A lovely event - cheers to those came etc and, of course, to Kat
Thank you to the Betsey Trotwood & Travis Elborough for having me yesterday. What a delightful crowd, what a lovely way to spend a Saturday afternoon…& Street Legal sounded pretty damn good on the record player, too.

Tomorrow afternoon at the Betsey - @katlister.bsky.social and I listen to the post-Elvis, post-divorce, pre-God-ish album Street Legal from 1978 - doors 2pm
Alright Bobcats, just a little reminder that I will be joining Travis Elborough at my fave pub on Saturday to talk all things Street Legal, an album I've loved since I was 17. I will be bringing my Dylan encyclopedia! I may even recite some Sam Shepard! There will definitely be beer! Join us!

The photo you see below was taken by the marvellous Travis Elborough in Bunhill Fields after Sinclair had walked us there. He had just climbed on top of the grave marking of John Bunyan seconds earlier. Sinclair is the real deal.
Great interview with Iain Sinclair on the 50th anniversary of Lud Heat (speaking of Sinclair, I thought Pariah Genius, his recent book exploring the life and death of seedy photographer John Deakin, was his best work in ages)
