We moved. We have now been in our new house 3 weeks and the chaos is calming down. Therefore tonight I will be in my candle lit office, drinking fine wines and playing great records from the 1970s. If I were younger I would live stream the vibe. #Contentment

Other notable VAR supporters because "the rules".

Couldn't get booked into our regular eateries tonight, so took a chance on this place: thepeartreekitchen.co.uk Oh, dear Lord. Once familiar streets, now alien to me, lead here. It was SENSATIONAL If you are in SE London. GO. Unbelievable grub.

I just walked past a house with a Christmas wreath still on the front door.

Gary "Railway Children" Warren now does a pretty spiffy online radio show. Always trickily themed. And this one is particularly well realised. kpiss.fm/episode/wood...

Spurs playing Eintracht Frankfurt. Legacy German side. However, just realised "Tracht" in German, means "costume". Are they really called One Costume Frankfurt?

When I am drunk - and I enjoy being well alight - there are few records I like to sing along more with than this. Full Confession? I sometimes high kick like a Tiller Girl to it too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=IA7F...

For so many decades people didn't get prog rock. I loved it. Yes' cover of Paul Simon's America is exactly what a jazz player would have done with it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=eGWz...

Last years jamboree has been extended into this year. Come and see us, it's some night. 50 Years of showbiz hoopla blitzed at 300mph. Never knowingly undersold. Hang onto your hats. dannybakerstore.com

I have been alerted to the attached random frame in the film Fackham Hall. I am both honoured and perplexed. (That really is my childhood address).

Here you go. Beautiful. The sonic equivalent of taking off tight shoes. www.youtube.com/results?sear...

Michael Aspel is 93 today. Here we are during the 7 years we worked together weekly in the 1980s, on a live remote from Southend Beach. I still have the seagull hat.

Been a great FA Cup weekend. Maybe instead of ditching the FA Cup we should ditch the leagues. Just everyone playing everyone in a series of mad "tournaments. I mean, on their day, we can see all of these "elites" can be beat. The Leagues Are An Illusion. #NoMoreLeagues

Bob Weir of The Grateful Dead has died. I tried with that band so many times but just could not connect with their music at all. However BW's solo career was another thing. This is such a beautiful song. www.youtube.com/watch?v=z722...

1976. 50 years ago, Punk arrived to apparently rescue us all from boredom. Here is a small selection of the tunes in the charts at the time. Fact is, maybe punks were the boring ones, wanting to kill disco fun with heavy blokey rock.

The Treehouse. We go with very little hoopla as to our existence. No USP, no topical angle. No "seasons" or specials. Just relentless timeless entertainment. On and on. Join us. patreon.com/dannybaker

Here on Christmas Eve a reminder of the greatest ever Christmas Eve song: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSnS...

Manic Street Preachers cover Wham www.youtube.com/watch?v=FR3c...

The remaining dates on the final tour are here. It is a sensational night like no other. 50 years of show business wildly relived. No more bridges to burn. Get that Christmas gift - in the diary. dannybakerstore.com

The first film I can remember laughing at till I thought I would die was Norman Wisdom's "On The Beat" which came out today in 1962 ( I probably saw a re-release a couple of years after). What was yours? (Cinema releases only).

Just seen that the magnificent Texan Joe Ely has died aged 78. I met him when he supported the Clash in the late 70s (the idiot punk crowds would bottle him offstage of course). A great songwriter and provider of one of the greatest album titles ever: Musta Notta Gotta Lotta.

In just a few hours Dick Van Dyke will be 100 years old. Dick Van Dyke! 100! Here he is chatting with Sid James (filming Carry On Up The Khyber) on the Chitty Bang Bang backlot.

Stanley Baxters death is hard for those seeking to explain his magnitude. Theres no one with who to compare him for younger people. No M&W, Ronnie Barker, Dick Emery, Benny Hill - no equivalent entertainer. We have presenters & stand ups now but nothing on TV like Stanley Baxter. That's all gone.

Here's me and my boy Sonny playing a football computer game in his bedroom. He's about 7 here. He will be 39 in the morning. #WhoKnowsWhereTheTimeGoes

Late night groove www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wZI...

Treehouse 587 is yours in the morning. This means if you join us afresh you have another 586 there to enjoy. There really is no show like us. Our USP? No idea. Just entertain people, that's always been my aim. And The Treehouse does just that. www.patreon.com/dannybaker

The World Cup Draw starts at 5pm today. Reading reports, I'd tune in at about 8.45 to see if they're getting anywhere near doing it.

There you go. Donald Trump & Benny Hill.

Well, here we go again. Having "finished" the sensational fourth tour last Summer, we have now decided to go again in the places we couldn't make. (Plus a return to a couple we did) It's a proper night out. Imagine their little faces on Xmas morning! dannybakerstore.com

Blue Oyster Cult's masterpiece is the album "Secret Treaties". The opening track "Career Of Evil" was co written by Patti Smith. Never knew she sang it with them. Well, she did. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsE8...

Wonderful this. Boris Karloff, Vincent Price and Red Skelton sing "The Two Of Us". Boris recreates his famous Frankenstein wave halfway through. www.youtube.com/watch?v=goXi...

Fact is, if England were playing against Erling Haaland tonight we would still be losing 4-3.

It is now mathematically impossible for England not to win the next World Cup. #SRBENG

Another England game where the crowd have been silenced (not in a good way) and match commentary has been reduced to muttering and mumbling, desperately searching for positives. #SRBENG

Blue Oyster Cult were a terrific band so much more than "Don't Fear The Reaper". Secret Treaties was their masterpiece. This track opened that LP. Insanely good lyrics by Patti Smith. "I'd spend your ransom money, but still I'd keep your sheep". www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqjB...

It is Keanu Reeves birthday. Here is when I met him to promote the movie Speed. Still pretty funny I think. www.youtube.com/watch?v=TxkN...

Wow. Never realised Max Bygraves mum was a Mrs Doubtfire Garry Shandling.

Heads up everyone! Vogue have got a Big Fashion Issue out. I normally only buy it for their football coverage.

We met in 1979. Last Saturday saw us 37 years married (at which time we already had two kids) Me & Wend, still stepping out, on holiday last week.

Charles Hawtrey watches another "huge" Premier League match. It's available now on Sky Sports Stale. #LIVARS

Paul Carrack's new (old style) country album. Loving this: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Me at the NME 1979. I'm 21. My job was to go to gigs, attend after parties, album launches, get free LPs and fly about the world interviewing rock stars. Trust me, being on TV later was small beer indeed.

Man United still looking like a stodgy old mid-table team. No real threat or flair. LumpenPrem.

Everyone explaining how the rules say no attacker can be within one metre of a wall with three defenders in it but nobody is saying, "Why? Why can't a player be within a metre of three players? Who brought that in? And what for?" #MeddlingBureaucracy #AntiGoalGargoyles

It is estimated that we now spend one third of our adult lives pouring over food packaging looking for Sell By Dates. Orange Juice leads the way, hiding its info somewhere on the bottle in thin spidery script that, once located, has to be held up to the light like a mystic rune.

Just tried to buy a t-shirt featuring the band Kokomo. There is no company offering Kokomo album T-Shirts. And yet we dare to call ourselves civilised.

Premier League season gets underway. Media gorge themselves on science based opinion, predictions and analysis.

Watching a doc on how the Soviets pushed the Nazi's out of Russia in 1944 and, detailing German POW's, this shot came up. I know this is not germane but seriously. That's a weirdly long neck. #TheThing

Good Evening, Everyone!

George Harrison was NOT stifled by the Beatles. "All Things Must Pass" is a goodish single album. After that there's not a great deal. Love George but that's the truth.
