Albums from 2025 & late 2024 that have been on heavy rotation.
My favourite 3:
Tweedy’s impressive sprawling 3LP effort. Just wonderful. So many great songs.
Cameron Winter. Heavy Metal. A unique voice. Is he taking the piss?
Van Morrison’s Remembering Now. His best album in a decade… maybe
One more celebratory post from me. Aren’t we the lucky ones. #bobdylan #happybirthday

Another book recommendation. #Underland by #RobertMacfarlane. Incredible journeys under the earth’s surface. Communicating tree roots & fungal networks, caves, catacombs, cities beneath cities, meltwater, glacial moulins, underground rivers. Maybe avoid if claustrophobic #BookSky #books

Q7. Unlike any other book I’ve read. Amazing
Part biography, history, science, & also the interconnectedness of things.
Flanagan covers HG Wells, War of the Worlds, Einstein, WW2, POW camps, Tasmania, colonialism & more, going full circle & blending in how it all relates to his own existence.
3/4
Random notes by Tom Cox. Whimsical, funny. Favourite line that I can totally relate to (& pleasingly show my wife):
“Everyone has their own individual sneeze & it's very important to be comfortable with that. Never try to sneeze like somebody else. It will totally fuck you up”
2/4
A deep dive into a favourite Dylan song. Markhorst’s analyses always insightful & enjoyable. Makes me seek out & listen to the live recordings & other connected songs he refers to.

New vegetation on Kangaroo Island rising like a phoenix from the ashes. Some of the plant species absolutely rely on fires to release their podded seeds. It’s a beautiful landscape out here.

The stark, skeletal remains of the scorched trees on Kangaroo Island, burnt in the 2019/2020 fires, look amazing. In many areas they are heavily surrounded by new, dense, green vegetation.

I also worked out (time difference included) that he was probably in the studio recording Leopard Skin Pillbox Hat when I was busy being born.

I’ve been doing this for years but I’ve called it “what was Bob doing when he was my age?”
New horrifying game to play: "what album had Bob Dylan got to by my age"
I’m at Things Have Changed - almost at “Love & Theft”. Peak Bob!

Cover of The Notebook by Tom Cox. Also features a woodpecker, some vinyl records, a pile of paperbacks and a hedgehog in the bottom right hand corner.
" sure, sex is great, but have you ever cracked open a new notebook and written something on the first page with a really nice pen?".
Lovely line in The Notebook by @dj-acid-reflux.bsky.social .

A nice surprise in the mail today! It’s a Dutch postcard I can use as a bookmark when reading the highly enjoyable books by @jochenmarkhorst.bsky.social
Snail mail is sure slow. Almost 4 weeks in transit to reach me down under.

I'm well dressed, waiting on the last train

I lost you awhile ago
But still I don't know why
I can't say your name
Without a crow flying by
Gotta watch my back now
That you turned me around
Got me walking backwards
Into my hometown

"We got a radio jingle here for ya. Okay here we go it's named radio one you're the one for me."
Radio one

Just turn that dial,
Make your music worth while

“World Gone Wrong is a beautiful record by a beautiful man. Readers in a hurry, I have to tell you: that's the review, really. The rest is indulgent speculation.“Robert Wyatt”. Dec 1993
