Did see Bob Dylan in 1979/80 some where in London, Slow train running album was out, and the whole show from memory was the new stuff.  Missed him at  the festival in Blackbush Airfied in 1978, due to doubling up on prescribed anti depressant tablets by mistake and not feeling at all right. (Walked from Fleet hants to Blackbush and back)

Saw an advert for Bob Dylan playing Swansea in November. We've never seen him live.

Checked the prices. Absolutely mental.

Still never going to have seen him live.



Think it's sold out isn't it, so the price you're seeing is probably resale?  Although, on checking, maybe not...£83++ I think?  Quite bizarre that he's playing 3 nights in Swansea and, given the fact he's (politely) so erratic these days, that they've sold out...

So much to love here.  What a finale to a long career.

Just got round to buying Conflict. Top notch album. Plenty of rock guitar but the violin & vocal harmonies give it plenty of subtlety too.

The strong run continues.

R.E.M. at the BBC, an 8CD compilation which I picked up yesterday.


That's normally pretty pricey isn't it?  Good?
Usually about £50. Barnardos had it at a much more reasonable price.

EVerything I've listened to so far has been splendid.

With regards to Alan Prosser, on Volume 4 of The Guv’nor on Track 8-A Simple Melody is the band shown in that photo-Ashley, Alan, DM, Cathy Lesurf, Dave Whetstone, and Jean-Pierre Rasle…listed as 1983. Presumably Alan depped for Simon?


Nice one, Robert.  I think Simon was a little in and out of the Albions at this juncture so, yes, probably.  I remember being 16 or whatever I was and talking to older attendees at the Albion Band gig I mentioned in Liphook and the conversations were all very much of the "who is going to turn up tonight" kind.

Percy's Saving Grace.  Personally, I preferred them when they were playing little theatres in Wales and the Marches but, hey, things move on...
