I’ll plan to incorporate my first listening session while on a southbound road trip in early April. The drive will take us through Atlantic 🇨🇦, New England, Appalachia and down into the 🇺🇸 Deep South.

As this is my preferred way to enjoy music then I'm even more keen to hear the new record. I love an album that really needs to be listened to in it's entirety. I'm not much of a one for playlists, although I did enjoy creating a mixtape back in the day, even better receiving one.

I’ve always liked Gil Scott-Heron’s listening advice:

That's a bit specific for me. I bit too much like a set of orders.

Along the lines of Lou Reed's Berlin album?

After an hour lying on the floor I'll need Mrs@gordimhor to get me back up

The excitement is building…

Unfortunately Mike, I am at an age, if I lie on my back, in a dark room with my eyes closed, I’d be asleep in 5 minutes, it wouldn’t matter what I was listening to.

40 years ago 😉 Your live performance on The Tube of A Girl Called Johnny & Savage Earth Heart is really, really good. The musicianship is excellent and the sound quality isn't bad at all.

Good music never ages.

The first Waterboys album was something of a masterpiece.

Well well I dutifully watched almost every episode of the Tube and that is the best effin’ rock performance there ever was 🫡

Thankyou!

Without looking back and with barely a word, if he dropped a note, I never heard.
