Saying you know what the issues are but that you won't actually say what the issues are is textbook teasing Smiley

And a very nice man. I met him at Lytham Folk Club in the early seventies and he was very generous talking to this gauche teenager.

I agree. Those are both really good albums. Strangely Boo Hewerdine is someone I know more by reputation than by his material, but I really like Yvonne Lyon.

I've just finished listening to The Northstar Grassman and the Ravens.  I first heard 'Late November' on the Island sampler El Pea, 50 odd years ago. It steered me to this album, which is still my favourite of Sandy's. Lovely.


I just love that bit in 'North Star...' where she sings over herself. Gets me every time.

I have quite a lot of his stuff, but I think being an Ashley completist would be a thankless task.  Didn't he release an album a couple of years ago which was marketed as his 99th?  No idea how that is counted, but there are lots of relabelled ones, and different compilations too, and it isn't always clear (thanks TE!) what is what!

I have tried (not seen them live, mind) but I'm not a fan of Kavus's Gong - despite loving his solo work/Utopia Strong/Cardiacs etc etc.  Henge are supposed to be awesome though - got several friends who are very excited by this combination of acts.... Let us know how you get on.

My upcoming gig is, gulp, Toyah and Adam Ant at the weekend.  


I was impressed at how authentically Gonglike they sounded. Fine musicians all.

My offspring are taking me to the Trinity Centre, Bristol tomorrow for Henge & Gong. Post Daevid Allen Gong were great when I last saw them. Henge are an unknown quantity. Should be interesting, at least.  Smiley
