Just heard @maryannehobbs.bsky.social playing Lou Reed’s “Berlin” and it took me right back to that Xmas/NY in my early 20s that - due to a family thing - I spent alone, miserable & listening repeatedly to “Berlin” on CD…

… big love for the beautiful, gormless solipsism of youth… 🖤

Hokay. It is midnight. And I might’ve just promised my teenagers that we can watch the finale of Stranger Things when it drops at 1am….

I may have made a terrible mistake …

This Xmas, my wife bought me a big wooden box to store ‘recent LP purchases’.

This has freed up a spare Kallax cube and so I’ve spent a very satisfying afternoon reorganising the jazz / reggae / blues / gospel / ‘world’ / general-weird-shit shelves to give everything a lil’ breathing space …

Finally found time to give The Necks’ new album a proper spin and can confirm it is incredibly good

I (re)watched Twin Peaks S1 / S2 / FWWM earlier this year (watched FWWM but only caught bits & pieces of the first 2 series when they aired…)

After leaving an appropriate amount of time to reflect the 25 year time-gap, I’m now starting to watch Twin Peaks: The Return for the first time….

Spent Saturday morning dashing round in circles

Later this afternoon/evening I’m heading a record fair in the arts centre at the end of my road

And now? Well we’ve emphatically reached the ‘sitting on my arse, drinking coffee, listening to the radio’ interlude part of the day…

Man … I go into every weekend hungry for new cultural experiences… and every weekend I end up watching some film I have seen many, many times before….

Tonight?

Die Hard 4.0

Underrated classic of the genre

And as if conjured by the very words ‘record-nerd content’ themselves, the new opus by The Necks has just dropped thro’ my letterbox

Conscious I don’t post here very often… going to try and remedy that by upping the record-nerd content…

This was released a couple of weeks ago on Soundway (who were doing a really neat/good value ‘bundle’ offer on their Bandcamp page)

It is absolutely sublime

I wrote something for Rapper’s Delight’s 45th anniversary but got distracted and didn’t publish it until a few months back, so here it is again if you missed it… rentparty.substack.com/p/chapter-24...

Episode 5 of Alien: Earth was incredible. No notes
… four episodes in and Alien: Earth is so, so good…

I don’t want to be too shrill about this but I think the BBC, ITV and Sky have disgraced themselves in their coverage of the anti-refugee protests. A massive failure of judgement. But now we know the next time a progressive protest “isn’t news” that it’s nothing to do with numbers

Just verified my age on BlueSky by holding a chicken in the air and sticking a deckchair up my nose

Oh man…

RIP Ozzy 💔

I love you sweet leaf…

Used to do ‘a thing’ on Tw*tt*er where I’d drunkenly watch old Top of the Tops episodes and compare ‘veteran’ artists at the time with my current age….

Think I might’ve just hit the motherlode.

I am nearly half a century old and I can’t believe that I was completely unaware that one of Tiffany’s early singles was a cover of the Beatles “I Saw Her Standing There”….

Every day. Is. A fucking school day.

Here's where we are for doors opening tomorrow.

An excellent day for anyone wanting to flesh out their Underworld collection (why wouldn't you be looking to do this?) and of course, the (how can it actually be 11 years?
