If you live in Edinburgh, or are here during festival season, I recommend a visit to Pianodrome in Bruntsfield: an intimate amphitheatre made entirely from upcycled pianos, it's a truly ingenious, atmospheric & engaging space. There’s a full events programme in August – many free. www.pianodrome.org

I'm not sure I'll ever get used to the idea that when a person is upset about something, for some the choice is to pick up their phone, film themselves crying, and then post it on the internet for public display and comment.

There's a lovely review of In Another World in the new issue of The Idler. ‘Fascinating … a pointedly personal celebration of an often insane-sounding musical visionary, whose working methods bordered on madness … yet nevertheless, as this admirable book makes plain, his music demands to be heard.’

On the day I hear my cousin has died (himself a big Talk Talk fan), I finally finished this fantastic book. Thanks @graemethomson.bsky.social for adding more to the story, but also new dimensions to my listening back to those 4 records. Like them, I savoured it as slowly as I could.
