Exhausted by all the noise, culture wars, politics, gender debates, health takes, its become overkill on here. I just want to share music, art, travel, & photography... Everyone’s entitled to an opinion, even if it’s wrong…
But..instead of me moaning, its time to go in hard with the mute option. 😁😁

youtu.be/xWag5lNUlz4?... Turnstile channel pure 80s, Lifeson/Marr/McGeoch, style chordal work & arpeggios, whammy bar and all, then detonate into a Rage Against the Machine evel finish. That contrast is why they stand out.

Don’t believe everything you read online, especially if I posted it in 2018 trying to get you into Turnstile. Didn’t work. 😂

Saw Ian Brown at the Liquid Rooms in ’99. Cracking tunes, proper atmosphere , sort of gig where you forgive the vocals because you’re emotionally invested & possibly 5 pints deep, but yeah, he’ won't be lining up to belt out a bit of Whitney Houston at karaoke anytime soon.😁

Sakamoto’s music has been an ever present in my life, my wee musical companion through change, loss, growth, & reflection. Sakamoto's along with Glass taught me that music doesn’t need to be loud to be profound, most important though, that a single note can hold an entire world of feeling.

Ryuichi Sakamoto’s Opus is less a performance than a quiet goodbye.
Every note feels suspended between presence & absence, fragile, deliberate, eternal. Minimal piano, maximum soul. A final statement that doesn’t end, it simply fades into memory. I miss this mans music so much. #NowPlaying 🎧

I’ve had to mute the words “America” & “War,” .Apologies if you were just posting Horse with No Name Or The U2 album. I know you’re not invading anyone, you’re just emotionally lost in a very beige way.

Very smooth whiskey. Underrated and can normally be picked up fairly cheap.

My preference is normally a more peaty Islay malt, but, I’ve went for the Auchentoshan Lowland malt for a wee change.🥃

Late entrants demanding a go at my liver. Think I might go for the outlier Weedgie malt, Auchentoshen, a nice easy to drink lowland malt.

My lads always get me a bottle when they visit which is always a nice. None of my kids touch alcohol so I can’t even have a nip with them when they come up. My liver’s fair game😂

It’ll just be the one bottle I stick to. I’m not a lager or beer drinker, if I have a pint, it’s usually Guinness. Tonight, though, it’s strictly single malt only

You rarely see Metheny CDs out in the wild, apart from his last few.

Ah, fair enough. Think the first time I seen it was about 40 years ago on BBC 2. House to myself tonight, No work for a while, so you have inspired me. ✊

Kathryn Joseph & Gruff Rhys are inspired choices for vocalists. I’ve ignored the recent track releases so as to hear it as a whole.

This numbered Audio Fidelity pressing of Blade Runner by Vangelis goes for ridiculous money nowadays. Sounds stunning though. #NowPlaying #Vinyl 🎧
