*This is a companion piece to a similarly-themed article on Karen’s site which, all things being equal, should be published at roughly the same time.* It’s been quite a busy week, with fewer listening opportunities than usual. So far, with these stunt posts, I’ve reached the end of the week and been happy to move […]
*This is a companion piece to a similarly-themed article on Karen’s site which, all things being equal, should be published at roughly the same time.* Usually I write my stunt post (and select the following week’s playlist) on Tuesday evening, but this week I completely forgot. Partly because I’ve had other things pressing on my […]
*This is a companion piece to a similarly-themed article on Karen’s site which, all things being equal, should be published at roughly the same time.* Spotification 1. **Any Day Now** from Sam Cooke with the Soul Stirrers – I sense that I’m supposed to be reviewing this song based upon his vocal performance.

Today I went to my Aunt Rachel’s funeral. I wasn’t quite sure what I was doing there, to be honest. She was never interested in me, my sister or my son, and I was never interested in her. There were no specific things about her that I disliked, we just had nothing in common. I […]
I do not support our government’s inappropriate use of anti-terrorism laws. Our leaders are idiots. Rest assured, we’re going to vote them out at the next available opportunity. I wish that we could vote them out sooner. All of the real human beings in the UK have sympathy for the real human beings in Iceland. […]
Please Buy My Record: The Futility of Flogging Music “Slight poverty is what drives music forward. It only works if you’re in the red. You’ve never felt so alive as when you’ve just maxed out your credit card to get your band on a cross channel ferry for a one-off gig in Antwerp. Seriously. You […]
*Much of the information here is redundant, since I’ve already written one extensive blog post on this subject, but I’m rewriting it here so as to follow the structure established in the first post in this series.* Who were we? * **Craig** played guitar and wrote songs.
