Vinyl collector - especially 7” singles, meditator, member of Triratna Buddhist Order. Seem to have developed a thing for vintage paperbacks. Low woo threshold, likes an evidence base.

Seems a lot of it about - my daughter was coughing so long and hard she’s done one of her intercostals in.
Hope you’re in the mend pronto.

That’s a good point.
It’s really helped me to appreciate a whole bunch of stuff I never really ‘got’. It’s funny how understanding the context of a piece of music can help you (well, me) to enjoy it more.

As a teen they were a bit too ‘nice’ for my taste, but I got into them through Neil Young - and my taste broadening as I matured.

Was that the same year they played Glastonbury ?
I saw them at the Royal Albert Hall on that tour, and it was a bit disappointing actually - mostly because the RAH, although iconic, isn’t a great venue for that kind of thing if you’re not on the ground.

And they meant that as a criticism?
Those are the some of the best things about it.

Ah, there’s a similar story about someone experimenting with ether in the C19th and experiencing a revelation.
After multiple attempts to record the insight, they finally scrawled a note before passing out.
On waking they eventually deciphered ‘there is an all pervading smell of petroleum spirit.’

Ah! Thanks - that makes sense.
I’d still like a copy anyway.
