I'll support just about any Welsh sports person or team, but not him.

91. Age Of Chance - Kiss (FON) All the singles to top the NME Indie Charts since its launch in 1981, complete with an overview of the other music in the charts each week.

Blog update: The final NME Indie Number One of 1986 was Age of Chance's cover of Prince's "Kiss", which was number one for a staggering ten weeks. Despite leading to a major label deal, it turned out to be the (largely forgotten) peak of the career.

All the best Bill! Got everything crossed for you.

Yeah, it was excellent. She's very good - didn't realise she directed it until after I'd watched it.

Considering you watch far more films than anyone I know, I think 11 of those is a reasonable figure for me. Watched Sorry Baby the other night, and Old Joy is on my Mubi watch list.

Favourite Films Directed By Women A list of 103 films compiled on Letterboxd, including The Lighthouse (2006), Celia (1989), Losing Ground (1982), Nomadland (2020) and Booksmart (2019).

In honour of #InternationalWomensDay , these are some of my favourite films directed by women. Trailblazers, visionaries and powerful agents for change and awareness - I love them all and there are so many more to see… #FilmSky ❤️🙏

Thought so. I was talking to Dave afterwards and thought you were there, but I think you went before I could say hello!

Were you at Gintis the other night?

BLIMEY! #TheFootball

What are they planning?

The Boy, who hasn't watched rugby with me for a fair few years, shouted "Come on George!" when that goal went in.

Blimey. #TheFootball

Someone on 6music had an interview with their niece (?) recently, but I can't find it on iPlayer. I thought it was Jamz, but no sign.

I really like it. It's the only thing I have of theirs though, so I don't have anything to compare it to.

Wonderful Welsh harpist. She turns up fairly often around here, but I didn't know her either until I picked up those two, and now I always look out for her stuff.

I'd 🙄

Yep, is have had all of those. Those two Catrin Finch and Seckou Keita ones are glorious, Clychau Dibon especially.

There you go, I didn't know that. Now that's cleared up we can both enjoy our weekends. 😁

This is very confusing, but knowing me it's my fault. You said you loved Bedsit Disco Queen, and that's her autobiography 🤔

Oh, I thought that was what you meant when you said you needed to read it.

Oh yes, loved that.

You need to read the McCartney one? I'll send it along when I've finished it if you like.

Twelve CDs. Afro beat soul sisters by the Lijadu sisters, the rough guide to the music of Malaysia, real life by Joan as policewoman, coyote butterfly by Simon Joyner, start breaking my heart by Manitoba, youth and young manhood by kings of Leon, a creature I don't know by Laura Marling, amplified heard, walking wounded and temperamental by everything but the girl, the best of elbow, and viva dixie submarine transmission plot by sparkle horse

Man on the run, Paul McCartney in the nineteen seventies by Tom Doyle

Finished the Tracey Thorn autobiography today, and it's influenced what I've listened to this week. #WhatIPlayedHashtag

And next out of the book box is this. #NowReading

Just found This Is Sparklehorse on Prime last night and might just watch it again to mark the occasion.

Karl Wallinger was from about five miles from here, and this cover makes me happy.

Oh good, those Japanese Trojan box sets have started appearing on ebay again 🙄

I tried it again, trying this time, and was a second slower.

We sadly can now no longer attend Roni Size and LTJ Bukem in Cardiff on the 14th and promoters not allowing resell or refund even WITH the ticket protection I took out 🤷‍♂️. If anyone wants them they’re yours for face value ono. #musicsky
