Nice fact Matt. Often wondered.

You hear certain records that just stay with you and you recall where and when you heard them. Andy brought several of those moments to me.
He was a great match with JP.
Life's tough at times.
Fond memories of those good times with the radio and cassettes full of gems... some of which I later found!

Nice to see MicroD.

'Pink Skinned Man' is a personal fave and a belter.

Sad, but also comforting, to see Cathal in the documentary before he died. He looked happy at last.

The rub-a-dub soldier sample is something I sing most weekends.

All those tunes Andy brought. A different and better world.

Loved Andy, Peel and the 'Kid' BITD.
Enthusiastic, laconic, and smooth/slick!

Andy played the 12" of this one night - a recording it took best part of 20 years to get hold of.

Vid is fun but a bit too spliced. The 12" is a lost love recovered for me!

Thanks Andy.

Does that imply 25% of Americans think Epstein was OK!
Shameful.

Tough call picking 20... a hiding to nothing.
#1 is fair enough but ...
This is what engaged me.

It's pretty offensive to all humans.
Acceptable to US zealots perhaps but that is no standard to judge against.

A photo collage of each of the volunteers doing readings in front of the red painted hearts of the memorial wall. At the centre of the collage is a photo of the banner with the number of covid dead: 252,499.

On Sunday, we remembered the 252,499 UK covid dead with a Walk of Memories, with volunteers stopping at each panel to do a reading and observe a minute’s silence.

We will never forget them. ❤️

Progress is progress but you do have wonder about how that connection was made.

Yep. For me the title track was one of the weaker songs but a fabulous collection of their charisma and urgency none the less.

'Balls to you big daddy!'

I'm pretty sure she won't be back. Perhaps the best ever rockabilly cover and they did a few.

He was excellent as Adam in NX?
Brought much joy in the 90s with his acerbic turns.
Sorry, NX=Northern Exposure.
