I've just turned on BBC 4, I think it's Buddy Guy ripping into some great blues, boy can he play guitar! Bryan should get him in for some solo stuff.
NP: Buddy Guy - Skin Deep.

Sorry for being so late but the quiet pint in the pub walked straight into some mad kareoke and birthday party night. Now in to Joan Armouredplatin singing all the way from America!
Another whistle test minute.
Anyway the point of this entry is to say that OK COMPUTER was voted the most influential and brilliant album ever produced by a british band on a channel 4 survey! Now radiohead are good.
But sorry I don't agree.
There is lots of coverage about how "Roxy Music" was the best debut album ever! Maybe, maybe not!
However I am with Helen's beloved Morrisey on this when he was asked to name his top ten classic british albums-- i think that was the question --if not something similar- and he said there is only one-- For Your Pleasure!
And with that it is good night and good luck to you all for tomorrow there will always be blue sunsets and grey lagoons!

Hi Jim,
Yeah good old Moz, He could only name " For Your Pleasure" He's a big Roxy fan, and loved all the glam Rock period.

Boz Scaggs-- "I just go" from the Dig album-- I saw this on later with Jules and was just knocked out-- a million miles from Lido shuffle!

I really liked Lido Shuffle and the album it was from (as far as I can remember), I have LS on my iTunes, but nothing else by him.
NP: Bowie - Sweet Thing/Candidate from a great free CD with the Mail today. I have all the tracks already, but it's brill selection.

He is a very strange guy-- started out being vocalist for Stevie Miller band but takes long periods away from music altogether. He wrote "your all alone" which Rita Coolidge had a huge hit with and "look what you done to me" for the soundtrack for Urban Cowboy

Ah, I wondered where he'd come from.
I also had that Rita Coolidge album (1st big relationship album as I remember, aah), now just have YAA on iTunes.
As for the Mozza reference, I think Moz was a huge Bowie fan in his early teens, but has now fallen out of love with Bowie and would say anything from the glam years was better than Bowie, not to take anything away from FYP, but as a wonderful british album you should also look toward Dark Side OTM & Hunky Dory.
