Charity shops of Chester - sort yourselves out...a literally as new Laughing Lenny complete studio albums box set for £2. Morons...  Similarly here - 16CD boxed set of Mahler's symphonies (and various lieder, which I'm not bothered about...) for £3 - I doubt any of them have been played more than a couple of times. |

Wonderful night at Lytham Festival. Scissor Sisters were great fun though I’m not sure they would fit in before the watershed. Pet Shop Boys were absolutely sensational with their Dreamworld greatest hits show. Two hours of hits, nothing left out, and one of the best video/lights shows I have ever seen. Definitely the best set I have ever seen at Lytham.

Ah, but what you don't see is that, if you remove the price sticker, it reads 'Leonard Cohl' who is a Leonard Cohen tribute act! He's so very good, it just doesn't matter  |

"Armagideon Time - when punk met dub 1978-1984" - one of Cherry Red's 3CD boxed sets. Ruts, Clash, Aswad, Dillinger, Pop Group, Dennis Bovell et al. They've got so many of them now. I hope the quality stays decent. Jules It's a good mixture of (relatively) well-known artists and some obscure/oddities - well produced/(re?)mastered and excellent comprehensive sleevenotes. |

John Hiatt at the Bridgewater Hall on his farewell tour. A great songwriter, so sorry if he is indeed calling it a day. 90 minutes of wonderful songs from throughout his career. Fine support too from Martin Harley who I last saw at GBFF in Skegness.

The Owls are seeking Owlets...
Just one of my semi-regular calls to arms. Now that we're once again a fully-functional live band I'm back on the lookout for musicians to join our little collective. If you're an Essex-based musician and able to commit to rehearsing once a week in Leigh-on-sea, and playing a couple of dozen shows a year (mostly in the South, occasionally beyond) then feel free to get in touch. Right now we'd like to hear from you if you play bass, drums, strings, woodwind or guitar. theowlserviceband@gmail.com |

I picked up the Strawbs album this weekend in a shop in Knowle! For RSD day itself I think I picked up: The Orb, Fabio Frizzi (On a very crackly coloured vinyl from Italy!), Art Of Noise, Black Sabbath, Gong, Hawkwind, National Health, Porcupine Tree, and Sisters of Mercy... I got some on the day, but mostly from online stores afterwards. I would have got the Blonde on Blonde but couldn't be bothered to get it afterwards. Same for the Goblin. I skipped the Tangerine Dream because it was only an EP. It's nice to see some enthusiasm still out there for RSD and the format itself. I'm already wondering what next year will bring. |

Mott the Hoople : Live - 30th Anniversary Edition (Columbia 2CD, 2004).
Not sure why, but I left this sealed for a long time, having bought it on release. The album was due at least one more anniversary when I opened it . It's certainly no disappointment. Post Dudes but still includes some older songs, and all of the groups lurching madness in concert. |
