Whenever we lose a musical giant, you can rely on Jo Whiley to strike the perfect note in a tribute. As she’s doing now for Mani, on Radio 2.

#Pompey's Australian experiment has yet to come off - primarily due to injury rather than ability concerns. The quartet have missed a staggering amount of games. Extremely frustrating.

Excellent edition of @stereounderground.bsky.social with @richardlatto.bsky.social celebrating 50 years since the first #SexPistols gig - I am not sure I'd ever heard their Substitute cover.

#Pompey fans... for an upcoming prog column, what's your tenuous link to a past or present PFC player? Deliver beer to Billy Wilson's pub? Look after Luke Nightingale's dad's goldfish? (2nd one was a tale once told!). The slimmer the link, the better!

On this Sunday last year, Johnnie Walker's final radio programme was broadcast as he bowed out of Sounds of the 70s amid failing health. Sadly, of course, he passed away two months later. This is the piece I wrote about that emotional final show - www.sussexexpress.co.uk/news/people/...
Farewell Johnnie Walker – a little bit of our radio light has gone out
It's almost dark outside. 5pm Sunday teatime and it's almost dark outside. And that seems appropriate, because a little bit of light has just disappeared for many, many radio listeners.
