Interesting to see that Jackson Five did a version of Third. I must seek that out 😆.

I know, I know!!
And that book was an interesting read 😀.

Which ones do you have?

Kenneth Ansell was the editor, and then each issue had a variety of contributors. I'll find my copies and have a look.
I took the photo a couple of years ago before I moved house. I'm still finding things!

Nice! I don't have that one - and last time I checked for back issues on eBay they were a tad expensive!

I certainly do 😀.

I've got the original score for that. But keep it quiet.

Excellent!
I don't have the LP, but I do have it on CD as part of the "Out of Cold Storage' box that ReR released a feed years back.

Looks like being the best attended gig that I've been to for a long time!

I follow 101 people at the moment, and I have trouble keeping up with that!
I think following 480,000 people will take quite some doing - even for alien bots. I'd have to have a lie down - not that there would be time to do that.

I had lunch with a friend at Canterbury Garden Centre.
She misread "Sticky" as "Stiffy" which caused a fair degree of tittering.

😆. Just the usual porridge today!
Arthur Negus, a fixture of Sunday teatime telly in the late 60s. Waxing lyrically about antiques that were even older than him.
Those were the days 😆.

"Arthur Negus and his Cabriole Legs" sounds like it should be a band 😆.

Andy, do you remember "Going For A Song" on TV, featuring Arthur Negus and his Cabriole Legs? The theme tune was "Gli Uccelli" (aka The Birds"), by Respighi.
comment in response to
post
Excellent! I have a box set of Respighi. First heard his work in the early 1980s - Radio Three playing his "Roman" pieces.
Lovely stuff.

Kew. Rhone. Is on my shelf too! I have the other book mentioned in that review, The Book Of Leviathan, published by Sort Of Books. But I don't have his Milk book - I think I should get that. Stand by!

I have this 😀.
Big fan of Peter Blegvad - his writing, his drawings, and his music.

Oh this is rather good!!
Instant purchase - Sid you got me to open my wallet again 😆.

Mine is a bit battered these days, mainly because, along with three LPs and the booklet, it also contains various press clippings and a Soft Works tour programme signed by Hugh.
I listened to this so much over the years.

I think I paid 99p for my Nice Enough LP. My third favourite sampler.

I have five or six ISB LPs from back in the day. None on CD yet. Those early LPs are fab!

That's good to hear. To be able to be creative, and do what you really enjoy is brilliant 😀.

That's definitely the right time for that 😆.
May I offer a little light music to help pass the time?

Oh, always 😀.
Listened to his Guitar Solos LP last week. Might dig out the Prague and Washington LP he did with Chris Cutler next.

I am thank you 😀. Getting used to now being a proper pensioner - my sons have been pulling my leg about that! Where did the time go?
But I have festivals to go to, lots of walking in the rain, and old/new music to discover, so all is good 😀.
How are you keeping - busy I guess?

Morning Andy - have a great day 😀.
Getting my music fix first, then heading to the gym as part of my effort to keep fit - but it's a bit like Cnut and the incoming tide 😆.

Petrichor - that's a great word - the smell of the ground after rain 😀.
To be honest, we've had rather a lot of it here this week.

Yup, got a good return on that 😉.

Seeing RTF on OGWT in 1976 was fab! Went and bought Romantic Warrior as soon as I could afterwards (probably next day, as I worked a short distance from the little Virgin shop above Shelly's Shoes in London).

Herne Bay? My grandma lived in a house, facing the sea, in Western Esplanade - probably not far from where that photo was taken!. We'd visit her in the 1960s when I was very young. No beach huts then.

And that thing where duvet covers capture everything else the wash, like a blue whale lunge-feeding on krill. Every time!

Definitely right. 16 times right!

Captain Beefheart at The Venue for me.
And the reason I picked that one is because I actually went to it 😀. The only time I ever saw Beefheart live.

I remember seeing them on some BBC music programme in the early 1990s. They really caught my attention - not something I would normally have gravitated towards. Bought their CD soon afterwards.

Hi Andy - I bought this LP in 1984 and thought it was fab. I've not listened for many years, so it's going on my turntable in the morning.
The remainder of tomorrow will be dedicated to Soft Machine.

Just heard the sad news.
I never saw him play, but I did stand next to him at Hugh Hopper's funeral.
Such a great composer and musician.

Ah, so it is! Whoever put it up confused 10/05/1975 as the 5th September rather than 10th May!

I was there too! Yes, Gryphon, Seals & Crofts, and Ace.
I thought Gryphon were brilliant - seen them many times since. Saw Yes twice more in the 70s.
My ticket 😀
