Okay i have ruffled a few feathers of certain people but then it has happened to me. So c'est la vie! And i was suffering from a bloody headache at the time which simmered down a little bit  at The Basketmakers this evening - hence the drink of plain water - no beer. To paraphrase "if you find me so irratating in the first place, why did you ever join the stall?" - ouch! (see below at "Rant Rant Rant")  I admit i have a sharp tongue at times but i was being slightly funny and "smug" as [profile] bradxxx would say. (whom i don't find "smug" at all but a right down-to-earth-fella) - I guess it is always a thin line between insults and barbed humour and it is so easy to offend and for that i apologise. Well , it is done and dusted now,and i don't think she is a witch at all ; however, recording that one side of the Leopard Leg LP deep in darkest Sussex forest at night does sound like a covern summoning up demons,spirits, and goblins. Scary stuff but enjoyable,and definitely was in my Top 40 of 2006 - i know i digress - just like to shake hands and say to RFW "no hard feelings". (As long as you don't feel my "hard"  - oops joking again!). Kissey kissey!!

Anyway i had to leave there  (the Basketmakers) about 8pm to do a PRS at The Western Front , a night of live locally based singer/songwriters (Cate Ferris,Emily Baker and Aaron King) and jotted down the tunes of what each performer was singing,whether own material or covers  - not heard of any of them before this evening.  Discovered a few moments ago that all of them have tracks to listen to on MySpace. 
I opted  to have a lime cordial with soda whilst in the venue,deciding that the beer there (being keg lager) would cause my headache to roar back up again. I left the venue just after 11.30 and had the munchies for a nice juicy kebab.

Now then must try to be up early as it is going to a fine dry day as far as the weather is concerned,and a trip to London for that RUSS job.

Well here it is the end of the year review of my top forty records of the year which is a mixed bag between new stuf,compilations and reissues. Enjoy.

By the way i noticed that  [profile] bagrec has done a best of the year as well - will be interesting to compare notes.We obviously differ over the Scott Walker one - oh well,c'est la vie.! Also there is a few on his list like Grizzly Bear which i have yet to investigate.
