Am going through a huge Soft Machine phase at the moment.


ditto. you tubes great for really early glimpses. Ive got a fun story about one of them. The keyboard guy with the dark glasses Mike. I used to live a few doors down from him in Hackney. I could see over his garden from my bedsit. In that garden was just flat earth, no grass or beds or borders. Mud. In the very middle of that was one daffodil plant. He had a beaten up old porsche that was festooned inside with sheet music. Also a wife who wore the same kind of rectangular shades as he. Kind of kept his head down, but did well on the "Im a fan , like your music a lot".

Thanks for the Nick Drake, DC


As it happens I posted a Drake song "Northern Sky" in a thread called "Songs that bring a tear" some time back. Obviously have to get onto that lazy Admin guy to get him to sharpen up his lazy-arse act with that search box thingummy.

You're welcome CitizenED. He's one of my faves.


As he's playing in town this week (although I'm sadly not going) I thought I'd have a bit of the King (no, the other King)....the King of Rock 'n' Soul!


Solomon Burke - Don't Give Up On Me


and also, for all you Wire fans the season three closing montage...


Solomon Burke - Fast Train

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
