Right, that's it, I'm knocking off early, take it away brother Rob www.youtube.com/watch?v=yvJG...

Is today dragging for anyone else, I feel like I've been in work since last night Say the word and I'll give the Atomic Clock at Greenwich a ring. Something's gone adrift!

#NowPlaying The Stooges - Fun House Still my favourite Stooges album, still sounds great, never tire of it. Pure undistilled rock n' roll. They could've quite accurately called it Loose after the second track!

If BBD hadn't gone on to do more incredible albums, this would be hailed as an unsung treasure of the glam era. Well it's very well sung round these parts anyway!

It was a very wet walk this morning so spent a few minutes going back over some photos I haven't posted before. Ruby Red Tor. Taken in October 2024 when the aurora visited Glastonbury Tor.

Out today. Now playing new release... Cheap Trick - All Washed Up [Cheap Trick/BMG 2025] ...a welcome return, not that they've ever really gone away, with an album chock full of chunes #NewMusicFriday #NewMusic2025 #CheapTrick

#90sTop30 Day 13. Storming into my 3 songs from1994 with Sabotage by the #BeastieBoys This was the first single from their fourth studio album, Ill Communication m.youtube.com/watch?v=z5rR... #MusicChallenge #90sMusic #MusicSky #HipHop #RapRock

New t-shirt just arrived And yes, that's silver glitter print You will know me by my trail of sparkly litter

#NowPlaying This turned a few heads and ears at the time as casual listeners cried "But wither the singles?" Well for me this is the album where all those influences came together; post-punk, extreme metal, hip-hop, all the way to Sly and P-Funk. Singles? There were four, there are hooks everywhere!

#MusicInMusic #MusicChallenge 13. Wildhearts - Inglorious Let us continue with some tracks concerning the 'business' and we'll start with Ginger W's urge for bands to tread their own path, not kowtow to the label "So make a few steps, scare the wind out of A&R reps" www.youtube.com/watch?v=vN2i...

Stiv Bators and Michael Monroe 1985 🖤

Post someone who looks great in a hat…

#MusicChallenge #20SongsByYear (1967) 10 - This video appears to be from a few years later. Sly’s influence can’t be overstated. youtu.be/kHaDc82w6OM?...

So you could say, 'Faust' as a charades option at a German party is a lot more Agitation Free? (I'll get my coatrocksampler)

Cheap Trick - Clock Strikes Ten It's Wednesday, it's (depending on your time zone) very far from ten, but hey, when the Trick are around it's always party time - in a socially acceptable Roy Wood-cum-Sweet way, anyway. Git some www.youtube.com/watch?v=wksS...

Just got horn blasted by some motorist. Thought "that's odd I'm on the pavement". Seems he wanted to park on the bit of pavement I was walking along and I clearly wasn't moving fast enough. I mean, seriously, don't f*ck with me today, I've been posting tracks from Autogeddon I'll have ya know

The Bolshoi - Happy Boy I love this track - Trevor Tanner looks a bit like a gauche, gangly Syd Barrett in this video at times too www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JKV...

80 Years young today (Not in this picture, here he's just young Young) Happy birthday Shakey!

They weren't dull. 'Phallus Dei' and 'Yeti' are great albums.

#MusicInMusic #MusicChallenge 12. Julian Cope - Don't Call Me Mark Chapman "All night Barry Manilow playing loud over the speaker system Just trying to drive the f*cker out" This eerie tale of a hitch-hiking killer is from the Archdrude's dark classic Autogeddon www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9Ou...

I'm a street walkin’ cheetah with a heart full of napalm. Iggy, Ann Arbor, 1969. Glenn Craig.

What time is it? Why, it's Iggy Pop straddling a huge ball 'o clock

Funny that you never see Jay Aston from Bucks Fizz and Jay Aston from Gene Loves Jezebel in the same room 🤔 (I mean, it's probably 'cos they don't really know each other and their paths have never crossed)

Does anyone remember the garage-rock revival band The Mooney Suzuki? They got their name by combining the names of the two singers in CAN Well surely if they wanted to combine both CAN singers, couldn't they have just called themselves 'Mark E Smith'? www.youtube.com/watch?v=60wQ...

1976. Motorhead opened for Pink Fairies, the first gig by the 'classic' lineup

Currently reading both these books and I would highly recommend You don't have to like either of their bands to enjoy. It just so happens I love both but even so

One of the musicans on this record was in Chas and Dave - an occasional series www.youtube.com/watch?v=LW_P...

Just remembered the time a few years ago - on a flight to Ibiza - I'd drunk 2 bottles of cola and several beers. Didn't go to the toilet on the flight early enough so then there was a massive queue and the seatbelt sign came on for landing. The descent took ages and I was completely bursting

I'm hearing from a very reliable source that we are getting a takeaway curry tonight

Post a non-religious photo you think of as holy

Hi, I am a 90s Britpop video Whilst I understand that having a good visual balance is paramount to creating a pleasant aesthetic experience I say "throw the rule book out the window and turn colour saturation all the bally way up" Those young tykes from Burnage seemed pleased

Hi, I am an artistic conceptual 80s video Sometimes my director isn't quite sure how to end so I merely go to a freeze frame or very slow motion shot, whilst the music is still playing. That young chap Gary Newman was particularly happy

Hi, I am a Police video Now whilst things like lead and bass guitars are fairly portable I understand that Stuart can't simply lug his kit around public places so instead I will allow him to play inanimate objects such as chairs and lampposts with his sticks

Repost with an iconic fictional band. 🎸🥁🎸🎶

Speaking of which - let's have it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=AsYH...

#MusicInMusic #MusicChallenge 11. Edan - Rock and Roll A roll call of psych/rock greats! Yeah, that's pretty unique in the world of hip-hop and anyone who ends a track with samples of Sir Lord Baltimore's Lady Of Fire and Floyd's Candy & A Currant Bun gets my vote! www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbmX...

Just seen my first John & Lou looking fed up in front of a Christmas tree of the season. Seems to get earlier every year!

#NowPlaying Reply with a shoddy compilation that’s also the artist/group’s best album.

You have to applaud the genius of managing to create a genre even worse than 'comedy/novelty country' Ray Stevens, consider yourself... replaced!

'Monster Movie' era Can with Malcolm Mooney, 1969.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

#MusicInMusic #MusicChallenge 10. Anthrax & Public Enemy - Bring The Noise The NYC thrashers had already been name checked in the original (with Yoko, Run DMC, LL Cool J) prompting PE fan Scott Ian to propose the collaboration and was delighted when Chuck D agreed www.youtube.com/watch?v=kl1h...
