#1C000LEST Day 31 “When I got back there, they wouldn't let me in. Said I had to have a special pass.” 20 LE FREAK by CHIC (1978) Their novelty record (complimentary). No idea how to do Le Freak, but the bassline ensures the song endures. m.youtube.com/watch?v=aXgS...

Hey everyone, why not make my day a little brighter by RTing this, reading the article, going to Obverse and buying the book, reading the book, becoming a lifelong fan of my writing, paying me £1m to pay off my mortgage and write more? It's a small ask. dalesmithonline.com/get-asked-wr...

The Alarm were the first band I ever saw live, a proper rock thrill that somehow merged spiritual sincerity and solidarity with a punk ethos. Mike Peter’s said that night that they were going to play a very long time: that night and in the long term, despite those health issues, he was right. RIP.
