Permanently lost in lots of #music genres. Used to shout in an unambitious but quite riotous band, who rarely played beyond our own doorstep. Like to read a bit. Diverse but probably mainly #NoirFiction, #WeirdFiction #PulpFiction and #ClassicGhostStories. Probably won't talk too much until I do and then quite randomly.

Every time I post about jazz, I lose swathes of followers. Sorry! I will try to keep it to a minimum. Music is one of my #asd / #adhd / #neurodivergent obsessions. And I'm a designer, so I love album cover art too (I've even designed a couple of covers myself)

Anyway, I can't stop bingeing this album at the moment. If my mate Tim hadn't kept on at me for years about Miles' electric period, I wouldn't be the pandemonium- and fusion-chaos-loving man I am today.

One of my hopes for 2023 is to be able to get back out and about taking photographs in my home city of #Glasgow. I miss it and used to find it very therapeutic. These were taken early winter morning in the West End whilst waiting for training course delegates to arrive at our company flat.

If you need a boost from external nonsense, I can highly recommend #StandingStoneSunday. A top quality hashtag I never encountered in that other place.

I’m watching a 1978 edition of ‘Ask the Family’ (no, I don’t know why). It’s positively prehistoric, but the theme tune and title sequence, which remind me of ‘Picture Box’, used to fascinate me when I was a kid. The music, ‘Sun-Ride’, is by John Leach, issued by the Chappell Recorded Production Music Library.

@TheVinylConstituency Always loved how that theme switches from 'It's a lovely day for skipping down the street, isn't it!' to 'I think I'm being followed by a man in a trench coat'. Coupled with the ruddy cheeked murderers in the graphics, it's definitely a winner.
@RussJazz Brilliant. Rabble rousing and agitating is always underrated, till folk really need it. *Virtual (and actual) glass raise*
@RussJazz Tim Warren. He's put out some amazing records, but I always imagine him poking out an eye when it might not always be warranted (& I'm not saying I'm innocent in that department). Was he like that as a kid?
@[email protected] Hahaha. He'd have to buy lots of people a decent meal first.
