Dipped in and out to Glasonbury and fairly underwhelmed by what I heard. But tuned into Sunday headliner, Olivia Rodrigo and really a breath of fresh air. Great energy, great band and just fine pop/rock songs. Crowd mostly young females, sang along to every word and clearly had a ball. I was impressed.


It was a shame that the Beeb didn't seem to be showing anything from the smaller stages. Apart from catching the odd song by the likes of Pulp and Supergrass, the band I enjoyed the most was Black Uhuru. They certainly spanned the generations with an impressive young drummer while one of the singers and the keyboard player looked like they could have been in the band from the start. According to Wikipedia singer Derrick "Duckie" Simpson has been the only constant member of the band.

There was a young 23 year old singer songwriter at Leigh-on-Sea Folk Festival yesterday who was selling his music on cd or....cassettes  Roll Eyes
Is this the way forward? He said vinyl is too expensive!

Picked up the following at my favorite record store yesterday (Hoboken)

Take Me Back To Tulsa-4 disc Bob Wills collection
Johnny Cash At Folsom Prison (Legacy Edition)
A Bob Seger 2 disc UK imprint that includes some real rarities such as Rosalie, Innervenus Eyes, and Lenny Johnson…not official release but I couldn’t resist
Steeleye Span-Liive At The Bottom Line 1974. One interesting thing on this one is a medley of 3 Irish tunes-Musical Priest, Silver Spear and the High Reel. Well known tunes I’m sure Peter knew but that pairing makes me think someone had been listening to Horslips!

All for $45!
