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.

    • I have had multiple jobs completed at my home by T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, and I wouldn't go to anyone else now. They always come at the agreed day/time, I have never been asked to rearrange. The jobs have always been completed to extremely high standards, and as a perfectionist myself, I appreciate this level of care and detail. I'm grateful of the clear up afterward too, leaving me very little to do after the job is done. I am always blown away by the speed and efficiency  - no waffle, no flannel, just sheer hard work from start to finish. In summary - a highly professional first class service. Don't hesitate to call T.D. PLUMBFIX SOLUTIONS LTD, if you like excellence and trade people that will respect your home. 
    • Or increase tax.  The freezing of personal allowances is one way, not what I would choose.  On principle I don't care if the rich immigrate.  The main parties could have been more honest before the election.  Reform is deluded.
    • I edited my post because I couldn't be sure we were talking about politicians and I couldn't be bothered to read it all back. But it was off the back of a thread discussing labour councillors, so it went without saying really and I should have left it.  What I said was 'There's something very aggressive about language like that - it's not big and it's not clever. Some of the angry energy that comes from the far left is pretty self-defeating.' (In relation to a labour councillor rather immaturely, in my view, wearing a jumper that read 'fuck the Tories').  But I don't recall saying that "violent rhetoric" is exclusively the domain of the left wing. So I do think you're taking a bit of a bit of leap here. 
    • You literally just edited your earlier reply to remove the point you made about it being “politicians”.  Then you call me pathetic.    I’m  not trying to say you approve any of the ugly right wing nonsense.  But I AM Saying your earlier post suggesting  violent rhetoric being “left wing” was one-sided and incorrect
