Sad news today that the world has lost Max Eider, brilliant fleet-fingered guitarist of the Jazz Butcher Conspiracy. A little unsung, perhaps, but one of my favourite musicians of my younger years youtu.be/R3HX964PrQo?...

What’s that? Not just a crust for you, did something go awry?
Did they tell you they were sorry that, today, we must deny
Even a crumb of comfort? Were you really fed a lie?
Waiting for the slice you were promised of the billionaire’s pie.

Did you get none of the filling because the demand for it was high?
Did the hungriest get served first as the days and weeks went by?
Did the rich prioritise the starving to make sure they wouldn’t die?
How blessed are the downtrodden who receive the billionaire’s pie.

Did you line up for your serving, did you exclaim “oh my!
There are so many people who want feeding from our guy.”
Did you wait in line all patiently, and not roll your eyes or sigh
And say we’ll all be grateful yet for the good billionaire’s pie.

Did you enjoy your rightful slice of the billionaire’s pie?
Did it taste delicious, did it fully satisfy?
Did their wealth and generosity mean you didn’t have to buy
A weighty ample plateful of the kind billionaire’s pie.

It’s become a thing that Keir Starmer loved Orange Juice, and quite rightly so. But he must’ve loved other bands too. I think we have the right to know…did he like other Postcard bands? Was he enamoured of the bands on Kitchenware? What of the Jazz Butcher?
