Rebecca Barnard, great pop vocalist. This band should have done better than it did.

That’s a frickin outstanding record.

Been listening to a lot of Maceo Plex, not sure if he's been previously mentioned in this thread but if you enjoy some cool rhythms as I do then worth a listen.

One of my favourite tunes of his:

No, but Maceo Parker's new album is good?

Anyway, lockdown 2 Electric Boogaloo is sorted ...


Turns out for dilettantes like me this is a slightly weird book. It’s a gig book, so the B♭ one is just transcriptions from concert pitch, no allowances for what keys are convenient for B♭ instruments. It’s not a student playalong book. Like, I thought cool I’ll look up Take Five, that would be fun to play but because the original was an alto sax piece - an E♭ instrument - the B♭ transcription is in F minor (4 flats, for those keeping score at home) so basically unplayable for me. Still, it’s got the heads of hundreds of great jazz tunes and the chord progressions to go with them So I can try and figure out some solos. Many hours of fun to be had with this.

Ok hoj

Saw jimi the human hocking many times in my youth, one performance down at Cowes on Philip island in the old "isle of wight" before the jewish stocktake when he just blew the crowd away. back when josie jason was playing along side him before she started the argonauts.

Some retros, but still applicable...





for our beloved club




a dash of Wings





"I'm not expecting to grow flowers in a desert, but I can live and breathe and see the sun in Winter time" RIP Stuart Adamson.





a dash of a dashing Ray Davies




I freaking adore, ADORE this man.





Did I say how much I adore this man?

Another sad passing this year....not sure if it's been mentioned (apologies if it has).....

Talented guitarist, David Roback, passed away from cancer in February. He's best known for his work with Hope Sandoval in Mazzy Star, but was also a driving force in some other quality bands, namely the pre-Mazzy Star incarnation, Opal, influential Paisley Underground band, The Rain Parade, and indie 'supergroup' of sorts, Rainy Day.

The man did good work and will be missed. Vale.










Vocals by Susanna Hoffs (from the Bangles)....

Yeh, some good stuff there from our youth Mutts. Shame you-tube not around in those days for local bands to get some international exposure.
