I've always felt the poignancy of this lyric especially as I got older and felt at times that my dreams had indeed gone forever.

Brits n Pieces III – Album Review
Three is a magic number! Three is seen as a lucky number amongst owners of Mini Cooper's from the 1960's because it represents the 3 used in the classic Michael Caine Film The Italian Job. This may not actually be true but I'd like to think it is. What is true though is that Marc … Continue reading Brits n Pieces III – Album Review
The Skinner Brothers – The Real Peaky Blinders

Soundtrack of the year – Pocket Lint – Themes for Silcaville
Late summer and a strange oblong object drops through my door, something that looks like its from the past but also futuristic in its look.

Wake up! It’s the Sky Diving Penguins. Album review
2021 has been a funny year for music, certainly in my musical tastes, as a large part of it has been dipped in rich psychedelic chocolate loveliness.
