Surely that only happens in Crewe when Chris Hughes is grumpy?

See/hear 'Hancock's Car.'
'Move it.'
'I can't move it, I have nowhere to put it.'
'Put it in a garridge,'
'I do not have a garaarge.'
Will do!

A lot of the songs in the charts at the moment are awful, repetitive cr@p. Especially that 'Na na, na na na na na na nah' one. I could punch a kitten whenever I hear it.

Why would you inflict that on my poor ears?!

Whoops. I like it. 
Four years ago, I put a message on the now defunct BBC forum: "What is that song from the 90s that goes "na, na, na?". Three members of the public replied "Temple Head".
Then to my astonishment a fourth wrote: "Yeah, that's right. Great isn't it. All the best, Annie Nightingale". What a nice woman. Not a lot of them would do it.
Anyhow, as it is Womad weekend, and I'm not there, I'm playing some of the proper stuff. This classic is repetitive but what a vibe.

Yes. I rather hope Bob Dylan lives to 110, however unlikely.

As long as they can dig out these archival gems from the vaults everything's ok.

Yes both, Chappers. Better luck to George tonight with spiders!

Thanks, mate!
Only found a smallish one today, hiding in an old glass.
I thought the clip might be Ziggy Stardust, or "Boris The Spider". 
Here's Swim Deep's "King City".
I like the strung-out quality to the vocal.

Yes, I was thinking it was a spider but it was a fly. Thanks for Swim Deep. A commercial production but there is some atmospheric range which I liked, particularly in the vocal accompaniment. Before shopping for food, one which is arguably strong in all but the singing although that fits too. It always evokes a specific time.
