Ah Buckfastleigh. Is that where you’re from? My wife’s family were all from that area. They owned half of it at one time (long ago) including the mill. We still own a useless field next to the church that burned down 😄

Been quite off gaming for the last few months, but this is surprisingly good. Alan Wake II was a freebie for this month’s PS+ games and it has hooked me back in. Genuinely scary too.

Promotional image of the Alan Wake 2 game. A female FBI agent is seen navigating a hell like red forest carrying a torch and pistol. The protagonist Alan Wake is seen almost vision like superimposed over the whole image. Title is written in capitals across the middle.

Today's #TuneTuesday theme, #BigCrescendos, is looking for songs with exciting high points.

This is probably the most obvious track with a cacophonous crescendo and the first one that popped into the brain this morning.

The Beatles - A Day In The Life

Gorkys Zygotic Mynci are a terrific band from Wales, sometimes they sing in the Welsh language, especially early on in their career, but mostly not. I really rate them, and if you don’t know them I highly recommend checking them out.

Barafundle from 1997.

Still in the ‘D’ rack and another album I haven’t played for ages. Gave it a preemptive clean. I do now have a sudden urge to watch Apocalypse Now though.

Playing because I happened to see it whilst putting Dire Straits back in the rack and thought hell yeah! Haven’t played this for a while - seems like a good day for it.

Right, time to prep some veg. I may as well continue with another Straits album.

At the comedy night on Friday there was a piano guy in the bar afterwards. He played Sultans of Swing and it reminded me what a great track that is. I love this Dire Straits album, more than any of their others. #vinyl #NowPlaying #DireStraits

And the pace keeps changing. Nothing I can say about this album that hasn’t been said before. I LOVE it. #vinyl #TheOffspring #Americana

On my third coffee, and as is traditional for Sunday some Art Blakey & Co.

I’m just missing the cigarette.

Glad to take this one off my wants list. I was never going to pay the cash being asked for a 1st pressing. I love Rumours, it’s a great record, I don’t think many would disagree with that, and I have always thought of Buckingham Nicks as a sister record to that album.

That’s even more bizarre as it is so disheveled, star falling off, it could be second week of January 2026.

Oooh La La, it’s #TuneTuesday again and we’re looking for tracks with #NonLexicalVocals today.

Here’s Billy Bragg with The Saturday Boy and the line "la la la la la la la la means I love you" - a nod to the 1968 classic Delfonics song.
