Fuck the big powerful TV companies and streaming services. Google IPTV if you don't know of it. It can be tricky to set up but it's worth it.

America is headed towards civil war isn't it? :( I'm scared for all good and decent people there.

As usual not been on here for a while, been quite busy with life. Anyhow, I'm back on Mixcloud and if you love old reggae music then here's an hour and a bit of some of my fave 1970s reggae 45s (and a couple of LP tracks). www.mixcloud.com/gordy-robert... Big Up All My Listeners!

I've just had to go through age verification to use this site again. It's nothing to do with kids accessing naughty videos, it's ALL to do with gathering our information so the system has a record of us. #bigbrother #1984

Bluesky I'm back. Been struggling a bit again with my mental health but back on the up now. #mentalhealth

VIVA MEXICO AND FUCK ICE.

The pigs in LA fired a rubber bullet into the stomach of a young woman at point blank range last night. Her alleged crime? Just wanting to get back to her OWN apartment, you know - where she fucking LIVES......... Evil bastards. #LA #protests

"There's bingo at 9pm and a buffet in the break".....

Solidarity from the UK to everyone out there in the US protesting against your evil dictatorship. Stay safe!

Thisjianthebfirst article. Many to come. The lasting NYC is going forward. Now we find out that 40% of the voting machines got updates with zero oversite. More to come. The data for NC and PA is unbelievable. We all knew. We know. @smartelections.bsky.social m.economictimes.com/news/interna...

I didn't have Musk possibly turning face on my bingo card. I need to get to Aldi for some popcorn!

I'll be in Birmingham, UK this Monday night coming. Playing at Jam Jah Mondays, one of the UK's premier weekly reggae sessions. Proper looking forward to it. #reggaemusic

Harder than concrete tune on a KILLER slow piece of the Chim Cherie/Billie Jean riddim. #reggae

Looks like Emi Martinez might be off in the summer sadly. Who would you replace him with fellow Villans? I reckon we should go for James Trafford. #UTV #VTID #SOTC

Apparently 8647 is a cool number. That's 8647. And if you need reminding one more time, 8647 ;)

One week ago we had rather fast 2 gigabyte broadband installed. It's rather good. Au revoir buffering!

I wonder if someone from The Clash heard this and it was in their consciences when they wrote "Should I Stay Or Should I Go". Check the melody..... it's not 100% the same but you can see what I'm getting at. youtu.be/b1QHq_41Q90?...

Beatles on Buster's riddim

Post has just been. Second take on Leroy Smart's classic Pride And Ambition with slightly different lyrics and one of the newest Doctor Bird CDs - Phil Pratt's Sunshot label singles 1972-73. #reggae

It's a Studio 1 kind of day. #reggae

Are there any computer experts on here who can assist me? I had 2gbps broadband installed yesterday but am only getting 1gbps speed because my motherboard can only handle 1gbps. I see you can buy a TP Link network card for only £21 that has 2.5gbps ,will that get me the speed that I'm paying for?

This year's birthday present (I turned 56 recently). Double book set with label scans,addresses,discographies, rare photos and a lot more. Only downside is that it's a reference book and there's no actual writing involved per se but there's Robert Pruter's great "Chicago Soul" book for that.

Recent purchases (all reissues, except the 45s that have two unreleased tunes featured). #reggae #recordcollection

Still alive. Sleeping a lot and trying to avoid the media. Listening to a lot of Curtis Mayfield recently. www.youtube.com/watch?v=x1xm...

Someone please WIPE OUT trump and his cronies NOW. They're on some hitler re-enactment shit....

I am tired of so much Trump losses and ruining our country.

My recent set for Roots Locker West, online station based between the UK and Los Angeles. An hour of early 70s tunes followed by an hour of 70s and early 80s roots. www.mixcloud.com/RootsLockerW...

I haven't been too active on social media recently. Just been popping on here and there. I'm going to try and be a bit more social now that I'm feeling better after my latest mental health "wobble".

It's going to be a City final if we get past Palace isn't it?

Just unfollowed the official Aston Villa Facebook page. Admins (if there is one/any) never remove racist posts, it's full of betting spam and for some strange reason also full of (mostly) African fans of other clubs slagging us off. I'd actually leave FB too but have too many contacts on there.

So at this juncture, why aren't the army and some of their generals doing something? Surely they don't want clowns in charge?

Going to see Capleton in Manchester in August. This is his first big hit record circa 1990 (not sure if it was his actual first tune). He started out as an occasionally slack dancehall artist of course before turning Rasta. #reggae #capleton

That was Beckhamesque. Top Bins.

At what point does someone ACTUALLY take action against these fascist maniacs in the US? What is it going to take for people to stop the talking and start the walking? What are people waiting for? All I see is people taking a great stance, stances are great but forward motion is better...

Lesser nations than America have ousted their dictators, several violently, what's holding y'all back????? Just a curious and worried onlooker from the UK who wishes you the best. Someone PLEASE step up and be that hero, we all know deep down there's only one way to stop this....

Went to a reggae and soul allnighter on Saturday night/Sunday morning. Got home at 1pm yesterday and had been awake since 3pm Saturday. I'm getting WAY too old for this without the assistance of naughty substances!

This is all I can say…. for now.

Listening to this great album from The Morwells. Very slept on group. #reggae

I'm pretty much ran off my feet nowadays being a stay at home partner and Grandad (in addition to health struggles) but I'm going to find the time to start doing my Mixcloud sets again. I hope to get one done this week and I'll begin with some of my favourite 50s and 60s R&B and soul 45s.

My American friends, I'll swap you eggs for old 60s and 70s soul records.

@schumer.senate.gov TRAITOR. RESIGN NOW!!!!!!!

This is the best Villa team in a long while. QF's of the ECL and still within touching distance of the top four in the league too!

It's no secret that I struggle at times with my mental health. I am in ongoing therapy twice a month but sometimes all one needs is a cuddle from their cute dog.

Just deleted my Threads account. That place is getting as toxic as twitter. Fuck Meta
