When my son was little, I couldn’t stand the idea of playing children’s music in the car so I used to play this for him and he absolutely loved itπŸ˜‚

Extract from my new novel TEEN ANGELS .
Meanwhile in Hells nightclub-

Jazz tried to scoff but faltered. Her gaze flicked to the DJ, then to the shadows where Mark E. Smith was holding court with a swarm of regretful ex-roadies.

β€œWe are wasting our best material in here,” she muttered.

Meet Jazz β€” your new sarcastic, eye-rolling best friend who stomps her way into Heaven in Doc Martens, blasting her Goth playlist.
From my new novel TEEN ANGELS, Jazz is a force of nature fueled by hairspray and attitude β€” never afraid to go where other angels wouldn’t dare to tread . #80sMusic

WILL SERGEANT - Read It In Books

If you're an OG fan of the Bunnymen you'll love this episode with Will Sergeant- gasp at how Echo the drum machine cost a weeks wages (Β£30) and laugh about how lead singers only carry grudges - never
equipment, maybe inspiring dressing room graffiti ? #fallfriday

This Nation's Saving Grace turns 40 today, released 23rd September 1985. Possibly The Fall's most popular album. It includes 'Bombast'. When pushed at a Q&A, Steve Hanley cited it as his personal favourite bass line.

LONELY WATER (1973): Legendary child-frightener, and one of the most influential and effective PIFs ever made. Donald Pleasence's voice helped lower the number of child deaths by drowning and opened the door to the scary, deadly PIFs of the 70s & 80s. A folk horror film condensed into 90 seconds.
