Warne sounds so great here. For whatever ups and downs we might have with the internet and social media it's still absolute magic to stumble on these time capsules and see heroes that loom so large but seem so distant suddenly brought to life.

Anyone done the numbers on how many people who signed the petition for another general election 4 months after the last one are the same people who've been saying "you lost, get over it" to anyone who criticised Brexit or any of the succession of shit-show Tory governments over the last 8 years?

Both live recordings of improvising musicians in total communion with each other and with the music, at the peak of their powers, completely on fire. Super nourishing.

Giving this platform a go, I joined a few months ago but never really got round to building an account, but @jonscott.bsky.social tells me it's the place to be so I'm back. Anyone got any tips on how to find people to follow? I can't bear the thought of starting from scratch and adding one by one
