Earlier I heard a Joe Bonnamassa special on Paul Jones' Radio 2 show.

Prompted me to play his Live in Amsterdam CD with Beth Hart. Some fantastic stuff on there.

I only came across Beth for the first time when she was on the last Hootenanny, and was the undoubted highlight when she sang "Nutbush City Limits", with Jeff Beck on guitar.

She's been playing some gigs recently, but I left it too late to get a ticket.

Any news on the "town-front", Horseradish? I'm dying to know which song it was.

No. :)

I thought it might be Jason Isbell but it isn't and I think it is a group with a female singer as well as a male.

You SURE it's not Deacon Blue?!

The new Radiohead track:

Such a great video.

Yes, it's beautifully made. The whole thing, song and video, is creepy.

Impossible question time. I was standing in a garden centre a few weeks ago and there was a song on the piped music system called something or other Town. First, I thought it was Springsteen. Then Ryan Adams. Then Billy Joel or another artist in the 1970s although it had a pop/rock country twang. It was quite harmonious in the chorus. And it was something like Dirt Town or Dregs Town or Gutter Town or Dole Town - that was the sentiment although it might have had an all American name like Dirks Town or Smiths Town or Schmidts Town. It could be very new or it could be very old. It's been driving me mad ever since trying to discover what it is. Hay-ulp!

Did someone mention Barry Town by Steely Dan?

how about This Town by Elvis Costello?
