#NowPlaying #MusicSky #FallSky Is Fall Tuesday a thing? It is in this house.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky #JazzSky Some day off, Tuesday afternoon Jazz to kick back to.

I couldn't find an iPod cable but did find these.

I've just come upstairs to put some washing away and make the bed. I think I'll leave the bed for a while. #WhatALife #CatSky

Shopping in a deserted Sainsburys listening to the Freak Zone is one of life's great simple pleasures.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky One of my favourite 'straights' go Psych albums.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky A fantastic record. Quite pastoral and gentle at times but something unsettling there as well.

Jo found this in a drawer. Now to find a lead so I can charge it up and find out what's on it. I loved the iPod, not so keen on iTunes,

#NowPlaying #MusicSky Mark Peters is an absolutely fantastic artist. Definitely worth investigating his back catalogue. This album is beautiful and sublime.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky Another top quality @cherryredrecords.bsky.social box.

Car Boot booty. Just for the lovely @kmale.bsky.social

The Everly Brothers! Simon and Garfunkel! Cook and Moore! Reunions people asked for. But what if there were reunions people *didn't* ask for? Would there be civil unrest? Well, me and @whenisbirths.bsky.social have just signed our first book contract in almost 20 years so you'll soon find out.

Colombo is the greatest TV detective and brilliantly written. But they didn't mind a bit of physical comedy from time to time. And hats off to Peter Falk for agreeing to do this. youtube.com/shorts/SK6cd...

Here I am again, sitting in the bleakest, coldest, darkest racecourse* bar in Britain. But I still return, why? Too see if it's got any more welcoming? *We are at a antique fair. I hate horse racing.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky They described this as "just raw, angry, dissonant, epic instrumental rock". They're not wrong.

Read this thread from Dave about this marvellous compilation. It's just perfect.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky #SoundOnTheRound #HMHB

#NowPlaying #MusicSky Another lost artist that has been rediscovered. Hang on, that was last night! This is obviously one of the greatest albums ever made. And this Tone Poet edition is sonic perfection* *To my 60yo ears

#nowplaying Absurdly enjoyable

We don't do a lot of telly but we are enjoying For All Mankind on Apple. Especially as by Season 4 it's turned into a heist movie.

This isn't a compilation. It's cold burnt toast eaten in a hurry. It's trying to find your knock-off Adidas school bag. It's finding your bike has a puncture, so you'll have to walk to school. It's a "Proustian rush in disc form.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky A delightful new re-release. Another 'lost' artist with a strange back story, but don't let out you off. Perhaps one for @nportnell.bsky.social to investigate, if I may be so bold.

Update: The ex-Radio One DJ I sometimes deliver to, now has a lifesize fibreglass Roman Centurion next to his front door. Message ends.

Another Inventory that informs, educates and is incredibly entertaining. As always start off with the premise that all rock stars are knobs, unless they prove to me otherwise, I was pleased to see that CSN (and occasionally Y) don't disprove my theory. And I definitely like Andy more the Deja Vu.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky #ProgSky Last of the weekends purchases. When I bought this the guy next to me said "I've never heard Gentle Giant, what are they like?" I said "Imagine some complicated Prog, then double it" I may have put him off.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky A superlative Bob Stanley/Pete Wiggs compilation. With another one on the way this week, I hope.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky I haven't played this genius album in far too long.

Jo has spend about a month rebuilding and refurbishing this lamp she picked up at a car boot for peanuts. I think she has done a fantastic job. It's stunning.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky As I'm easily suggestible, I've popped this on. And a question, has there been a biography of Scott?

#NowPlaying #MusicSky Another of the weekend purchases. Probably my favourite NY album.

After this morning's success with Plex, I've now fixed my tone-arm which was dropping much to quickly. As I'm on a roll, anybody need anything sorted? The economy? World peace?

#NowPlaying #MusicSky #JazzSky This is fantastic. A fan of Free Jazz in a big band style. If that's what it is, I'm definitely NOT an expert.

Dear ØXN, please do a whole album of post-78 Scott, starting with The Electrician.

I know that in the grand scheme of things this isn't that important but I've managed to get my Plex server working again after a fairly catastrophic failure on Friday, and I'm pretty pleased about it. A full rescan of 3000+ CDs is in progress, but that's a small price to pay.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky Having a fairly lazy day off, though I have washed the car! Listening to a fabulous weekend purchase.

#NowPlaying #MusicSky A Dense, Free, Funky and Folky treasure.

“A man's work is nothing but this slow trek to rediscover, through the detours of record fairs, those two or three great and simple LPs in whose presence his heart might still open.”

#NowPlaying #MusicSky #BeatlesSky A French Abbey Road for a fiver at the car boot this morning, stuffed in between some bog standard 12" singles. Sounds fantastic after a clean. #Humminguru

#NowPlaying #MusicSky @nportnell.bsky.social was right (of course) this mono copy sounds immense. I think that most 60s vinyl is pretty indestructible.

A lovely record fair today. No earth shattering purchases but a bargain mono Sgt Pepper to add to my Beatles mono collection. An Astrud Gilberto I've been after for a while. And the nicest On The Beach I've ever seen.

James Herberts The Rats. Any Denis Wheatley I could lay my hands on. And The Occult: A History

Aah, the joys of East Croydon station when your train has been cancelled!

Finished. Records have been purchased.

First ones here!

Just going through that there London!
