Pleasantly Disturbed – New Hanging Around Books Release!
A new release by Hanging Around Books sees images taken in 1978 by Laurie Evans feature in the book. I feel ssooo bad as I made the horrendous assumption that Laurie is a man! My apologies, Laurie. I’ve been waiting a while on this one as I had contacted Laurie some time back from seeing…

Field Music – Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum – 01/02/2020
My first gig of 2020 may already be the gig of the year! I arrived in the West End around 4.30pm and had a bite to eat at Mario’s Cafe on the Byers Road. After the meal I took a meander down to the Kelvingrove thinking it might be open for the concert goers to…

At Least It’s ‘On Topic’….
So…two of my recent posts to the SMO visitor wall get deleted for…whatever reason. Okay. Fair enough. But this gets to stay? No comeback from Jim? Nae nuthin’? Well, it’s “on topic”, I suppose. At least they’ve been allowed to express an opinion… To each their own.
Great Covers
I was listening to Billy Sloan’s show on BBC Radio Scotland last night and he played a previously unreleased version of Bowie’s I Can’t Read which is set to be released on a new compilation due out on Record Store Day called CHANGESNOWBOWIE. He then followed it up by playing a cover of Absolute Beginners….
