apart fom the tracks mentioned, for different reasons, and apart from my own personal favourites, the one which stands out for me in terms of visual imagery is Se?or, Se?or, (Tales of Yankee Power), I can see him in the doorway of the hacienda, dust from horses hooves on the horizon , if he had only mated with Laura Esquivel, imagine. the magical realism that partnership would have produced, or Isabel Allende, wonderful stuff, well deserved and about time too.

interesting how many of the (recent) likes are off Blood On The Tracks. Years ago, as a result of a combination of feck-ups, I spent Xmas on my own at a mates house - log fire, cooked my own bird and went through his record collection. Found BOTT. When Shelter From The Storm came on as first track I was covered in music for the entire day and when folks arrived later feeling sorry for me I was Mr. Grateful for what I'd had access to that day. Great album and such a tiny part of what he's written.


Rendel thanks for finding this thread again, I could not find it earlier and assumed it'd been deleted. So now we're here, my current fave (and one I may try playing at the Jam in Nov) is Fourth Time Around:

(can't find it on youtube !)

If push came to shove, Blood On The Tracks is probably my favourite album of all time.

    • Another shout out for Milk & More - their app allows you to alter the order, add or subtract to it and also to schedule holiday stops without having to leave messages in bottle - so more secure. You do have to set up a direct debit with them, but I haven't had any problems with that myself. I have had one or two missed or late deliveries in several years, but not really a problem - only very occasional and caused mainly by delivery-person illness. And very much feels like an old-fashioned milk delivery. They do special seasonal offers as well. More expensive than the cheapest of the super market milk prices, but for that its at your door, fresh and no bother.
    • Enjoying the nostalgia and memories.  As with others, we get ours through Milk and More (is part of big co, so there is that against it, but it's hardly a secret/niche thing) - returnable glass bottles of milk, orange juice, yoghurt, and much more besides (as per the name). And yes it comes in the middle of the night in an electric vehicle. So can still get out nostalgia fix, doubled when the Riverford chap comes too. 
    • This sounds like what goes on at Tessa Jowell GP surgery as well as others.   If you can flag yourself up as a ‘vulnerable’ patient or one that can’t use Apps for whatever reason etc then you can usually make appts by phone. They would have to make allowances. Quote the Equality Act 2010,  reasonable adjustments section.
    • Its part of a change all Doctor surgery's are undergoing.  The goverment want to stop the 8am scramble for an appointment, and its not just restricted to the Gardens. Sadly, it does impact some who are not digitally savy.
