So what are you listening to at the moment?

Been listening to the Bard of Barking a bit recently, Mrs Comma and I saw him play a gig last month down in Southampton in a tiny little sweatbox of a place that holds about 200 people. One of the best gigs I've been to in years, just one bloke and his guitar, chatting with the audience. And when he goes through the classics, it turns out that all 200 know every word ... like this one:

Not posting any links, but the music thread seems like the appropriate place to mention Nick Cave at this moment. One of my favourite artists but regardless of his music, thoughts are with him tonight. His son was just a year older than my youngest, that proximity of ages really brings it home.

Not a dry eye in the house

Been a big Antony fan for a few years now.

You look at the bloke and never in a million years would you expect that voice to emanate from his body.

Have you heard any of the covers he has done ?

Two spring to mind

Been having an bit of a Mod revival, revival the last few days. The Chords, Secret Affair, Lambrettas....that kinda thing. But it's not a Mod revival, revival without a wee bit of The Jam....Happy Together, Precious, When You're Young etc etc.

Glorious.

No doubt ill manage some proper Mod sounds later.....a wee bit of PP Arnold is on the radar. 😎

I've just re-connected my Record Player (look it up kids) to a new Sony amplifier and I've stuck on some Nina Simone and Etta James Blues standards..

It's coming to the end of my 4th 60+ hour working week and I'm getting in the mood to open a bottle of Bushmills later..

This could go 2 ways.. I'll either not post at all later, or I'll post loads and they'll get steadily more and more mellow, until I finally fall asleep in the middle of a lengthy diatribe against the privatisation of the NHS..

Metallica live at Reading Festival on BBC 4.

Odd to think it"s happening only about two miles down the road. If I stick my head out the window I can actually hear it live.
