• We'd like to take this opportunity to wish you a Happy Holidays and a very Merry Christmas from all at Golf Monthly. Thank you for sharing your 2025 with us!

So what are you listening to at the moment?

Was fortunate to get AAA tickets from my lad for Lucy Spraggan playing Kendal on Thursday and Galashiels on Friday. What a clever song writer she is - catchy tunes and thoughtful lyrics (often of very difficult subjects). Worth catching if you like this sort of stuff - and I find that I do - without previously knowing it. And she is a top lass as well.


And just as a comparison my lad also got me AAA tickets for Al Stewart last Wednesday. never seen him live before and rather weird hearing him do tracks of my life off Year of the Cat. He was excellent also - a nice - though somewhat eccentric 74yr old (we had a chat backstage after the gig)...but when he was quite a bit younger...for the youngsters on here who have never heard of him...

Prefer this;


or this;

 
He played all of the Year of the Cat album dispersed through the show - and yes - I think I too often prefer On the Border - and he explained what it is about and his bafflement how it did so well in the States.
