Got a message out of the blue to see if I was up for meeting with some old school friends today. Hadn't seen them for nearly 40 years. I was a bit apprehensive. Wasn't sure if we'd still get along, but it was magic and a reminder of why we were thick as thieves back then.

Here's to good friends 🙏🥃x

I'm a very slow reader, but this year I've read more books than ever, with these by @graemethomson.bsky.social and @johnharris1969.bsky.social being two of my favourites.

Highly recommended if you haven't read them and well worth popping in the Christmas stocking of any music fan you love x

Many thanks once again to those continue to follow this series. It's been greatly appreciated.

With just a few to go, I continue by raising the question - Is a lack of originality strangling modern music?

Soundtracking the morning with another contender for #5debutalbums7074.

Such an incredible voice. This would be a worthy contender for the magnificent 'Les Fleur' alone, but as an album its so much more than that.

Tonight's whisky pairing...

Raw, visceral and filled with so many markers to where she was headed sonically. Hugely underrated on release imho. As essential as anything she's released to my ears x

Happy Cairanne for £4.99 at Aldi day to all who celebrate!!

Seems like they're restricting it to two per customer this year. Fortunately Mrs LK was with me

Kicking off the day with some early thoughts for the next of @richards7370.bsky.social's polls.

Can't imagine imagine any scenario in which these wont appear in my selections for #5debutalbums7074 🙏x

Thanks again to anyone who's continued to keep pace with this series. It's hugely appreciated.

Continuing with an assertion: We all need a musical hero. It's a universal truth...

Woah! Just in case you missed the news.

Tonight 9:45 pm on @talkingpicturestv.bsky.social. 'Night Of The Demon' an all time classic.

Can also recommend catching the recent episode of @johnnyrestall.bsky.social's excellent podcast on the topic after watching it too.

Marvellous 🙏x
