#NowPlaying Light In Extension (vols 1&2) by Divination. These were from the prolific Bill Laswell, also featuring Jah Wobble, Buckethead and Mick Harris, among others.
Popped the telly on and there's a guy pretending to twiddle knobs to make music. Genius. #Calvin
50 years ago we arrived at Butterstone log cabins near Dunkeld for holiday. It wasn't a good one 'cos Dad was embarking on a nervous breakdown and what made it worse was hearing about Niki Lauda's dreadful crash in the German Grand Prix. My motor racing hero, and he won 2 championships afterwards.
My favourite bit in Skyfall - Bond arrives at the family pad and my eye was drawn to this stone as he pulls up. And he just clips it slightly and makes it wobble a bit #PerfectCelluloidMoment
In Heaven (Lady in the Radiator Song) from David Lynch's 1977 surreal masterpiece Eraserhead. Written by Peter Ivers and David Lynch. #davidlynch #eraserhead #coversong #70s #vintage #musicsky #musicchallenge
#NowPlaying A Steady Drip, Drip, Drip. When I ordered it, I wasn't expecting this 'long book' version. A happy mistake by someone, maybe me.
#NowPlaying Zing by Kleg. Experimental instrumental rock from the early 90s, so right up my street. Usually gets called 'post rock', this kind of stuff.
I'd be working in a joinery in Sheffield, spending any spare money on watching opera.

#NowPlaying And The Birds Sang by Larry Stabbins, in duets with Keith Tippett and Louis Moholo-Moholo. This is the new one from Jazz In Britain.
#NowPlaying Captain Lockheed and the Starfighters by Robert Calvert. A mixed bag, but it does contain my favourite Arthur Brown moment - "Cramp for the birdman at his height" - in Song of the Gremlin pt. 2
As it's getting hot again, it's time for The Fireman with Strawberries Oceans Ships Forest.
I got this as a 13 cassette boxed set, back in the Fourth Age...

More Heldon, this time their debut album Electronique Guerilla. Not so rocky, more spacious electronics, quite unsettling though. Features guest vocals from philosopher Gilles Deleuze.
Post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't Cardiacs or Stereolab

#NowPlaying Un Réve Sans Conséquence Spéciale by Heldon. They really lit up with this album - the opening Marie Virginie C is a tense, inhuman powerhouse.
Just catching the end of Gran Turismo on Channel4. The Le Mans bit is utter CGI bollocks
I've had the original CD since I was a little boy, but this new remaster of On Land And In The Sea is very fancy and big. Wonderful #Cardiacs
#NowPlaying La Bibbia by Il Rovescio Dello Medaglia. Release in 1971, they were an Italian power trio.
A moth the size of a condor just billowed its wings past my fizzog.
#NowPlaying Die Drift by Conny Frischauf. Very enjoyable electro-synth-pop, this is her debut from 2021. Another Bureau B release, their catalogue is well worth exploring.
Been after this for decades, found it on YouTube last week, tweeted it, got a like from @bureaub.bsky.social , checked, saw they'd just re-issued it last month, bought it, #NowPlaying Adonia by Ose. Legendary!
#NowPlaying Suspiria (original soundtrack) by The Goblins. One of Dario Argento's better films, my favourite bit is the totally gratuitous barbed wire room. A mate took me to see Goblin playing in front of Suspiria for my 50th birthday, at King's Hall, Ilkley.
#NowPlaying High Tide by High Tide. This CD also contains the best tracks off Sea Shanties, which I think was the only way you could get 'Death Warmed Up' at the time.
Another French album I could do with replacing on CD is Le bal du rat mort, by Komintern. From the early 70s, it's apparently quite political. It's also entirely instrumental, frivolous psych / jazzy / rock.
