I'm finally grown up enough to stop being sniffly about Dire Straits. Brothers in Arms is a masterpiece. There, you heard it.
"Oh, how the ghost of you clings! These foolish things remind me of you..." ❤️
And the nurse will tell you lies Of a kingdom beyond the skies But I am lost within this half-world It hardly seems to matter now.....
First one of these I've been arsed doing. Comps and greteats hits are, erm, great! Very boy-centric but I was 13-18, what you gonna do?
Yep, nothing wrong with a good compilation! #my9albums #compilations Sometimes lead you to other places too ...
FB vinyl pages continue to amuse, this time it's the clutching of pearls over including comps in the 9 albums list. Comps open doors, & sometimes a good comp is all you need. These nine were massive for me. #ninealbums #compilations #MusicSky
Good morning all. Storm Boelo howling outside. But, there's coffee & Elvis. ❤️

Queen - Night at the Opera, one of those albums everyone should own a copy of #vinyl #vinylcommunity #nowplaying #nowspinning
Tunes taken from the musical based on Noël Coward's "Blithe Spirit". This is very easy on the ear. Lovely. "Production supervised by Noël Coward"
Long weekend.... And a couple of nights out. Starting off with some Brit jazz from 1970. Some post bop, a touch of harbour bop, and dashes of free jazz. It's all here. Have a lovely weekend, all.
Dónal Lunny has passed away. In terms of Irish music, he was the fulcrum. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam. This is one of my favourite as Gaeilge tunes. Donal on vocals & bouzouki, featuring Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh & the late Danny Thompson. #DonalLunnyRIP youtu.be/tmfmLxsVlzk?...

Another one that's been here for years & years. I think this is the first play. I loved "Grace", not sure why I've never played it. Good morning all.
At times this album is too much for a sad soul to bear, but it's remarkable. "I have read all your letters I know what you contain I have dreamt your dreams My head My head is haunted I will scream again "I am perfectly sane" "I am perfectly sane" But I am The invisible man I am The invisible man"
"I've been uptight and made a mess But I'll clean it up myself, I guess Oh, the sweet smell of success Handle me with care" ❤️ The sound of autumn 1988....😳
A music video director on Word In Your Ear, discussing Ian Dury's magnificent Wake Up And Make Love With Me, in particular the synth(Moog) solo, calling it unlikely as it was released during punk's peak, as unlikely as "Keith Emerson having a hit in the middle of punk". Wake up, man. #2, 1977.

From 1994, the uneven but often beguiling "Carnival Of Light". Never the greatest lyricists, there's doggerel on here that would make William McGonagall blush. But, musically there's a lot to love.
From 2024, the splendid "Interplay" from Ride. Back in Dublin next year. Woop.
Jeff's debut solo album from 1990. It's a lovely thing. Features George Harrison & Richard Tandy.
