It's monday morning, feeling a little melancholy.

I just felt like listening to this.


No tune on earth can transport me back to my childhood like this one, travelling great distances across a dry and dusty spain in a cramped Fiat 127, long before Spain had things like motorways.

Los Indios Tabajaras - Maria Elena


apologies for the naff slideshow, but it is youtube innit.

"I've just completed gran turismo on the hardest setting"


great stuff, haven't heard it for ages. As soon as this started I had a proustian memory moment, though in my case instead of my lost childhood I mostly remembered playing Serious Sam and drinking too much at the CPT!!

I think it was Spadetownboy who recommended it, but cheers. Could do with a martini about now!


nice one DC. I got Rachel Unthank and the Winterset not so long ago, and they do a fantastic cover of River Man, worth checking out.

PM me your email if you want an MP3 of it, strictly for evaluation purposes of course ;)

Cheers Mockney. Whilst I like my melancholy singer-songwriters, if pressed, my real love is soul.


Memphis, Detroit, Chicago, Miami, Northern.....all types. I would now like to brag about seeing this man in a marquee at the Cambridge Fringe Festival last year. There were nearly more band members on stage than audience members. Everyone was within 10ft of the stage and it was, without doubt, the finest musical night of my young life.


EDF, I give the King of Rock and Soul.

    • He/she followed me and my friends quite a long way along the road so we worried they might be out of their catchment area. Quite dusty paws which also made me think perhaps they’d been roaming away from home for a few days. Took photos in case anyone is missing them! Very pretty, friendly long-haired black and white cat, leopard print collar, pink paw-print metal tag. They eventually stopped following us across the road from Mrs Robinson.
    • I took it to mean that he was going to present all sides of the argument (for want of a better term) rather than just giving his own opinion. I didn't take it to mean that he was calling "his own views" balanced.
    • I just did this survey. There are a number of problems with it. For example, in at least two questions you have an option "other, please specify" but there is no way to specify what the "other" is. Also, you have several questions where if you have nothing appropriate to answer, you get a statement "this is a required question", or words to that effect, so you have to put in something like "nothing" in order to move on. Can I suggest that this is likely to confuse people so they just give up half way through? Maybe you should test it out on a few people before going "live" with it?
    • I went to Brockwell Lido on a hot day last summer to do some lengths. It was busy.  I kept getting other people's hair, which was floating around the pool, tangled in my hands. It was gross. I'm not sure if that was unusual, or if it's always like that on a hot day.
