Diamond Geezers Are Forever
"in our arts we find our bliss/I have mine, and he has his"
His own songs are incredible but his cover versions are some of the greatest (At Last I Am Free)
Fantastic choice (and the RW version is better than the EC version, even though that's also brilliant)
Anna Mognani surely
Oh it's got much more mixed up since 😀
£60 each if you have them separately
A key record for the early teen me, a shift from ELO to something that felt much more dangerous
It's almost surprisingly good considering how much churn they had in their line up immediately before (Denny and Hutchings both leaving) and following up the classic L&L
And a long one but powerful one for my Token 2
Sloth by Fairport Convention
A strong theme this week Cat and Kitty.
My Token 1 is for the Isley Brothers and Harvest for the World
Ticket booked, looks brilliant
That was one of the first records I ever bought with my own money. Probably from Woolworths
Happy 100th birthday to Norfolk Wildlife Trust. I'll be popping down to the Book Hive to pick up a copy of the book this weekend and visiting this wonderful place

Mac wasn't exactly illuminated even if you were nearer
Not around much in March so just in case I miss one I'm going to bank these now ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Saw this yesterday. 27 February.
Great set though I'm now humming Pere Ubu, Betty Boo to the tune of Beloved's Hello
Record shop expands after defying predictions it 'wouldn't last six months'
Thank you
Hey man, at Woodstock everyone is your friend
And For What It's Worth, here's Buffalo Springfield for my Token 2
Hi Still Honest and Kitty. You're not the only one who can do a late change of mind. Was going to go The Who for my Token 1 but instead, here's Bowie with I Can't Explain
I've just done a Toppermost on Doves
Love this one
😂

Hendrix jamming in a small London club c1967
Bowie Ziggy Stardust tour
Any early Two Tone show
REM as Bingo Hand Job
Pulp at Glastonbury
Ooh yes, I'd overlooked that one and it should be a contender. Saw JAPW last year and she's getting better still
Outside of their records and their shows I don't really think about musicians much but I often wonder how Howard Devoto is spending his day
