I wonder sometimes what would've happened if #BrianWilson had worked with the Prophet Isiah or the Book of Psalms as his lyricist, and G.F. #Handel had been left to write about fast cars, teenage romance, and surfing. Who, truly, captured the heavens in harmony? RIP Brian. youtu.be/VS4sKZMkJOQ?...

Awright! I made a Friesh Thing - well-kent, ah hawp, but aye worth getting in th'kin, innit? Sadly I can't do justice to #JohnMartyn 's iconic Glaswegian mumble. Wrangling the audio/video for this four-piece vid was a huge headache. I hope it was worth it! #MusicianSky #MusicSky #IndieFolk #Music

I'm sure a few folks on #MusicSky know the joy of recovering access to masters you once thought lost. But 18 years later? I doubt many of the #indiemusic crowd are that old. But I am! I'm looking (& listening) backward to past chapters, and forward to future ones. www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/tqia7...

I'm not sure why I'm suddenly so popular here…but hi & welcome! I'll try to offer content worthy of your feed: this is my "peacetime" social media. I try to leave my vicious politicized snark (some might prefer that) on the birdsite, now my "wartime" site. Here's a song new to #BlueSky/ #MusicSky.

I saw this news item, then Ms. Öztürk's name, and a photo of a woman in a headscarf. I rejoiced. I wondered what vile dictatorship we negotiated her release from—until I saw. In my day, the USA were the ones negotiating for this wonan's freedom. I'm still getting used to seeing them as the jailers.
