He fabulously used to say that his band was “training” as opposed to “rehearsing”. I had this great mental picture of them all ka-chinging away whilst stretching and jogging on the spot. Not unlike the Specials stage show, actually!

Now I find it quite tedious.
Anyone remember Glasgow reggae band ” man at the window”?

Where the hell is Babylon?

I also love proper 60′s sould but despise it from the 70′s onwards. Dunno why.

Especially dub – but that could be related to the neighbour below me in my old place playing it all the time at volume. The fucking wigga.

That’s not to label the entire genre shit though, just not my kink.

However, this may be because it became girly-fied and shite then. Apart from Musical Youth and UB40.

However, lets talk about music.

I know I shouldnt ,but I have a love of old” crooner” songs,slow,lush orchestration, often strangely – yet masterfully – constructed,somehow timeless ; “moon river “.is probably the pinnacle of their evolutionary tree.

I hate the mc5 and the stooges though my mind tells me they are the sort of thing I should like
.To me they also sound like the musical equivalent of mechanically recovered meat .

split daddyo ! Does ” king of the swingers” from “The Jungle Book ” count as jazz?

Anything banjo driven can’t be bad.
