Live looping vocals and kantele from Pelkka Poutanen

Driving home from band rehearsal yesterday evening (Rememberance Sunday) this came on Radio 3. I'd not heard it before, and being on the motorway I couldn't hear all the lyrics, so this morning I checked the programme's playlist and looked it up on YouTube. Beautiful and moving. It was written and is also performed by Eric Bogle.

In this one, it's guitar and bass in unison - does that count?

Ozzie sings Marvin Gaye: Wherever I Lay My Bat (That's My Home)

Prescient 1969 review of a hybrid delivery vehicle: 21st Century Schizoid Van

Well, it didn't used to, before almost every gig was filmed on someone's phone and then posted to YouTube or Facebook to stand forever as a testament to one's imperfections.

Did they ever find out who let the dogs out?

I didn't realise A.S. (Artificial Stupidity) had come this far.

Money you say? Excellent. Tell me more about this "suckling" process.

His third version was no better - a tribute to Mother Theresa, who died shortly after Diana - "Sandals in the Bin"

The Bruford / Wetton incarnation of King Crimson is one of my all time favourite rock bands - their live output (at the time USA, and more recently the "Great Deceiver" boxed set and "The Night Watch" retrospective releases) are far better than the studio albums imo.

Yes, entering the tracking info triggers the payment process.

Litmus playing at Kozfest, Axminster last month. (I am on keys and silly noises - not hugely audible for most of the vid)

If I were being petty, I would suggest that everyone should visit the site, then use the contact info supplied to demand to see, and then demand to delete all the data he's holding on them. That should slow him down a bit. Good job I'm not that petty.

Tomorrow (Fri 28th July) space-rock band Litmus will be playing at Kozfest in Axminster. 20.00-21.00.

Martin bought my Sire U5 bass. Lovely guy, and all went well. Deal with confidence.

Ouch! Those FZ-2's are going for silly money now. For context, the recording was made in the mid 70's, so far fewer options would have been available than are out there now.

I'd like to get the kind of creamy fuzz tone that can be heard at 5m.20s and following in this video - I was thinking maybe a Behringer sf300. Any thoughts?

Welcome from another local - not Brighton or Hove, but within about 5 miles, on the South Downs.

The night after the above Huginn & Muninn gig, I was playing keys and weird noises with space-rock band Litmus headlining Friday night at Tannerfest, in Loddington, near Kettering. A few photos have appeared, but I am invisible in all of them. The email I received with this photo said: "Richard is represented by a glowing green stripe" - which is actually part of my keyboard stand setup.
