IMHO: They work, then they suddenly 'bomb out'. You switch to something else. It doesn't work at all. Try something else, it works...a bit. For a while. Side effects. Weight gain. Libido failure or overdrive. CBT and psychotherapy alongside exercise and nutrition have worked for me. But the...

Neil Young. Hammersmith. tomorrow.

I guess the vocal firepower will be announced soon. Sharon Robinson? Anjani? Sharon was supposed to have released her album, but no sign of it yet. Will Anjani do a 'Blue Alert' set as support? I just hope I can get a ticket to one of the shows. I can't face Benicassim or (rumoured)...

I'm glad you had a good night! There's something about a triple bill of new music for under £20 that makes it worth a punt in my view. I saw Eels last night, and the 'special guests' printed on the ticket turned out to be a BBC documentary on E which I'd seen several times before. A bit of a...

No, the 'nightmare' for Big Music and Recording Artists is just beginning. As wireless enabled gadgets become ubiquitous, the costs of policy any such regime devour all the 'savings' from attempting to control illicit consumer behaviour. There'll always be a niche market for luxury packaged...

Well: It's been a long time. He's 74. It just seems too good to be true. Did you like 'Blue Alert' by Anjani? I think it's one of his best albums. 'Thanks for the Dance' is immortal. PS: you mentioned 11/3 when you started this thread. I just noticed. Must get reading glasses. Things are...

Just wondering. Did you enjoy it? Did my post make sense, re: J Marr? Or did I just take too many mushrooms that night! Kind regards

Just got back from show in Brum at newly renovated Town Hall. Awesome venue. Bizarre show. 'Eels with Strings'....without the strings! And with excerpts from his Autobiography read out by The Chet. Then it got really weird with E and The Chet swapping from piano to drums and back again. E did...

Dates will be announced on the Leonard Cohen Files forum on 11th March. Is this REALLY happening?!

Tricky....Portishead......Jane Birkin.....

Check out 'Seydou' as a prelude to the show. Live, there's no 'balafon': The 'wooden glockenspiel' sound you hear on the link below: It's all just bizarre repeating guitar arpeggios. I was a bit stoned, I must admit, but even now, I still can hear 'The Hand That Rocks The Cradle' / 'Reel...

The running order changes every night, at random. So, get there early: Don't miss Salif! I'd be really interested in what you think of my 'comparison' with Johnny Marr: Just close your eyes and hear that massive interplay of subtle, repeating arpeggios It really did remind me of the first...

If it's going to be a 'very special release' then it will have to compete with a product like 'In A Frozen Sea', which I've mentioned before on this site. Some Artists really know how to cultivate their hard-core Audience with respect and gratitude. Imagine if Morrissey were to be invited to...

Any music that 'temporarily' releases me from the ordeal of my mind into the libidinous pleasures of the body makes me happy, if it's the soundtrack to some serious shagging. Moroder. Barry White. Marvin Gaye. Anjani. Sade. Candles. Incense. etc:horny:

I can't stand the synthetic production values on her 80's stuff, but yes, there's a few gems. I've only given Shine a few listens. I wasn't blown away. It seems a bitter 'swan-song'. Hope Morrrissey doesn't leave that way.
