Today I have consciously uncoupled from Spotify. Should have done this a good while ago. I have moved streaming service to Tidal. I've not done any due diligance, but I hope they are not wanging money into AI weapons research/systems. TBC. Anyway new streaming service, new slate.

I know. The Pallot 'era' was something else. I was so much younger then. Full of vim, vigour and going off pure instinct. I was just wafting around waiting for the right follow up to concentrate the back of my head on.

HANN - We Were Seventeen
...and here's me, 13 years later, in the Carlton Club, Manchester, in this Hann* video. Again the back of the head acting is off the scale. This time at 2:06. This is a beautiful song and with the bonus of the back of me really ought to go viral.
*Hann are brilliant

The Joboxers just on TotP on BBC4. First band I ever saw live, as support for Madness in 1983. 42 years of gigging. Crikey. Anyway never occurred to me watching them wang about on the telly now how much stylistically they were an influence me. Had thought it was more the Mondays and 'Loose Fit'.

Forever in a Glance, by HANN
12 track album
It's not going to be my Album of the Year, as it was only out on Monday, but do yourself a favour and point your ears towards the Hann album, Forever at a Glance. It's just lovely pop music. It's got guitars and lyrics and vocals...stuff like that and it's brill...
