At 3 minutes 2 seconds, this 1972 New Orleans funk-soul gem from Inell Young is criminally short, forever leaving you wanting more. The lift into the chorus, the way the melody rides over the chord changes with such sweet sadness, her voice so plaintive, man, it just kills me every single time 😍😍😍

Pasta companies, wtf, why do you continue to use bags that rip the moment i go near them? Why are they so difficult to open yet so prone to tearing once opened? Why don't you use normal bags? Everyone else has mastered bags, why not you?

Was writing a press release today, and going through the bits the record label had sent me, the music, track list, artwork etc. I started to get wound up, saying to myself ‘Well this is all great but where’s the press release to go with it all?’ before remembering I was supposed to be writing it…

It may not look likely today, but many years ago I had the fastest backspin in my home town, and if you wanted to battle, I’d burn you bad.
