Seriously rich pickings in 1977, I rode my skateboard a lot in that particular year.

Hello bamber,

I was recently told by someone far younger than me (my step son) that emails were yesterdays news, and that there would little point in trying to contact him that way. Given that it is (or at least was) my perception that emails were about as out there as man / woman could achieve, I was, more than temporarily, non plussed. I have therefore concluded the following;

(1) I know nothing.

(2) I know even less about the advance of modern technology, but have somehow assumed that something 10 years old would be considered old, and that this would include music.

(3) That, in connection with point 2, I really shouldn't try to get down there with the kids - and that any ambition that I previously had to declare myself gender neutral, would not be met with respect, but with that of utter derision.

PS. I'm not sure that the above functions as an informative answer to your question.

PPS - I'm not sure that I've been entirely truthful above.

Yes, it's very catchy. I'd heard it years ago but had the ipod that it was on stolen. Then I couldn't remember who the artist was and what it was called, but have wanted to hear it again for a few years now. Anyway, low and behold, it came back in to my life earlier today, and thought I'd share.

I just watched Baby Driver so these two tunes are taken from that:

I thought I would throw in this NPR article on Joan Armatrading and her album "Walk Under Ladders":
