I like books. Wrote ‘The Year of Reading Dangerously’. Now writing ‘Inventory: An Unreliable Guide to My Record Collection’. Co-host Backlisted podcast @backlisted.bsky.social. I don’t only like books. No DM please.

So many people I've come across have been indifferent to books, and quite a few hate books, any books.

Bezos has killed the Washington Post's books pages. John Williams is a mensch, and a good and loyal friend, to me, to @backlisted.bsky.social and to anyone who loves literature and reading. Now more than ever, you know where not to buy your books, or anything else for that matter.

Love the colour and texture of this. Suburbia, Beatles, 1967, Liverpool; might be of interest to @iammilliam.bsky.social @andrewmale.bsky.social ?

I'm not sure Lewis Capaldi is cut out for the showbusiness tbh.

Lewis Capaldi, his manager and a photographer.

Last night, I watched the Lewis Capaldi: How I'm Feeling Now (2023) documentary on Netflix, which was a surprisingly tough watch. In addition to making me feel very anxious on his behalf, at points it was like watching Slade In Flame, in particular the record company and management types.

I'd be distressed if it wasn't. (This entry also contains some discussion of Ringo's Sentimental Journey. PS. Check your DM.)

Well this Rock Follies box set isn’t going to watch itself.

Regularly bumped into Noel in our corner shop In W London. Never breathed a word.

It's probably my favourite British sitcom, bar none. And - if you're watching carefully - ultimately really depressing. Perfect!

Would she be happier with Terry? Discuss.

Rightly so, I appease them with gifts of silver on an almost daily basis.

I went early or late with the Inventory on Blood & Chocolate by Elvis Costello and the Attractions, but it's Wednesday so here it is one last time. Read it via www.patreon.com/backlisted @backlisted.bsky.social for roughly a 45th of the cost of a ticket to his upcoming Radio Soul! 1977-86 tour.

If you haven’t heard the album, I highly recommend it.

Listening to late Bacharach-era Dionne, like it was the ‘60s or the ‘90s.
