Down the corridor, third on the left
We’re gonna show you some films, OK?’

It’s Thursday again and, as the kids say, I’ve got an empty. So #nowplaying loudly is the majestic Bob Marley & the Wailers with ‘Exodus’.

Another album I’ve not played in ages so #nowplaying is ‘Live at the el Mocambo’ by Elvis Costello & the Attractions. Got to fess up that I swapped Bowie ‘Man Who Sold the World’ import with cowboy cover for this as a youth. Teenage foolery.

Well, after another false spring here on the PNW, I figured I’d dig out the seed packets and start propagating. Now, what playlist must be these dreadful beauties be exposed too over the next 60 days to get going? Please send your suggestions.
