St Agnes Fountain are about to tour for their 25th year, they are celebrating their Silver Anniversary!

There are many dates at lots of different venues, and tickets are now being sold for Lowdham Village Hall in North Nottinghamshire, 18th December 2026.

If you’re interested in this date please contact me here..

Just booked, Art Garfunkel, 9 November, ACL Live!

I missed his show in nearby San Antonio last summer, but this date in my own town caught me completely by surprise. I'm very pleased to have this, presumably final, opportunity to see him.

Just discovered, Pete Townshend has dropped out of Eric Clapton's Crossroads Guitar Festival in three weeks at the Moody Center ATX. I bought tickets for both nights, primarily to see Pete. There's still a lot for me, but I'm not sure I would have booked both shows but for Pete's involvement. (Memo to Eric - can you reach out to Jimmy Page?)

I'm in!

Oh, I'd missed that this included The Vetch show.  I'm moderately tempted....

Coming October 30, The Who By Numbers Super Deluxe!

This is the great lost Who album, and the last in my opinion that completely lacks filler. The Super Deluxe edition will include the Who's 1976 show at Swansea and the first official DVD release of a live U.S. show from Pontiac, Michigan in 1975, plus demos and studio outtakes.

'With'  the exception dammit.

Back to the folk music on this week's Off The Beaten Tracks with two numbers from Findlay Napier's latest album titled Outsider. Also on the playlist are...

Billy Bragg & Wilco, Patsy Matheson, Reg Meuross, Alice Allen & Patsy Reid, Equation, Damien O'Kane, Kris Drever, GNOSS, Darwin Song Project feat Jez Lowe, Iona Lane, Belshazzar's Feast and Moll Baxter

Tune in at 8pm on https://www.internet-radio.com/station/gingerfeatherfm/

The  new 6CD boxed set of Kevin Ayers  

This covers the period 1974-80.   Even hard core fans would say  this is not his prime era, city the exception of course if Confessions of Dr Dream.

As a long time lover of his music,  I find this an absorbing listen. Even if  Yes we have No Manyanas, Rainbow Takeaway  and that's What you Get Babe aren't up there with Joy of a Toy, they're still worth hearing.
The set is bulked out with radio sessions and live stuff.
