Listening to “Fantastic Voyage”
New sounds for the European canon 1977 - 1981
This takes it’s starting point as Bowie’s Berlin trilogy and introduces the sounds that both influenced him and the music that he himself influenced
Curated by Bob Stanley/ Jason Wood

Listening to The Allman Brothers Band
“Brothers and Sisters”

Listening to Pete Townsend
“White City”

Just picked up another Stanley/Wiggs curated compilation

Late 60s early 70s selection of cuts from the well known and not so well known
Absolute treasures these comps

Listening to Joni’s “Blue”
These are my favourite Joni records, what are yours ?

High as a kite, if you want to

Speeding through the universe
Thinking is the best way to travel....'

Just finished Larry McMurtry’s “The Last Picture Show” top drawer,I’ll be rewatching the movie next week

Listening to Leonard Cohen
His eighth album from 1988
“I’m your Man”
An ultramodern jump in production for Cohen back then which strands the sound of the record firmly in the 80s, but the songs are fabulous and timeless

Listening to Eric Clapton
“There’s One In Every Crowd”
His third solo album from 1975

Listening to Pere Ubu & Sarah Jane Morris

Not familiar with Died Pretty but this “Doughboy Hollow” album sounds like it could be a grower
