I Can Take You To The Sun – The Misunderstood

via youtube.com
While digging around to find tracks for the Rock Machine collections I came across this track from 1966. As a 13 or 14 year old I first heard this listening under the covers (assuming my parents couldn’t hear) to John Peel on Radio London. He played this track and I went out [...]

The Rock Machine Turns You On

In 1968 CBS released a sampler album called the Rock Machine Turns you on. I loved it but it is long gone from my collection. Thought I’d try and recreate it here on Youtube. Got 13 of 15 tracks. “I’ll Be Your Baby Tonight” by Bob Dylan and “Nobody’s Got Any Money In The Summer” [...]

Rock Machine I Love You

As promised here is as much of Rock Machine I Love You as I can find on Youtube. Not as much as I hoped but most of the tracks are here.
The link will be here in a minute as posterous threw a wobbly over embedding a youtube playlist last time so have to edit [...]

Photo of the day – for a year?

Have decided to do a photo of the day on Flickr. I will be trying to put one photo a day up for the whole year as a reminder of at least one thing I did that day. An idea unashamedly nicked from John Culshaw who I heard talking about doing this on the radio.
Some [...]

Reg Keys tells it how it is

Father of soldier killed in Iraq calls Tony Blair a war criminal
There is no one more qualified than Reg Keys — whose son Tom was killed in Iraq — to comment on Tony Blair’s admission to the BBC that, if he hadn’t used the non-existent weapons of mass destruction to justify a war crime, he [...]

Britons ‘won’t change to fight global warming’ – Channel 4 News

via channel4.com
This is a depressing article on how Britons won’t change their lifestyles to fight global warming.
However it’s not really that surprising is it? Some of us live in circles where people do change and do all they can. The complete indifference shown by the vast majority hightlights how big a job [...]
