yea, I found the very early stuff very interesting
I saw it (if it's the same one) a couple of years ago, and it was the first time I knew about her daughter.

Yeah think thats the same one.

Her earlier stuff, up to and including the Hissing of the Summer Lawns, is great. Im not into jazz in any big way so Hejira and later stuff is lost on me. Music made for musicians basically.

Really enjoying PiLs new album. Have tickets for the Dublin show too.






Also Bobby Womack has got the all clear from the Big C. Great news.

And I'm happy for purely selfish reasons - I've tickets for him and Van the Man in August!

There's a new documentary on Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here being shown tonight http://www.bbc.co.uk...rammes/b01j0yyv in the Classic Albums series.

Some of my best and some of my worst concerts have been Van The Man.  On form he's magnificent.  Saw him one night play for four and a half hours at a club in Newport - reckoned to be one of his best ever gigs in one biography.
Hope it's a good one for you.

Cheers. Its Womack, Tom Jones and Van. Outdoors. Could be a great gig.


Just saw this photo. Two of my all time favourites.
