I’m in Dublin Airport, awaiting a flight to Las Vegas, for my son’s wedding, so not likely to be on here very much over the next few days. Talk soon.

The moon from my back garden 11.05 p.m. Goodnight Bluesky.

Following a nice chat with @grahamh.bsky.social earlier, about guitar rock and early REM, I was prompted to put on this fine bunch of guitar stranglers. Weren’t they part of something called the Paisley Underground?

I have successfully completed Saturday.

Hadn’t listened to this in the longest time. Dark, mysterious, atmospheric, glad to be reacquainted with it.

All the world's a stage, And all the men and women merely players; They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts, His acts being seven ages.—As You Like It #BookWormSat

@ericluke.bsky.social is a great account to follow. He’s an excellent photographer, who was absolutely everywhere in Ireland, photographing gigs, art, people and places.

Some lunchtime Vivaldi. I generally enjoy anything featuring Jordi Savall and this is no exception. Brings back lovely memories of Venice.

And now, Elric had told three lies. The first concerned his cousin Yyrkoon. The second concerned the Black Sword. The third concerned Cymoril. And upon those three lies was Elric's destiny to be built. -Michael Moorcock Art-Michael Whelan. #BookologyThursday

@louiseann.bsky.social You’re a bad influence on me. A friend is in town tonight house sitting for his ex. (I know, I know), so an emergency gin run had to be undertaken.

Phasers on stun…

Dolores Keane, the queen of Irish song, died yesterday, suddenly and peacefully, at the age of 72. In her memory and for the day that’s in it, here she is with De Danann, singing My Own Dear Galway Bay ( not to be confused with the dreadful Irish American schmaltz of similar title) #DoloresKeane

The Green Crowned Brilliant Hummingbird would like to wish you all Lá fhéile Padraig shona! #speirgorm #stpatricksday

Albums released in October 1972 include a real biggie: Talking Book, the beginning of Stevie Wonder's masterpiece era. This live version of 'Superstition' from Sesame Street is magic: www.youtube.com/watch?v=w89O...
