All 3 are belters, as we say.

If that's an obtuse way of saying that the second album is not so good then unfortunately I'd have to agree with you. Title track is great, the rest lacks the brash spark of the debut. Meanwhile, back on topic, I don't watch the Tweedy Show live because of the time difference, and finding time to catch up on YouTube is difficult (so I've maybe seen 10?), but I read the summaries avidly (thank you) looking out for gems - which Let Me Come Home certainly was. Always been a favourite, and would be great to see it performed more often by TWEEDY or JT solo whenever the curse of covid lifts.

Enjoy. Their second album is out now but I haven't heard it yet. Fingers crossed they can keep up the good work. They have a fidgety, awkward lead singer who I find hypnotic in an Ian Curtis kind of way, with the unpretentious dress style of fellow Irishmen The Undertones, which is always a good thing. P.S. Long time no see.

Once Upon A Time in Iraq Wow, just wow. I can't remember being gripped by a documentary series as much. Talking heads supported by footage, but what talking heads. A group of ordinary (or extra-ordinary as was often revealed) civilians or other individuals (journalists & military on the ground) in key positions (and I mean of insightful circumstance not political leadership etc.) telling their stories and offering a glimpse into what unfolded. Binge-watched in 2 sittings and the first night had a dream about driving a car down a Baghdad street trying to avoid dead bodies so it obviously

Add me to the band of outcasts. Whilst I understand that JT can only write what he feels as affected by personal circumstances in the last few years and there have been some gems, what I most liked about Wilco was the fact that every album was so distinctively different in style. The last few Wilco/solo albums have been stuck in a bit of a whispery Dirge Rock (see what I did there?) vein and I have been itching for some energy. Everyone is getting on (me too) so raw youthful power might not be the easiest thing to tap into naturally anymore, but I feel I need something to lift me up and throw

Ha!

Giri / Haji Japanese/English Tokyo/London thriller. After a couple of episodes I was hooked by the many interlocking plot threads.

Fwiw: There is a Ray Bradbury story: I Sing The Body Electirc / The Electric Grandmother that I thought of as I listened to the new poem (first title was a Twilight Zone and later radio series episode that I heard a couple of months ago, second title a later TV film version).

That is precisely why my sentence began as it did, in case you did not read it. Most people should calm down to allow the resources to go to those who need it rather than everything being swamped in a 'me first' chaos.

I appreciate that there are vulnerable segments of society that need resources and special care, but it's not ebola for God's sake. The vast majority of people will have a bit of a cough and no worse that usual annual flu. The whole world needs to calm down a bit.

Last night I had a dream that JT was releasing an album called Deja Vu comprising of covers of 80s UK synth-pop hits. I think he was attired in a tight fitting suit in some sort of Heaven 17 type style, but I don't remember what his hair looked like at the launch party in a small dimly lit club. There was probably some gel involved.

I wasn't listening to much music in the early/mid 90s, but as a Brit they definitely captured the zeitgeist of Cool Britannia and it was a fun time to be living in the UK. Apart from a couple of energetic singles, I always looked on them as a derivative band who copied and pasted banal predictably rhyming lyrics together, but on the other hand very much appreciated having some proper rock'n'roll characters in the mix even if they were acting like t***s a lot of the time. At least they liked Weller and the Beatles. They probably lost it from the point Bonehead left, since up to then they had th

New series of Inside No. 9 still eminently watchable, and it's that time of year - so Six Nations rugby of course.

Well you seem to have got into the spirit of things by starting on the rum anyway ...

Must rank up with that time Dolly Parton bust out her Coat Of Many Colours.

JamBase cares ... It would be nice to park the thread until they miss their publishing deadline but that doesn't work in the internet age. Was also wondering how messy the tequila tasting with John and Nels got?

This is what you want:- http://www.manvsglobe.com/mariachi-bands-plaza-garibaldi-mexico-city/ Somehow at that time (pre- Google) I just discovered it by chance. Maybe I'm becoming an old Git now but I often say that the internet has ruined travel - everyone knows everything about where to go (hence anywhere good quickly becomes overdeveloped/overcrowded), everything can and needs to be booked in advance instead of just turning up and finding places, etc. etc. There needs to be a large element of chance involved with travel. Bah humbug.
