A visionary admixture of Joy Division and Hank Williams, American Music Club’s ‘Everclear’ is all killer hooks, painful punchlines and senseless loss. The single most poignant chronicle of the Bay Area during the height of the AIDS epidemic. A history that feels nearly forgotten.
@boscobel19751 @_Traviata There was a time not that long ago when every busker in Europe seemed to be playing Comfortably Numb as I walked past.
The swifts are returning, hurrah! (this extraordinary photo is by @CarlBovisNature) and I want to recommend two riveting swift-obsessed accounts, run by swift-fans who have encrusted their houses with swift-boxes equipped with swift-cams: @MarkSmyth1960 and @pilts1974
@boscobel19751 'Such A Small Love,' about the funeral of a friend has some of his most moving lyrics.
I had same experience with this. The orchestral arrangements were bewildering to begin with. But my God - Montague Terrace (in Blue), Plastic Palace People. Life changing/affirming. That treacly gorgeous voice. The intimation of a tradition that had nothing to do with America.

And, of course.
As a dog owner, barely a day goes by that I don't think about this perfect Gary Larson cartoon and how "Hey!" is the absolute 'mot juste de funny'. No other word would work quite so well. Don't try.

Did you buy the biscuits and bisto especially so as to make this picture? (I hope so).
Recommend this brilliant book about this brilliant bird.
If you didn't see it when it was on Disney + BBC2 are showing Dopesick from tonight. I cannot recommend it too highly. Utterly compelling docudrama from start to finish. I shall probably watch it again.

Why is The Independent online so appallingly impossible to read? What is their plan here? Are we really going to be well disposed to these ads every two sentences? It’s like being cornered in a pub by a finger jabbing bore. Last time I follow a link to these bums.

@boscobel19751 A shadow of their former selves…
There was at 6pm today a ten-minute interlude of bright, sharp and aqueous light before the rain started again. Naturally I did not have my phone so I could not record the moment.
I will never confuse The Peddlers with The Settlers ever again. Also: surely, there’s at least one rug in action here.
From 1971 The Settlers with their biggest chart success The Lightning Tree (Theme from Follyfoot)
@boscobel19751 Montague Terrace (in Blue) is one of my very favourite songs, and I still can't believe it isn't a real street in London.
@MichaelDaly64 @boscobel19751 I missed out on that, mostly because I was still flying the flag for post-punk and regarded almost everything else as counter-revolutionary!
@Paytress @boscobel19751 I knew, & loved, The Walker Brothers hits. I bought 'Fire Escape In The Sky' because I am a massive Cope/Teardrops fan. It changed my life in a similar way to my first Velvet Underground LP.
@boscobel19751 @_Traviata There was a time not that long ago when every busker in Europe seemed to be playing Comfortably Numb as I walked past.
@boscobel19751 Despite enjoying Walker hits as a kid in the 60s, it took the incredible Boy Child comp before everything clicked with me too. The original - with The Plague as the opener and Marc Almond’s sleeve-notes. The desert island disc, no question.
