Great effort Tom. The only thing I could have predicted about this list is that there wasn't going to be a 'Stairway To Heaven' or 'Smoke On The Water' career defining song. Next time you do this...pick The LA's or Jeff Buckley...one official album and you're done!

Just 3 studio albums then they split. The first record 'Rattlesnakes' is their best but the others aren't far off.

Well it allows the media to wet themselves with excitement covering Farage for the umpteenth time this week. So his face will appear on more front pages and on news broadcasts all day. If you landed here from Mars you would think this guy is our leader.

If ever there was a day to be WFH in Scotland ☔ 🪁 ⛈️ Don't think we've had a named Summer storm since that system began. A day for coffee & looking out to sea with the dog at my feet...with a themed playlist.

I have this to come on the Commotions Artist15 I'm doing. Great song.
