A storied career... According to Wikipedia, "Maskelyne's invention of the door lock for London toilets required the insertion of a penny coin to operate it, leading to the euphemism to "spend a penny"."

‘A Plateau, A Forest’ was made well before I read the story of Jonathan’s @assistant.bandcamp.com southern Italy tour in his ‘In the April Sun’ fanzine, but when I did read it I thought this tune could have been a soundtrack to driving towards the Puglia shoreline, if that’s not too pretentious…

As promised… the next release coming Friday Oct 10 will be an EP featuring title track ‘A Plateau, A Forest’, the last to be taken from the ‘You Still Believe In Me’ album. Two previously unreleased tracks will accompany it: Regular listeners will know will be a remix… More on these midweek…

There's some new music on the way from Never the Bridle. Here's a clip of the cheerily titled 'Death is a closed door'.

Perry’s beautiful compositions are an absolute must for anyone into ethereal dream pop and shoegaze with a healthy touch of ambience. Also check out his gorgeous Defender Waves CD on @plentywenlock.bsky.social Wonderful music deserving of your ears!

Geneva Drive @genevadrive3.bsky.social · 8d

I have a few things on here if anyone fancies a listen. All made during many a sleepless night on old gear. It's free or you can buy if you like for Bandcamp Friday. Cheers.

For #BandcampFriday I've pulled out a Honeybourne album from 1993 - ten songs of love, hate and desperation. Pay what you feel it deserves.

Having last seen these three together onstage at the Nite Club above the Playhouse in I think February 1981, I’d still be jumping around I think…

Next up from Slow Country will be final single from ‘You Still Believe In Me’ backed with two previously unreleased tracks, coming Oct 10. Thanks to all for support. A few irons in the fire for next steps after this… As things stand, next 2 albums already recorded… but maybe some surprises in store…

There’s something really good about this, Jonathan, definitely a song in there.

Slow Country @slowcountry.bsky.social · 16d

DC were a two-genius band... And also hugely impressive live.
