Dunoon-Phnom Penh-Sana’a-Kyzyl-Kidal-Tegucigalpa. Still running away from Life 1.0
Rotten way to start the week, but RIP to my first musical hero and the man behind the best album my parents owned

18.06.2025 06:01 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0It is a great pic, though, even if it does undermine Alan’s point about Cardiff rocking when George VI died
18.06.2025 05:45 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0I did. But I’m still not having a Cardiff rock’n’roll scene two years before Elvis recorded That’s All Right, even if it is possible they were supping their frothy coffees a year before anyone in Soho (London’s first coffee shop with an espresso machine, the Moka, opened in 1953). It is pretty good
18.06.2025 05:12 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Read an acclaimed fact-based novel recently that begins in 1952 Cardiff, with espresso machines and rock’n’roll everywhere, and I wish somebody had turned to the author and raised an alarm. Had to put it down while still on the first page

Not that quality of surrealism, but I was standing next to two people at a Michael Kiwanuka show. They talked for an hour, I tried my hardest to remember all of it, but some got away before I could write it down.

I think about Jacques Brel a lot.
It would have been his 96th birthday today. I wish he'd had more than 49.

New music for Wednesday. Park Jiha last night at Cafe Oto. Traditional Korean instruments, loops and melancholy electronica. The album is called All Living Things
