#NowPlaying Korn - See You On The Other Side 20th Anniversary 2025 #vinyl reissue. Truly a thing of beauty. #VinylSky #MetalSky #MusicSky #Korn

Twitter accounts are based in Russia. BlueSky accounts are based in homes with, frankly, too many books, plants, obsolete cables, and pieces of rustic pottery, that could do with a bit of a tidying up, to be honest.

St Bernadus... 10% loveliness #beer #beersky

Remembering all who have served and all who have fallen, who lie in home soil or in distant lands, or whose only grave is the sea. Remembering all who returned wounded in body or mind. Remembering all who grieve. #Remembrance

Today's #SpaceRockSunday (well here anyway). Hawkwind and Doremi Fasol Latido. Their 3rd album, recorded, as so many iconic albums were, at Rockfield Studios and released in November 1972. It's still quite capable of whisking you away... #Hawkwind #Vinyl #VinylSky #ClassicRock #VinylCommunity

Well, it's Jim Steinman's birthday today, so... #NowPlaying #Meatloaf #BatOutOfHell #JimSteinman #VinylSky #VinylCommunity

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

This was a delightful setting for a book fair today, Dorset County Museum in Dorchester #books #bookfair #booksky #Dorset

Some late night Patti Smith... ❤️ youtu.be/c_BcivBprM0?...

Today's #vintage #paperback finds: another Chris Foss-illustrated cover for AE van Vogt's Moonbeast (1975) and Slaughterhouse 5 by Kurt Vonnegut. A very early 1972 copy.

*Public Service Announcement* This deodorant will get the police called to you at Stuttgart Airport. Tbh I thought it was quite a nice deodorant and not worthy of police intervention.

Well I'm on the list for a transplant. Kind of weird waiting for someone to die to save my sight. Something difficult to comprehend, I'll be so incredibly grateful. Also kinda weird having a part of someone else in me...

Kemi Badenoch blames those crossing borders for our problems. It’s a lie aimed to distract. The real issue is a system protecting the super-rich while nurses & carers can’t make ends meet. Tax wealth fairly, fund public services properly. This is how we give Britain hope again.

Hurrah! Eurotrash is back!

I went on this boat while she was being fitted out at Barrow before handover. Had a nice tour with an ex RN dusty. Now feeling very old...

While I'm on the subject of #theDamned here's Dave Vanian looking beautiful with one of the best riffs ever... #NewRose youtu.be/TUxFQ5QBiYk?...

We've had a very nice young lady join us at work. Her name is Eloise, and now each time she comes over to chat, this is going round in my head... #theDamned youtu.be/b31L4P7G5j8?...

Just home from the gym. Late night/long day, I guess, but if it wasn't for that place I'd be climbing the bloody walls. Space and time to decompress as well as essential for fitness at my age. #over60fitness #gymsky #fitnesssky #armandcoreday

Please repost if you agree that British TV News is betraying our democracy by giving Farage what looks like more coverage than all the other opposition parties combined.

Time for a boogie? It's #StatusQuoSunday here... Hello! - Released September 1973 on Vertigo #Vinyl #VinylSky #VinylCommunity #MusicSky #StatusQuo #Boogie

Yesterday's happy charity shop find was this lovely boxset of James Herbert novels. His books always gave me a scare! I read The Spear and The Fog in my teens but not the others... #horror #JamesHerbert

A late good morning! #NowPlaying Amorphis - Silent Waters. Finnish progressive metal, their 8th studio album released in 2007. Another record not played in too long a time, i need more of this. #VinylSky #Vinyl #VinylCommunity #Metal #MetalSky #ProgressiveMetal #Amorphis

My son has been home for just over a week. Today he goes back to Cardiff and I am very sad.

Today's 2 #sci-fi charity shop finds, Zelazny's four novellas in Four for Tomorrow from 1967 and a lovely copy of Smith's The Galaxy Primes of 1975. Another #ChrisFoss cover there... #sciencefiction #60ssciencefiction #70ssciencefiction

Just read a post on a local FB group complaining, rightly so, about building on green belt. It managed to go from blaming the Labour Party (rightly) to the Green's being in the pockets of the Islamo-communists who are supporting the corporate oligarchy. It had the most likes. We are fucking doomed.

Had plans not to drink tonight. Stupid idea.

Today's #charity shop #sci-fi #book find has this great cover by Chris Foss. Arrow, 1979.

Why are the #right always #wrong?

So the #turntable is on 😃 today it's Shinedown - Amaryllis, I think my favourite of their albums. From the soaring title track, the angry Bully and the heartwarming I'll Follow You (❤️) it's great stuff! Released in 2012 on Atlantic. #NowPlaying #VinylSky #MetalSky #VinylCommunity #Shinedown

Enjoying reading #VinylSky posts tonight. I'm finally alone, but it's too late for me to put the #turntable on. Tomorrow is another day...

Spent half an hour being pummelled, cut-throat razored, suffocated by steam, and flamed. Love a visit to the Turkish barbers.

Coming soon to #TalkingPicturesTV Premiere Mon 15th Sept, 10:35am THEY FOUGHT THE FEW. Commemorating the 85th anniversary of the Battle of Britain, this exclusive film with interviews, focuses on the unlikely friendship of a British Spitfire Ace and a Luftwaffe pilot.

In 1994, Italian artist Marco Patrito released a 3D scifi visual novel called Sinkha on Windows 3.1 Info about the game is hard to come by. It doesn't even have a Mobygames entry. Gameplay is non-existant so far. You just read the story, enjoy music and amazing visuals, and keep pressing next.

Today's Tesco charity book find was a 1979 copy of Battlestar Galactica in lovely condition. Jump in your Starhound fighter and go blast a Cylon! #sciencefiction #oldpaperbacks #charityshop #BattlestarGalactica

Britain is not a country of racist bigots. Time for the decent majority to "take back control". Repost if you agree.

I didn't realise that Queen's News of the World album cover was a) by Frank Kelly and b) predated it by a couple of decades Cool

This morning is remembering the original Iron Maiden and the late Paul Di'anno. And that Derek Riggs cover... Released in April 1980 by EMI #vinyl #VinylSky #VinylCommunity #IronMaiden #NowPlaying

This morning's vibes are distinctly funk and soul based. This may end but until then, it's Hot Chocolate and Every 1's a Winner. 1978 original release on RAK #Vinyl #VinylSky #Records #Soul #Funk #HotChocolate

It's been a long week. I've had to open a bottle of red wine and eat cheese.

🚨 NEW PETITION 🚨 The UK–US trade deal is being forced through with NO vote, NO consultation, and NO impact assessment. Parliament must decide — not ministers behind closed doors. ✍️ Sign & share: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/73... #SaveBritishFarming #StopTheDeal

Our lovely friend Ray Brooks has left us for the cinema in the sky. His talents knew 'The Knack,' was always a 'Big Deal' and he will be forever the voice of 'Mr Benn.' Rest in peace dear friend.

Next up is the awesome 2020 Nuclear Blast reissue of Clayman. Some tracks were re-recorded for this 20th anniversary edition, including Pinball Map and Only for the Weak, my favourites on this album. This got a mixed reception but I like them... #VinylSky #MetalSky #InFlames #Clayman #VinylSunday

As the world is very much doing this, it's appropriate that my favourite #metal is by the awesome In Flames. So this #VinylSunday starts with Siren Charms, the vinyl nearly as heavy as the music. Originally released in 2014, this is the 10th Anniversary edition on Nuclear Blast. #VinylSky #MetalSky

A rhythmic and sexy groove that i really shouldn't be listening to at my age... youtu.be/ZGNerkV5UfM?...

Back to the Beginning raised £140 million for Acorns Children's Hospice, Birmingham Children's Hospital, and Cure Parkinsons. Way to go, Ozzy #RIP #Love

It's #SaxonSunday ! One of the first LPs I ever bought way back when (1981!), it has the classics "Motorcycle Man", "747 (Strangers in the Night)" and "Suzie Hold On"... ah memories! #NowPlaying #VinylSky #Vinyl #Saxon #WheelsOfSteel
