 3 disc Jazz behemoth. It's taken 3 bus journeys but i'm nearly through it. I will start again as soon as it's finished. Nothing else will get a look in for a while. It's a trad/fusion/space/spiritual jazz monster, with a modern feel. He's a saxophonist/composer and is backed by a 10 piece jazz band, 32 piece orchestra and 20 strong choir.


He's contributed recently to the Flying Lotus and Kendrick Lamaar albums but that doesn't do him anything like justice.

I had this on the player as I saw him in the newsagent next to work the other day.. I refrained from stopping him and chatting but this is class stuff for those who like it....

    • But when was it posted?! I haven't posted any this year. I can't bring myself to pay the exorbitant cost of the stamps, and at least I can sort of honestly blame it on illness. If I can't hand deliver them, I send e-cards. I know it's not the same, but it's very much easier. And as for the people who still send pages of closely handwritten letters .... very admirable in terms of the hours it must have taken them to write them,  but they remind me of those spoofs eg x has just passed all their many important exams with the highest marks possible, y has just walked round the world in a week, z has just become the first person ever to be knighted twice, we are about to fly off for our fifteenth exotic holiday this year ....... Or else (or sometimes and) they are full of who has had what illnesses and accidents and other catastrophes. Is this just my relatives and distant friends? Am I somehow attracting these reams of handwritten paper?
    • Oh, I didn't know that! I didn't move here till 1991 (I think) but the NCR incarnation must have been around that time? Unless my failing memory is even worse than I thought it was, sob.
    • I just googled, and apparently there's another branch of the Soho Street Govinda's  in Theobald's Road. I had no idea.
    • yes that's the one!  it was (nearly) harmless fun to get the un-initiated to put the coin in for you i also seem to remember that the Hanway Street place was called Govinda's.  it was vegetarian, vegan even - but it was much more palatable fare than the standard Hare Krishna stuff.  I also used to go tot he Indian Y - which I remmber discussing on the EDF some eyars ago.  And then the first Wagamama opened off Russell Street
