Tree of the day. Dovestones, Saddleworth, Yorkshire.

Known to me as Grandma's tree as that is where she is.

The Buffalo Tom / Gerry Love has caught my eye

Terrible

Every now and then I fall in love with an album. Sometimes they aren't new.

This is about 6 years old but my oh my Purple Mountains.

It is Dean Wareham's fault. He had covered 2 songs which I dug back from.

Hope you are well.

Will give it a spin.....well a virtual one.

Him and Clapton and Rod Stewart, awful men. Played a week at Sun City, peak of the boycott of SA. National Treasure status in the UK. Makes me sick.

My take is that the yellow jersey is draining...it comes with time and responsibility that hinder recovery.

A good effort by the Dutchies, but not pulled off in the end

I think MVDP has a chest infection...we will see.

I read recently that music is about the emptu space between the music. And Kramer fills it well.

Off to see him Wednesday.

I like L'Aventtura, though maybe not a solo album as such.

But it is itching an itch

High on the hills above Bradford ...

I am coming to NYC from the UK and want to order a t-shirt to be delivered to my hotel while I am there (April, a five day period). Being from Yorkshire, this will save me money!

I don't know how these things work...does it sound possible?

Many thanks

* a large dollop of American schmaltz if my kids take control...Sabrina, Olivia and Gracie being saccharine soaked favourites

I have been spinning Chloe Slater and Horsegirl

Has passed me by. But will give it a virtual spin

It is all late 80s revivalist indie in my house with The Man From Delmonte playing on Wednesday*

*a large dollop of US

I keep heading back to the 90s but am consciously balancing my revivalist instincts with new music.

Just pre-ordered chloeslater.co.uk

But am balancing it with the Dean Wareham latest

Just to mix up our usual posts, here is a photo of this mornings bike ride.

Orla is 13 tomorrow which is making be a tad maudlin.

Bill Ryder-Jones is cheering me

Glad you have jumped ship.

Had the good fortune to see Galaxie 500 in 1989.

Listening to his new Christmas album right now.

Fantastic music.

Ooh, Christmas splatter vinyl #deanwareham #brittaphillips #sonicboom and a nice post bike ride cup of tea.

@yorkshiretea.bsky.social super important....do you sell in America or will I have to take my own?

It is Yorkshire, it is also Greater Manchester and part of Oldham Metropolitan Borough. It is not part of the Town of Oldham nor is it Lancashire.

I will buy a strip of raffle tickets. Let me know where I can drop off/ send the money.

Roche, it's Stephen Roche ...1987 TDF on Ch4 in the UK.

Also I loved riding my bike. No family links so on a separate note the loss of the #TDF to pay per view is a disaster

Ah...The Man From Delmonte.... Manchesters greatest

Class rider, great Palmares.

Absolutely
