Not the same for me. There's always been women singers. I think it's a product of being a child of the punk era. Sure there weren't as many but Patti Smith, Poly Styrene, SIouxsie would have been a starting point, then Pauline Black and Clare Grogan through quite a few more to Tania Donnelly and the gang, Bjork and onwards. Sure there were more male singers in the collection but there just were more male singers at the time but it was never down in the 10% female percentile. In fact I think I was more prepared to listen if it was a female singer than a male

Are you back in the shires now? Forgot to tell you that thee was a decent 2nd hand shop not too far away from Streatham in Crystal Palace

If they make you cross, ply your comments elsewhere

tread carefully now

I though he said he was eating a variety of French tyres? Have I got that wrong?

You think? Here's a whole double album of them from my collection. Its a great compilation, good jumping off point What's that saying about jazz being the teacher and funk being the preacher? Discogs

Well in a similar vein as above, I'm currently listening to this compilation CD (contains Marvin Gaye, Dionne Warwick, Chairman of the Board and 20 more) Say A Little Prayer, political? You betcha, Hal David was really pleased to get that one past the radio station censors twice within a year Discogs for Tracklist

I went for the boringly predictable Toney Out, Haaland In transfer. Decided to FH in 32 as 34 should be easy enough anyway -
Sing better that Bob though?

I'm amazed you think it was ever any different tbh

Thats Tory rhetoric, it's not Toryism in practice

Would you rather be governed by a duck or a vulture?

I'll wager most of them could actually sing though

You think the Labour should campaign on being lax with criminals and will hit peoples income too? Being tough on crime has absolutely nothing to do with Neo-liberalism, privatizing the criminal justice system would be neo-liberalism but I see no evidence of that here Labour and most left parties have never been particularly socially liberal being more about the controlling people for the collective greater good. Labour isnt and never has been a party of individual freedom as that has very little to do with any left political thinking Being tough on crime is entirely consistent with a party on the left

Only announced today but resigned some time ago. It may even have been them that precipitated this, they would have a legal duty to report financial misconduct

Could easily have been a heart attack

Quite a few you'd imagine, the only mistake is releasing the first of the series about child sexual exploitation. If that had been later in the series of Top Trumps you'd imagine the reaction would be entirely different

I love that he goes for a bit of a slide, turns a handle and desperately needs a drink of water after his efforts

Just bought this on CD, Count Ossie and the Mystic Revelation of Rastafari - Tales of Mozambique Count Ossie was the first artist to commit Nyahbinghi drumming to record and this is considered a classic. Definitely channeling Sun Ra here Pic is for the vinyl, I'm playing the CD

That's quite the argument to be having on Russian State TV, it's not the regime coming to an end that is the story in that clip really, it's that he stated that things wouldn't be blowing up in Russia or that Russian cities wouldn't be being shelled if it wasn't for Russia's own actions in starting the Special Military Operation. That went a lot further than I've seen before on a Moscow talking heads show

it is a great cover

Whats his beef with substack?

Erm Ari Ups Mother too. She was a really interesting and undersung character in the original London squat/punk scene. Like a mother figure to the likes of The Clash and the Sex Pistols. Pre-punk she was also involved with Jimi Hendrix, WIshbone Ash and Yes amongst others. She was a media Heiress, I think she inherited over $100 million dollars when her dad died, he was one of the owners of Der Spiegel also her first husband was a Slager Singer of some note in Germany.
