I was named after "Stephen" by Neil Sedaka; it was on the radio while my dad drove home from the hospital after I was born. But I've always had the softest spot for this overblown monster, a constant presence on my dad's in-car mixtapes back in the day. RIP Neil.

The Euston guest pianist just played Lauper's Time After Time. Which is always welcome and far preferable to the herbert who bashes out Smells Like Teen Spirit.

In a couple of months, it'll be the 40th birthday of the C86 cassette. So why not prepare for the occasion by reading the Penderyn Prize-shortlisted, Richard Osman-recommended book on what happened next to the 22 bands on the tape? Available wherever you usually buy your books.

Travel tip: look dishevelled and confused and they let you onto an earlier train. Even works when you don't do this deliberately.

Thought "Waiting for the Out" was very, very good. While not wishing to deny anybody work, I hope it's left as a one-off 6 part series.

Heard the sad news about Sly Dunbar on the school run of all places. I don’t even really know where to start with his immeasurable contribution to music and, well, everything, but watching him at work is best. Here’s Sly and Robbie in action with Black Uhuru at the Rainbow in Finsbury Park in 1981

Last Thoughts on Gerry Gable and his War Against the Fascists
Gerry Gable, the most tenacious post-war anti-fascist Britain ever produced, had been ill for some time when he finally passed away on Saturday, January 3, 2026.

So much truth. And controversial view: for me one of the key differences between radio programmes and podcasts is that radio programmes rarely make me shout GET THE FUCK ON WITH IT I DON’T CARE WHAT YOU SAID EARLIER IN THE PUB I WASN’T THERE

We put onto people our own ideas about what they must be like when we admire their work or their look and believe that because *we* are a certain way, they must be too. Every now and again our perception of what someone must be like is so wide of the mark it's a total shock when we find out...-

Speaking of films, the campaign starts now to persuade Channel 5 to use the black and white version of "Scrooge" next year.(Though the director's accidental appearance in the "mirror scene" is just as good in the colorizzzed version.)
