#CDintheCar First plays for #Morrissey & wonderful Help2 album. Monsters of pig alley the clear standout on Mozza’s album tho “zoom zoom”, “you’re right, it’s time”’ & “Lester Bangs” are up there. Help2, whilst too many songs melt into each other, some belters inc. Damon Albarn. #musicsky

#morrissey at the o2 London. “I know it’s over” was stunning “There is a light..” epic What a wonderful huge return to form new song “Monsters of Pig Alley” is lyrically and musically top draw. No one is right on everything & I disagree on his “cultural” view but good to hear he has a voice.

#CDinthecar Out and about this week so: #BaxterDury 2025 stunner incl. track of the year #Reverend best of is packed with quality (No soap in a dirty war, HwCotWorld) #ArcadeFire suburbs (Funeral still my fav) #Morrissey debut (US version) still sounds great. #musicsky

#CDintheCar Last one for the year. The live #starsailor album is wonderful & includes a great cover of “Jealous Guy”. #pulp a great return & their best since TiH. #musicsky

Such sad & terrible news. RIP Perry Bamonte. #TheCure
