The final part of the musical interlude and it’s a sort of reminiscence starting recently and going back to primary school.
Even my housewife sister has this on CD, why had I not heard this until a week ago. Wet Leg are from the Isle of Wight, wet legs are from the mainland.
This next one reminds me of a couple of summers ago, sitting outside the library at 2 in the morning sharing a roll up with an autistic teenager who had her plans to go to university destroyed by Goodmayes a few months after me. It broke my heart to see the state they left her in. It’s a very long track but well worth the listen. Superb.
Placebo have been around donkey’s years and they’re still releasing material. This is an old track but I still like it.
Going back a bit, this stoner rock band are cool. Reminds me of the time I spent working for a fund manager in London.
This is an acoustic track by Tyla of one of his old Dogs D’amour tracks, my girlfriend at the time absolutely hated everything about this album.
This takes me back to when I got back from Australia and rented a 2 bed flat with a friend, he got me into this band over endless vodka, pizza and Playstation Worms sessions.
One or two people at university thought this should be my anthem, back then I used to measure distances in Marlboro red; it wasn’t a 20 minute walk, it was 4 Marlboro red.
My sister’s boyfriend introduced me to metal so something a bit different in that genre.
Back to school days and there are quite a few I could choose but went for Ultravox. Back then the TV news scared us ragged that the Russians were about to nuke us.
Even further back to primary school and one of the best bands of that era.
Finally! some Chas ‘n’ Dave. I actually used to go down to Margate with my whole family including nana Jackson in dad’s old Hillman Minx. Penny slots on the pier, Dreamland, ice cream and a sea full of raw sewage.
Time for bed, I’ve wasted a few hours of another wasted day listening to music.
