Hey Simon–

Just read you comment on my blog. We’ve got a historic/ Conservation Area Advisory Committee going in Noel park now. We meet the second Wednesday of each month — except December –in Shropshire hall. Also, our local MP, Lynn Featherstone is going to do a walk through of the estate on Nov. 27th to discuss conservation issues.

If you’re interested in any of that, please email me privately & I’ll fill you in on the details.

If you’re interested in any

ahhhh, Kid A. I was neck-deep into the writing of my Master’s thesis when my “buy it now and it’s delivered on the release date” copy from amazon came. immediately it became requisite…as you well know, there are times and situations that call for über-specific pieces of music: this was one. I wasn’t sleeping (really…at all…for three months) and was stone-skipping toward breakdown stages along the way with this paper and with life.

So, into my world of strange, as it was, comes Kid A. It shuffled in to my 24-hour day Big Band & Western Swing-heavy rotation and stayed. I cannot think of that time without thinking of this entire record…the brilliant opening Everything, In limbo, well, all of it really. I mean, many of those works are very happy to be on their own but, for me, the play of any of those songs on my ipod immediately mentally cues the next song on the album…and leads me to wonder: don’t some songs just really need to be played in a particular order? Shouldn’t National Anthem be followed by how to disappear?

anyway, sorry for the long post. it’s a great record…happy you’ve found it. now then, my friend, do you know Amnesiac?

Great tribute to a great artist and even greater human being. Thank you for remembering Sam and his wonderful music legacy.

In case I forget to tell you later, when I was snoring through paperwork today I was digging about in my bag to see if there was a stray sweet or something to lift my mood, I haven’t used this bag in a while and in the pocket I found the April 15th McDonalds receip for Enfieldt! Looks like we had the usual
