Time to give Argus another outing as it’s prog o’clock.
I’m really enjoying this.
Hey David ,why the long face?

Here’s a little snippet from the wiki…
Writing in Spin, jazz writer Ken Micallef noted the album for its influence on the drill ‘n’ bass subgenre and stated that, with Feed Me Weird Things and Hard Normal Daddy, Jenkinson “did to jungle what Frank Zappa did to rock—satirized its excesses with a maze of neurotic, scurrying notes, while adding a nerdy musicality that practically invented a new genre.”
Elton John. Honky Chateau and Don’t shoot me.
Back to back, 2 of my favourite 3 of his. The other being Captain Fantastic.
A bit of easy listening for a wet and windy Monday evening
Sailing To Philadelphia - Mark Knopfler
Love the duet on the title track with James Taylor
Graham Parker - Last Chance to Learn the Twist - Tidal 16/44
I’m not spotting much love for the later GP further up the thread, but I love the recent work. He’s kept the wry worldview of the young sneerer and has still got the knack of turning a sharp phrase. And I’m impressed with the band I’ve seen a couple of times over the last few years.
Giving it a twist……he is 72?……god how time passes. Sounds pretty good.
Spiritualized - Songs in A&E - 2008
I could quite easily listen to an hours worth of the first mellotron track, but it’s the six short ‘Harmony’s’ that make this a great album.
One of my all time favourites.
