Just Another Entry

 Interesting documentary on BBC 4 this evening about the run up to the general election of 2005 when Oona King lost out to that slimy George Galloway (of the Respect Party) and how her decision to support the troops going into Irag has caused her some backlash from the community she was MP for in Tower Hamlets. The outcome is ,in my opinion,they voted the wrong person in.

Earlier today popped  over to see my friend Luke as he had some good hash for me.Decided to melt some of it onto toast with bananas and got the trippy hit that way. Played some Hendrix too as they went together well. 

Then did the Tesco Express survey at the Dyke Road store on the boundary between Brighton and Hove/. This is one of the more difficult ones to do as between 3 and 4pm you got all the school children coming out from the nearby schools and colleges filling out the store en mass with snacks and soft drink purchases etc. Well it just gets too crowded to try to stop adults for an interview. 

It was then i decided to have a quick pint at the large pub at the junction close by,and returned an hour later to continue this job.

Crawley Storrington and Polegate visits to come,and one PRS visit in Hove. Life can be so eventful!

Tactile Stuff

Been listening to the "M I U Album" by The Beach Boys quite a bit and Side 2 has really grown on me. Like i said previously on this blog it is an album of two halves,and i guess it needed repeated plays to enjoy it. Perseverance prevailed in the end. 

Two singles today -

Tom Jones "Detroit City / If I Had You" (Decca 1967) - B side is uber cool soul beater
Dean Parrish "It 'll Never be Over For Me / Unchain My Heart" (Acid Jazz 23007) - modern soul A side and an R&B belter on the flip

Two albums -

Boris Gardiner "A Soulful Experience Is Happening" (Vampisoul 2004)
Bobby Lamb And The Keymen "S/t" (BBC Records 1971)

and one CD -

Various Artists "Bombshell, Baby of Bombay" (Bombay Connection CD) - funky bollywood!

Cd's,vinyl and tape are all tactile formats unlike mp3's !!

A trip to Storrington again - final day of survey.

Asha Bhosle - R D Burman - Duniya Mein - Apna Desh
