Brakes - Touchdown (apparently called Brakesbrakesbrakes in the US) As has been mentioned, can't go wrong with The Jam. Start with All Mod Cons The Housemartins (who when split became The Beautiful South and Fatboy Slim) Birdmonster Rockpile

Ditto. Like something Ronnie Lane might have done. I'm really very happy indeed that there is a full kaleidoscope of sounds and styles on this album, like Revolver as you said.

Just had:- Simon & Garfunkel - Seven O'Clock News/Silent Night into Tom Jones - It's Not Unusual The contrast worked for me, and a bit of Jones The Voice never did anyone any harm.

Gabba, gabba, ney indeed.

Such a joy to behold. It is a fantastic little venue and indeed this was where JT performed last time he was solo in London. I had watched a Lance Armstrong documentary that day (a day which for me had been universally terrible for a variety of reasons), and I came out feeling like I'd received a shot of Mavis EPO. Who else can drop The Weight just into the middle of a setlist, and for the first time ever there was no tedium for me in an obligatory 'introduce the band' segment - Mavis's voice has such character that it does not matter what she's saying. I liked the fact that the whole charade

. . . Funny . . . but not necessarily in a good way or . . . written by an eleven year old . . . read like a 'what I did in my holidays' story for a school task

Always the chance of some clunkers in the few as yet unheard tracks (I am picky and there is plenty that I have not liked in all that has gone before), but personally I have been thinking that this sounds like the most consistently good quality set of songs that JT has produced in a single release. Time will tell though of course.

Love the live version. The studio version doesn't have the extra fizz I was expecting, being slightly slower. Still gets a pass mark though and it will probably grow on me like several of the new songs.

Spending lunchtime watching Robert Plant's Glastonbury set in BBC iPlayer. Very nice. Like his new stuff and a good twist on some old crowd pleasers. Actually prefer him now to LZ.

Very Tom Sawyer. That reminds me of the black and white series they used to show in the school summer holidays, along with White Horses, The Flashing Blade, Robinson Crusoe (brilliant soundtrack) and The Monkees.

I'm sure there's a huge silent majority who appreciate you :-) and it's just a time difference thing (and you being a creature of the night). I also think that in years to come when there's some BBC4 music documentary on Wilco/JT (why not already?) you'll be the go to man for the audience witness talking head.

Banter Corner becomes a veritable Alcove. Ta (as ever).

Something like that happened years ago in the 1980s with Germany v Austria. There was a big stink about it and now both final matches have to start at the same time at least. "The match was the last game of the first-round Group 2, with Algeria and Chile having played the day before. With the outcome of that match already decided, a win by one or two goals for West Germany would result in both them and Austria qualifying at the expense of Algeria, which had beaten West Germany in the first game" "After 10 minutes of furious attack, West Germany succeeded in scoring through a goal by Horst

Just historical and administrative reasons I guess. There are separate football associations for each country that run their separate leagues - though Berwick play in the Scottish leagues and the best Welsh teams (Cardiff, Swansea, with Wrexham and Newport in the past) play in the English leagues. The rivalry used to be good but its a bit too one sided recently, and there have been exceptional individuals who have lost out by never being able to play at the top,level - most notably George Best, Ryan Giggs, and now Gareth Bale.
