When my son was very young, when we left the car, he would always have to kiss it goodbye. 33 years later, he is just as quirky.

It's Hannah Peel, so of course it's going to be good.

42 years ago I was off out to the Bali Hai for the night. A few in the Newmarket first though.

May well have been, they were okay. Could always catch them some night in Nottingham playing a pub or club.

Peed off with the early dark nights already? Some lovely light sun warped Psych/surf sounds to make you think of warmer climes.

Crank up the volume for Fuzz's self-titled debut of old-school metal & hard rock

A top folk album consisting of 8 traditional songs that Sam Lee learnt from the English, Irish & Scottish travelling community. Lee's marvellous voice do the songs justice and the choice of the unusual musical accompaniment gives them a modern twist.

Strong contender for a place in my 5, Gazelle Twin's,The Entire City. A beautiful haunting debut. Music to lie back and chill out to.

The Janitors - First Sign of Delirium

The influences of JAMC & BRMC are clear to here. It's an okay album & is a decent enough listen. A lot lighter sound than the one the band have evolved into of today, dark heavy drones and fuzzed out grooves . I prefer the latter.

Bo Ningen's debut from 2010. Wild guitars and explosive drums assaulting you in a glorious manner, although throwing in some calmer moments to allow you to draw breath. A band that's wonderful live.

Dead Sea Apes - Lupus

A wonderful dark, moody, oppressive, instrumental psych/space rock album. Be patient with it and let it pull you in. I love it.

Goat introducing themselves in 2012 in a most wonderful way with their debut album World Music.

Tiring weekend after having to take my mam to A&E in the early hours of Saturday and spending 17 hours there, then caring for her today. Finally home and needing the comfort blanket of Ol' Blue Eyes.

My Great Grandparents with their 9 daughters and 1 son. They had another son, but sadly, he died as an infant.

Don't think any of them will make my 5, but of the 4, my preference order is

1. Lloyd Cole
2. Long Ryders
3. Bunnymen
4. FB3

Bizarrely, I found this badge in a charity shop in Kingsbury, prior to the game at Barnet yesterday. I'm guessing it was produced at the same time the book covers and assuming you already have one, but if not...

The hand dryer in one of the pubs today was a bit of a gamble
