Honestly think December releases should be counted as 2026 just to help my year end lists 😂

I hope you enjoy the album as much as I have over the years, Ricky. Top one or two in my #5debutalbums1014 next week 😊

That’s good to hear, Vincent - although I thought I’d got my albums of the year longlist sorted! It’s a constantly moving target 😂

Love the voice of Judie Tzuke, Vincent. Thanks for putting her new album on my radar - I didn’t know it was coming! What’s your verdict?

I haven’t ranked my list of fifteen, but Crimson Skies would have been 🥈

Oh, that’s brilliant, Vincent! Have you seen Nerina before? We saw her in a pub in Oxford on this tour for the umpteenth time. One of our favourite artists and there’s always plenty of great banter from her on stage 😆 Look out for her new covers CD on the merch stand - only available at tour venues.

I’m not familiar with Julie Byrne, Phil. I’ve looked her up and her music could be right up my street. Great to see so much variety in the reposts 🎵

Yes it did, Ricky 😊 One play so far. Will put it on again over my morning coffee. I’ll report back!

A bumper delivery - A Bridge To Far and The World Under Unsun! As you know, the latter is very long, so I’ve only been able to listen to both, once 😂
First impression of Midlake - beautiful from the start. Side one is the band on top form. I need to actively listen to all of it again myself though 😊

It will sound just as good!

Look what’s #NowPlaying here Mary!

Thank you for your ace recommendation - I would never have known about it 🙏🏻

That’s great to hear, Ricky. FC were a one-album band and the red vinyl is something of a rarity. Well done for finding yours!

Isn’t it just! Thank you. The song that drew me into their music in the first place 😊

It’s due to be delivered by 9:40 am, Ricky! I’m stood by the front window, looking for Royal Mail 😂 How about you?
