First post of 2026!
And I think I’ve already found my album of the year…

1:39. And so begins the most sublime passage of music ever consigned to tape. At least in my opinion.

Elevated the Cymru national team in the early 90’s, beating the world champions Germany in ‘91 and a penalty kick away from qualifying for USA 94.

Gorffwys mewn hedd Terry.

Great update from Mark Palios.

I can’t abide the detractors with their “Palios Out” chants as soon as we go a goal down. I can’t see any of them selling their pension to keep the club afloat.

Great tune.

7 ?

After listening to this I’ve gone back and reviewed their back catalog. I’d forgotten how much I like Midlake.

The lad Barrett for me. Kept us in the game with 3 cracking stops in the first half.

Some great bands on that list that have completely slipped out of my mind.
I loved that Colder album, similarly The Delays and Delgados. Shack/Michael Head I’m pleased to say have remained a constant.

Happy birthday to Mark Day. Enjoy his stellar guitar playing on this clip of Performance by Happy Mondays, filmed for The Other Side of Midnight in 1988. Watch the full video including Tony Wilson's intro at youtu.be/cZvdXEjtl4c

Another gem from HMHB this year

He could talk fairly well though he couldn’t pronounce the letter B
I said, “That’s OK lad. It makes life much easier for me.”
He said his name was Gary
I said: “Do you mean Barry?”
He said: “Yeah”

Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, or Alice in Chains.

Inspiration for this superb album by #Shack

Great hike around Polhill and Shoreham in Kent today.
Home to #SamuelPalmer
It doesn’t have the dramatic landscapes of the Lakes or Dales but it’s a lovely destination and only 20 minutes from home.

So apparently I listened to a lot of #Shack and #Squid this year…

Lee Harris’ metronomic precision on this track. Top drawer.

Listening to The Ten.
On The Ten.

Just played your vid and for a moment I was back there. Superb indeed!

The tape version of In God We Trust was blank on the other side I recall. I think the label said “This side has been left blank for your own recording purposes”. In reality though, I think IGWT was such a short album it would have been pointless putting it on two sides of a tape 😀

And he raised the pension limit to 67. Robbing bastard.

Blimey if you get a chance to go and see the reformed #shack take it, absolutely phenomenal at Shepherds Bush Empire on Friday #michaelhead

#Shack tonight in their hometown of Liverpool. Only one word to describe it.Joyous!!

Stupendous riff!

Last day in the #EdenValley so packed a fair bit in today. Hiked up to #HighCupNick in the morning and then walked around the Upper Eden in the afternoon. A sprinkling of snow and brilliant clear sunshine helped amplify the sublime views. #WildBoarFell and the #Blencathra range omnivisible.
