Don't mess with the Taffia. Now eat your leek.

Don't remember seeing this before myself or here. Some interesting photos even if you want to pass on the book interview from a few months ago. https://officemagazine.net/it-feels-good-stop-hating-something

Is there a second series now (maybe not here in the UK yet - or BBC anyway where I saw it so far)? I really enjoyed the first.

Today the news came through about Barry. If J.P.R. was all about bravery and the heart in rugby, Barry was about the grace and poetry. The George Best and Johan Cruyff of rugby all in one. One of those select few sportsmen who are are just beautiful to watch - Nureyev with a rugby ball. And the incredible thing is that he walked away from the game at the age of 27 as the adoration in Wales got too much in affecting the life of what was then still a completely amateur sportsman. As the Max Boyce song says: I entered through the heavenl

Finally twigged what it reminded me of - Custers Last Stand, interpreted through the medium of dance.

She really has some fine videos too. And a great sense of humour from what I can tell.

Yeah - I like the roots country movement, and their classic songs, but wouldn't say I was a fan of theirs particularly - though I respect them of course. I suppose I was just expecting more on the cinematic side. It was just a bit of a dull watch from that point of view - especially given the director. I did enjoy that Once Were Brothers documentary a few years ago.

CMAT has appeared on my radar. Saw her/them on Later with Jools and the song she did there didn't immediately grab me, but this other song is an absolute belter - especially from the 2:00 mark. No auto-tuned warbling here. So I wouldn't call myself a fan yet but someone I am trying to keep tabs on. Apparently live shows are truly excellent.

By accident came across The Last Waltz the other day that I could see. I did wonder what all the fuss about that film was about actually. Good performance but ... Just saying. I did like the way they came across in the interview segments. Highlight for me was Emmylou - but disappointed that both her and Mavis's songs were recorded in a back lot studio. I did very much like the solo album that had Broken Arrow on it. Very atmospheric. I have that (and no The Band albums).

Indeed - it was a bit of a shock. What next - JT beatboxing?

In memoriam . . . A fitting tribute from the band, or should I say combo.

Some memories of her groundbreaking research . . . And the one 'After the Show' report she managed:-

It is with deep regret that I pass on some news I heard on the grapevine Lotti died in a tragic friendly fire harpoon incident last week. There is some softening of this deep blow to know that she passed as she would have wanted - face down in an icehole. She also had the solace of knowing that her campaign to link the (minor) success of Jeff Tweedy and Wilco to the influence of the Swedish megaband ABBA had found final recognition in the writing and words of Jeff Tweedy himself in recent months. If is good to know that she lived to see that. Family and friends gathered o

A sad, sad day. Just about only Gareth, Gerald, John T. and Barry left now of the golden generation.

Great review. Ta.

Without him I would never have got to hear Brian Wilson sing God Only Knows live. Ta JF. Probably my favourite ever Glastonbury performance:- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEL2RTHHIbQ Not the greatest quality video, but good enough. Also, About 15 years ago I was walking to work along the Embankment one day at about 7:40am and he was there with the non-Brian Wilson Beachboys who were outside performing a few songs in front of about 20 people for a Morning TV studio located there. What a joy. Same happened with Clean Bandit one time, but no co

Ta - the last one of the year.

Since you're asking, the lodger character was Eddie Yates. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=urisnmO3NdY Except for a dabble with Angie and Den I don't think I've watched a soap opera since Stan/Hilda/Eddie left Coronation Street.
