A new release from Bryan Ferry at the end of November…inspired by his soundtrack work for the Netflix series Berlin Babylon. It sounds like it could be a goodun. I wonder if next year’s world tour will be airing this kind of vibe too? Would really love to hear how Sea Breezes sounds. Only about…
A great review – even if there is a little bit of misinformation (yes, I’m being pernickety AGAIN, Jim – but if a job’s worth doing…). I did love the bit about Jim’s splits and lunges and if reviewer Nick was to try it himself, he’d have to call 911 in the end! Lol Also…can’t…
The mysterious cupcakes seemed rather (NOT SO mysteriously) gratefully received. They got the Kerr “burp” of approval anyways…
Some Gibson Flying V “porn” from the latest edition of Guitarist magazine. Just…in case Charlie ever visits the blog ?????? Flipping heck! An original 1969 Flying V went for £30k?! Fuck me! I bet Charlie wishes he still had his…though I’m not sure his was a ’69 model. Anyways…guitar porn! Lol (I can tell you…

Just…wow! I could see it play out, just the way he described it. The street scene of him avoiding his grandfather and the notion of yet another dressing down. I could see this little man, tough as nails looking…but also looking quite frail and vulnerable at the same time (well, Jim’s only clue on how…
I suddenly found myself intrigued by the picture Jim chose to use for his post about age. The problem was, how was I going to search for it? How did he find it? How did he search for it? So I put in “butterfly watch age” and there it was in amongst the image search…
Is the title of a John Grant song, and appropriate for this message I received this evening ?????? Thank you, John.
