Happy New Year, Alice, let's hope the second half of the decade is an improvement on the first

Good album.

Hey, Alice,
I can watch Digging in little bits on my fb here in the US, and am a big fan. Fascinating!

artly137.bsky.social•55 days ago

She’s been on heavy rotation for me. Kim and the new Cure album.

royliving.bsky.social•55 days ago

Your energy and enthusiasm are really something special.

mmchol.bsky.social•55 days ago

You can never go wrong with Kim Deal.

She released Are You Mine a couple of years ago.
It's about the time when are was caring for her mother, who was deep into dementia.

When the song came out, I my grandmother was, too.

It hit so hard. I bought the LP and I think I listened 5 times in a row. I miss her.

cool vinyl… just listened to song of her’s on YouTube… fan of female vocals, love sia, for male interpretation… my friend loves his vinyl & drugs… we were at a music festival this year & his record bag had a few things… in his defence he’s had 3 hip surgeries in as many years, significant pain…

& wtf with Sir Elton & his opinion of grass… because he did it all he blames that?… of course that was before today’s more potent stuff… we need it regulated & with regulated dispensaries we can gain societal understanding, peel people off illegal paths & deliver anti-smoking outcomes (only edible)

Love “Digging for Britain”

dj-buzby.bsky.social•55 days ago

Loving all these coloured and clear LPs that are appear on Bluesky. I started looking at ones I have, my first ever was Overkill by Motörhead back in 1979, it is green. That’ll certainly blast out the cobwebs after the New Year festivities when it gets played on the 1st.

As a yank I look forward to reading your work.

Happy 2025 Professor

chimpy-farnsworth.bsky.social•55 days ago

I lived through the vinyl era & had many many albums - which were "borrowed" by my 3 sons. There's a certain nostalgia listening to records now - but it's such a pain in the buttocks having to get up to flip the disc after 15 minutes.
Guess I love sitting more than listening.

stueynilsatis.bsky.social•55 days ago

Nice. What's the book about Alice?

adamskihg.bsky.social•55 days ago

Looking forward to your book!

Good work. ☺️

aliceinpower.bsky.social•55 days ago

I was miffed that half the songs were redone versions of the singles she released in 2019, just cause I prefer the Lofi versions. But all the other songs are Kino
