Listening to Tom McKinney’s programme, which preceded Sarah this morning, he played the second movement from Schubert’s string quintet in C, D956, which I’m not sure I’ve heard before. It was beautiful. I’ll have to research and buy a copy on CD.

Richard Ashcroft - Acoustic Hymns Vol.1
Been listening a fair amount of Richard Ashcroft and The Verve but this album really hits the spot. Sounding great just like the music deserves.

Not included on the original Synchronicity release, which was a bit of a crime. Great song and brilliant drumming from Copeland imho.

I have bought very few singles in my life, this is one of them and I still think it is great. Saw them play live in about 1979. It was quite a big hit, but not in the uk.

Mogwai - Every Country’s Sun. A new purchase on CD. Mogwai have largely passed me by, but I’m now making up for that as I delve into their back catalogue.

Jimmy Buffett - Changes In Latitudes Changes In Attitudes - CD (1977)
Can’t Believe its a year since Jimmy passed away aged 76 at his home in Sag Harbor, New York, due to complications from Merkel-cell carcinoma, a rare and aggressive skin cancer. He had the 1977 US No.8 single ‘Margaritaville’ and the 2004 US No.1 album ‘License to Chill’ and the US Country No.1 'It’s Five O’Clock Somewhere with Alan Jackson (2003). Buffett was one of the world’s richest musicians, with a net worth of $1 billion and was known for his tropical rock sound and persona, which often portrayed a lifestyle described as “island escapism” and promoted enjoying life and following passions.
