As a massive fan, one of the greatest privileges of my life was to play a UK tour with Ronnie Spector of The Ronettes. This photo was taken during a soundcheck, of Ronnie on stage with me watching from the wings. ❤️ xxx

Massive thank you to television & radio legend Terry Christian for playing my latest single ‘Thirty Eighth Paradigm Blues’ on his ‘Northerners With Attitude’ show on Strawberry Radio this evening. Cheers Tezza. Very grateful to you, mucker. ❤️ x
My new single ‘Thirty Eighth Paradigm Blues’ is a brand new entry at No.30 on the UK’s Official Revival Chart Top 40. (And my previous single is still hanging on in there at No.19).
Yay me! 😊 xxx
(Cue indifference and lack of interaction from Bluesky ‘friends’!) 😂

The Carnegie Library in my ’hood. Built when the uber rich used their wealth to bring education, health, arts, libraries & museums to the masses. Today’s mega rich spend their money on joy rides into space, and subverting democracy

But for the parked car and the modern litter bin, I feel this could quite easily pass as a daguerreotype from almost two hundred years ago, rather than when I took the photo this morning. ❤️ x

Been in a bit of a songwriting trough lately. Then my lovely friend Pauline MacLeod posted this pic. And it’s really cheered me up. I’ve still not written anything new, but you can find my old music on Spotify, Apple Music, YouTube, Amazon, iTunes, Deezer, etc. ❤️ x

I never tire of this panorama. Tonight I was joined again by my beautiful, lonesome swan friend. ❤️ xxx

An old friend, and fellow singer-songwriter, Tim O’Connor sent me this wonderful pic over the weekend that he’d taken of me playing at one of CC/Brickwall’s legendary Funbox shows many moons ago. Thank you so much for the memory, Tim. I’m incredibly grateful to you. x #MusicSky #blackandwhite

Anyone on here know why Lucy’s been gone so long from Bluesky? I miss reading her random, wacky posts. Hoping she’s ok.
I love this painting and have a print of it above the fireplace in my lounge (I couldn’t afford the original as it was about half a million quid!) 😁
And here’s a pic of the dapper chap who painted it, Marie François Firmin-Girard. 🙂

A textbook trait of malignant narcissism.
I’d much rather be woke than half-asleep. 👍
If only she’d been a distant cousin of the Queen or something… 🤔
I have to say I’m absolutely loving your musical tastes! 👍😊
I’m a bit disappointed. I thought it was a chunk of sausage.
