Al Stewart, on the other hand, is a lifelong (well, for over 40 years anyway) favourite of mine.


Well that makes (at least) two of us..... Wink
Make That three.



Four (actually, make that five!).

 It was the - unsuccessful - Lori, Don't Go Right Now single that got me interested and its parent album, Russians & Americans, that made me a fan. Not the most obvious entry point but I still love that album.



Yes, not the strongest of his albums,  but it has its moments.  


It's one of my favourites but then, it was my introduction to Al's music. Has to be the UK edition though. The US one dropped Lori, Don't Go Right Now and Rumours Of War for a couple of tunes I don't like quite as much.

Brecon Jazz Festival this weekend.

Jazz isn't my thing but there are a lot of excellent bands/performers playing a variety of styles of music at fringe events around the town so it should be a fun weekend.

For whatever reason, I can't turn the festival programme into a blue clicky but it can be found on the Brecon Town Of Music facebook page, if anybody wants to take a look:

From the desk of Mr. Stephen Foster:

Back on Hospital Radio Ipswich and ICR FM tonight with the Monday Music Mix. https://www.ipswichcommunityradio.com/show/hri-live/

My guests are Helen Mulley and Shane Kirk from Helen and The Neighbourhood Dogs. Hear them at 8-30pm and 9-30pm in a two part interview celebrating the release of the band’s new mini album.

All from 8 this evening on Ipswich’s longest running radio stations - you know it makes sense.


In case you’d prefer to listen to me than read me. https://on.soundcloud.com/cOdAqqMW0YSTaVqamQ

Currently listening to 'Anything That Moves' - the brand new CD from Helen and the Neighbourhood Dogs, which popped through my letterbox today. Very nice, too. It came with a hand written thank you card. Good customer service, Shane!


Thank you Mick - we aim to please.  Smiley

Just a reminder that any 'weird brews' will have to be drunk, by the brewer, well in advance and witnessed by a Glo-Ball.

If no intestinal distress caused, it can be served.

Thanks Andy. I discovered in a corner of the attic that I do have something much like those, so will make sure to pack them in with the tent.
