Thirty Days of Music, Day One

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave to me… A rehash of something I did nearly six years ago when the pandemic was in full flow. So this is an idea that I had ages ago and I figured now is a good time to deploy it. When we were stuck indoorsContinue reading “Thirty Days of Music, Day One”

Entry #53 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: November 2025 (a.k.a Catching worms)

Bit early isn’t it? You see, there’s been a change of plans. Normally, I’d have this up and ready by the end of the month, or slightly into December depending on how busy/lazy how I am. But this week I’ve delved deeply into a certain something and I don’t want to make another super longContinue reading “Entry #53 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: November 2025 (a.k.a Catching worms)”

Entry #52 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: October 2025 (a.k.a A Musical Odyssey)

Strap in because I’ve had a very productive month and I’ve listened to a lot of music. It all started fairly innocuously as I accidentally ended up with a theme.

Right now, I do a show called Beautiful Ones, broadcasting an hour of Britpop every Saturday midday, but as of late I’ve also foundContinue reading “Entry #51 – What I’ve Been Listening To Lately: August and September 2025 (a.k.a Hold your nose, take the plunge…)”

Entry #50 – Standing on the Shoulder of Giants – Revisited, re-evaluated, and rebuilt (a.k.a Coming full circle)

Well, well. Exactly five years since the first real entry, I’m back where it all began – reviewing Standing on the Shoulder of Giants. The black sheep of Oasis albums, the one that is as marmite as they come, and the one that I actually have tried to re-review twice since the initial entry. IContinue reading “Entry #50 – Standing on the Shoulder of Giants – Revisited, re-evaluated, and rebuilt (a.k.a Coming full circle)”
