Funny People Again

One of my favurite people i speak to on the phone (apart from GC) is Eve Reilly. She laughs so easily and we always make each other laugh and this is a phot from December's Market Researchers Xmas Party with all the gang there including GC,Ann WN and the Notorious Big a.ka. Evil Barbara. Anyway it was Eve who has ben pleading with EB to get GC back on ORA's books again for ages. Why the recent interest by EB in GC - what nefarious plan is she brewing?

Eve reilly at the Party

Watched that free Guardian DVD but it's not one of Hitchcock's best thrillers and is not a patch on North By Northwest with that great soundtrack music by Bernard Hermann.

Tasty Twelve

I have decided - no more 7 on Friday or the six on Sunday but the Tasty 12 items on my playlist of the week. Hence here is the first 12 this Sunday.

1/ Drums Not Dead _ The Liars (Mute CD/DVD)
2/ Tanglewood Numbers - Silver Jews (Drag City CD)
3/ Vitamin B12 - Live 23/03/06 DVD - my own
4/ The Fall - Cerebral Caustic (Castle 2XCD)
5/ Downbeat The Ruler (Heartbeat CD)
6/ Scott Walker - Climate of Hunter (Virgin CD)
7/ Tropicalia (Soul Jazz CD)
8/ Beleza Tropical (Luaka Bop CD)
9/ Vitamin B12 - Badges (Tip Top double LP)
10/ Lol Coxhill - Dubois Solos (Nato CD)
11/ Khaled - The Best of The Early Years (Nascinete CD)
12/ 25 Years Of Rough Trade Shops (Rough Trade 4CD box)

It's funny since i haven't played the Rough Trade box till recently after awhile and rediscovering some old gems and forgotten memories. Drums Not Dread has been a sleeper for awhile and with each play it gets better and better and more profound. Yet to play the DVD side though of this great double which i bought for a song at Snoopers for £5 or currently at Resident for £12.99 !!!

The clocks went forward and so i had a ly-in for the lost hour. Perhaps we can keep it this way and not put them back again for winter.

Hmm, i wonder what the Notorious Big AKA The Evil Barbara is doing today. Killing cats or downsizing her workforce and then panicking because she has nobody to do her dirty work for her.One day perhaps she will regret her actions. What goes around comes around is what i say.




EB - Neanderthal Model of The year?

Sometimes you have to be cruel to be kind.

Now then what a fool AP is. He is just wired up wrong. I met him in the street on Saturday in Brighton in Trafalgar Street but was on the mobile phone to GC at the time as i was going to post a CD i sold on ebay to a guy in Mexico. People are strange (also a famous Doors tune).




Just a small selection of my CD's,music Dvd's and vinyl which is near to 2000 items. It's a fair amount but not as big as Alasdair Willis's 5000 items or the lot that the late John Peel had.

Alasdairs' website is fascinating. Visit http://www.alasdairwillis.com for a mind blowing trawel.

This was sent to me a few moments ago via email and i just rolled on the floor in laughter so here is the limerick reprinted for your own amusement.

An interviwer called Andy Parr
Never drove himself a car
He rarely uses the post
When it really matters the most
Which is why he never gets very far!

What a hoot. Well that's all for now.

Another Wet Day

Well it has been another wet day.Now that spring is here whilst its quite milder i wished it wouldn't be so wet, especially for door to door jobs.

Mostly listened to music whilst blogging. Had a funny phone chat with GC. Uploaded some pics into my userpic area and read a book.

Looked around the excellent ubuweb site for snippets on sound poets and other audio experimentors. Worth a visit,just go to www.ubu.com and you will a wealth of material.
