Oh Amon

A.J. Hitchcock after he’s beaten the bat and struck the pads

Happy "The Hold Steady London Weekender" week to all who celebrate.

Looking forward to watching Corner of the Day tonight

Not sure but Where Eagles Dare and Kelly’s Heroes (both directed by Brian Hutton) had the same font on the credits

He had such charisma didn’t he. Also Uncle Leo from Seinfeld is in Kelly’s Heroes

I watched Kelly’s Heroes last night. My main takeaway, Sgt Oddball aside, was that Telly Savalas was a really great actor.

Might I suggest 1985: The Miracle Year by Hüsker Dü? Guaranteed to make you run faster

A cover of the book The Umbrella Man and Other Stories, alongside the following quote - “I have given over 1000 interviews and, trust me, no-one thinks about this subject like Martin Fitzgerald.” - Dr Toni Glover, JFK assassination witness

Like almost everything in this subject, Toni’s quote can be interpreted multiple ways.

Regardless, the book is available to pre-order below, from your bookseller of choice

Ah, the old “we’ll start military operations and hope the local population rise up.” That always works doesn’t it?

In Epsom today at the Horton Arts Centre craft market. The heykidsrocknroll.etsy.com stall is fuelled by coffee, pastries and an insatiable desire for CRAFTS! Come & say hi if you're local!

A photo of Bob Dylan in 1966. He’s at breakfast, looking exhausted

I’m going to 5 (five) gigs across 5 (five) consecutive nights this week

It’s not to everyone’s taste, but I adore the salt liquorice

Season Two could be the worse thing I’ve ever seen. I was willing it to end

At least! There’s a fairly interesting espionage story there but it gets drowned out by a James Bond carousel of explosions and people clinging on to things from great heights.

A still from Politics Live. Dominic Sandbrook smiles above the question - “Is reading books good for us?”
