Annie & The Caldwells are touring next year - Ronnie Scott's at the end of January, then Newcastle, Leeds, Manchester and Bristol. Don't hesitate. Now all we need are some Scottish dates.

“I’m as meek as hell, and I’m not going to take it anymore.”

Danny Thompson RIP. Played with Roy Orbison, Blues Incorporated, Pentangle, John Lee Hooker, Cliff, Rod, Kate Bush, Talk Talk, Tim Buckley, Tubby Hayes ... I do have a few records he's not on.

Like a family of Rubik’s Cubes … I think they might be about to become a sensation, right after Later airs in October

I know, I know … you’d think I was still some kind of TV expert or something

The Suede / Miss Annie & The Caldwells summit - coming to a telly near you next month

I'm delighted to share the finished cover of my new book, Upon A White Horse: Journeys in Ancient Britain and Ireland. It will be published on September 11, by @headlinebooks.bsky.social. I hope you like it. Spot the wee fox!

It’s mine. He said, do you have all the issues? I do … “Wow, that must be a big room.”

Michael knows that @mojomagazine.bsky.social will be the best read you’ll hear all month

Rotten way to start the week, but RIP to my first musical hero and the man behind the best album my parents owned

See you there?

I feel this is important.

Happy birthday, youngster.

But that’s a novel I definitely would read

It is a great pic, though, even if it does undermine Alan’s point about Cardiff rocking when George VI died

I 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

Read 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

Two pubs, once each. Same night. A mere blink of the eye compared to all the time spent in the beach

Never a truer word - 10th day in Dunoon, longest I’ve been home in a good while

Dunoon’s was packed!

10 days of dogsitting ahead of me. We’re not in Tottenham anymore

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.

A Friday morning singles session at the end of seven days the likes of which ...

Sir Philip, whose teenage years serve an inspiration 450 years later - just think of all the obscure vinyl he must have found

Will investigate - never heard of it!

I got that feeling when in Den B, too. Must spend time in some of the others one day - just do a wee tour for a holiday
