WORDS ABOUT MUSIC + POP CULTURE

  • RAULT

    Have you heard of Michael Rault? Well, there’s a good chance he released the finest LP of 2022, if you’re into perfect pop that’s cut with all good things like West Coast 70s music, Paul McCartney’s Wings, ELO (aka Beatles: The Musical), Harry Nilsson etc. If you need more modern recommendations, then file Michael Rault…

  • BEGIN TRANSMISSION

    What’s the deal here? A music blog, being launched in a time when blogging is absolutely dead, especially trying to cover music? What’s the point in that? Well, call it a labour of love.

  • JUNIPERS RED BOUQUET BELTER!

    The greatest band in the whole world – The Junipers – haven’t made any new music in a while  (which we’re all poorer for), but that doesn’t mean you can’t have a piece of them in your home. Their magical ‘Red Bouquet Fair’ LP is available on the group’s Bandcamp page, and as its Bandcamp…

  • BICKERSHAW FESTIVAL FOOTAGE

    The Bickershaw Festival is the stuff of legend in the North of England, and to anyone with an interest in the UK’s festival scene. Staged in a mining town with not much going on in 1972, the show was spearheaded by Jeremy Beadle, who would of course go on to have a very interesting life…
