There was a wonderful evening of music from Lady Maisery and O'Hooley & Tidow last night at Sheffield's The Leadmill. Their tour celebrating International Women's Day had a brilliant mix of their own songs & beautiful renditions of songs by Kate Bush, Tracy Chapman & Bjork. #folk #gig #IWD

#NowPlaying Billy Bragg- Don't Try This At Home. Had to listen to Accident Waiting To Happen this evening for some sanity with the election results coming through in Germany. #musicsky #vinyl #antifacist

RIP Bill Fay. Time Of The Last Persecution is a masterpiece. I only discovered him whilst queueing for RSD and a guy I was next to in the queue for several hours was singing his praises and the excitement of this reissue. I had to buy it there and then. It's been a favourite since! #musicsky

Eastleigh 3-0 Dagenham & Redbridge. A brilliant performance again from the spitfires! Controlled the game start to finish. I feel sorry for the ex-Eastleigh players Rutherford and Hill. Dagenham were woeful. #nonleague #football #nationalleague #spitfires

#NowPlaying Wilco - A Ghost Is Born 20th Anniversary 9 LP & 4 CD set. A masterpiece expanded. This is how to do a reissue! Wilco deserve another Grammy for the care that's gone into this. 🎶🎶 #musicsky #wilco

Eastleigh 2-0 Aldershot. Comfortable and much needed win against fellow Hampshire rivals. Hoping we can push on to end the season well. Aldershot were awful and had very little threat. You can see why they will be battling to stay up. #nationalleague #football #nonleague

Our cats have been meeting new neighbours who moved in behind us this week. Some tense moments in our garden... Pepper is conflict averse so just watched from inside! 🫣 ❤️ #Caturday #Saturday #pets

Brian Eno - Ambient 1: Music For Airports. This will 100% be in my top 5. It may even be in the top 1. I listen to this almost every day, winding down before going to sleep & I listen to this when reading. I cannot express the importance of its calming influence. #5albums70s3 #NowPlaying #Musicsky

Bob Dylan - Another Self Portrait. I love this bootleg series of Self Portrait / New Morning material. 🎶❤️ #musicsky #NowPlaying

Someone didn't see James Beattie play then. It was his trademark style at penalty kicks. Although it has been about 20 years since he left Southampton 😬 #FACup #Football #southampton #stoke #everton www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

#NowPlaying Smog - Knock Knock. One of Bill Callahan's finest albums. I return to his music again and again. And as a cat owner, the artwork is a favourite in our household. #musicsky #vinyl #caturday

@fieldmusicmusic.bsky.social were brilliant tonight at @concorde2.bsky.social in Brighton. Well worth the trip over from Southampton this evening, including a mention of the West Quay shopping centre (no funfair though! 😂).

#NowPlaying Bonnie 'Prince' Billy - The Purple Bird. This new album from Will Oldham is full of his trademark beautiful songwriting. An outstanding LP release this early into 2025 can only be a good thing. 🎶🎶 #musicsky

#NowPlaying John Lennon - Imagine. A classic that will be in my top 5. This LP and Plastic Ono Band are by miles his finest solo albums. #5albums70s2 #Musicsky #thebeatles #fab4

Release day for Mogwai's The Bad Fire LP. Cannot wait to get stuck into this album! 🎶 #musicsky #postrock #nowplaying

My Bob Dylan album ranking has become my most liked Substack so far. Hopefully that means it's not too contentious, although some comments have described it as "audacious", "surprising", "occasionally odd" and led one person to "almost choke"! Enjoy! 94matthewingate.substack.com/p/1941-bob-d...

"Do all these musicians Have a social conscience? Well, only in their front rooms But I am the dice man And I take a chance man Do you take a chance, huh? They stay with the masses Don't take any chances End up emptying ashtrays" The Fall - Dragnet #5albums70s2 🎶🎶

It is so unjust for Tamworth having to play out extra time against Tottenham. They deserve a replay and a big payday. I wish they could bring back the replay now Klopp has buggered off after crying about them for years. #FAcup #football

#NowPlaying Ringo Starr - Look Up. Ringo goes country with a fine album. It's just a pleasure to hear him enjoying recording new music. Listening to this has inadvertently resulted in Act Naturally becoming my earworm for the past 24 hours! #TheBeatles #Musicsky #country #Ringo #vinyl

#NowPlaying Paul McCartney - McCartney 1970's McCartney/Wings is my most listened to period of music by far. The Get Back film was my favourite bit of tv from this decade, partly due to several of the songs from this album making an appearance. #5albums70s1 #musicsky #vinyl #weekend #getback

I'm amazed my football team Eastleigh FC have announced £99 season tickets for the 25/26 season. Below is a wonderful letter from the chairman Stuart Donald vowing to keep football affordable for fans. eastleighfc.com/2025/01/an-o... #football #nationalleague

The #5albums70s1 round seems an impossible choice to narrow down to 5 LPs. One thing I'm sure about is Bob Dylan's Blood On The Tracks being in my top 5. #NowPlaying #musicsky
