I seem to recall this was Terry Wogan’s favourite song

It is!

Dolly Parton - Hard Candy Christmas (Fireplace Video - Christmas Songs) YouTube video by Christmas Music

The 🌲 is up following the usual ‘mind that lampshade!’, ‘why is it leaning?’, ‘jeez the bloody lights don’t work!’
All calm now so time for a well earned aperitif and my favourite bittersweet Christmas song

Post rock gets precious little media coverage but now….!!

Ah man I love the IM had no idea they had released something new. Don Peris solo album The Old Century also well worth checking g out

Marvellous. I now want the Glen Miller vs of Deep Purple in Rock

Been a fan of MTR for a long time now - especially the much missed Sunday night show with Alex Huskisson who has been very supportive of my own music.

I remember being Leicester Poly (remember them) and reading the now famous Nick Kent eulogy in the NME which appeared in Feb 75. I think that was the first time I found out that he was dead - I’m sure it would have got next to no coverage at the time

Didn’t he play on a few James Taylor sessions? Renowned for his paradiddles

I listened to it yesterday and initial thoughts were it sounds sumptuous but the songs a bit one paced. Need to dig in a bit deeper

Went to see Bonnie Light Horseman at the Roundhouse last night - magnifique! They are playing more UK gigs; try and catch them if you can

Well it’s rather nice here - fresh air and blue skies. The old place was was getting a bit dark with an unpleasant musky smell don’t you think?
Anyway for now I’ll pull up a chair and wave to the passers by 👋
