… the mutual agony of parents taking kids to concerts.
… “Tap! Tap! Tap!”, the “gacked up” sound of the Heartbreakers’ at work in Fort Petty.
… “Two old voices crack through the static/ Vinyl souls dissected so erratic”: AI’s nerve-jangling interpretation of Word In Your Ear – in song!
… the four stages of showbiz … and three stages of hearing music.
… the miracle birth of Don Henley’s ‘The Boys Of Summer’.
… why we tend to run the other way when people insist we’d like something.
… records that make sense 40 years later – and a message from Brian Eno.
… EMF and the graffiti, Carter USM rugby tackling Phillip Schofield, Radiohead playing ‘My Iron Lung’: bands “too cool” for the Smash Hits Poll Winners’ Party.
