Kooks (Sound of the 70s Bob Harris)

This version was recorded for his pal Bob Harris. Song written as a note to his newborn son about growing up and being yourself and not worrying about what society tells you be. I'll raise a glass to that 🍻

RIP Steve Cropper - we'll be rightly remembering all those Stax classics that he wrote and performed on, but let's not forget he also produced and mixed some amazing tunes for Ned Doheny, including this absolutely beauty

#MusicHistory On this day, 1965, The Beatles released their brilliant 6th album, Rubber Soul. This diverse record showcased the band utilizing a mix of genres, including folk rock & soul. It was the 1st Beatles album that omitted the band's name on the cover. They were so famous, it wasn't needed.

Bowie swinging in the 60s. Sounds a bit like The Who. I remember I got this on a free cd with a magazine. Think it was Mojo or Uncut

"I need to by myself, I can't be no one else" an opening line that was a mantra for the rest of the 90s. Oasis turned my life upside down when I was 12 and set out the path for the rest of my life, as it did for so many others. Greatest💚
