    The Album Review Club - Week #191 (page 1286) - Harlequin Dream - Boy & Bear

    Good evening my mancunian chums. Back from a trip home and amazing no rain!...and save from the result from the other side of the Atlantic a great week and some great football results. Those European nights under the lights at Anfield! and doing a bit of remiscing. After the match taking my son...

    If you are doing that I would hope you are using "incognito mode" so they cannot see what you are using online to help

    Kamala Harris

    So can you tell me where I fit into this group identity, leftist group, echo chamber? Being one of the few "dippers" on here and so very often not sharing the views of many here? You do seem to keep on falling for the line that Kamala/The Dems/ most of those on here are "looney...

    Liverpool Thread | 2024/25

    I suspect its because that apart from the game against the Rags, we haven't actually blown teams away. All the games have been close and have been a bit nervy near the end. The Chelsea game and Sundays draw were the only games against teams that would or should be near the top at the end of the...

    I don't know if I am biased against this album artist courtesy of John Cusack, as every time I think of it I automatically think..."Elliott!!! Elliott is a fat kid with glasses who eats paste" Another tough week for me I'm afraid. Once again I simply didn't get on with this offering and it...

    President Trump

    And to my mind that short sentence shows how much of the Kool Aid you have swallowed. To think that the Dems are liberal or left is so way off the mark and just repeats the MAGA mantra. The Dems are more like Tories in the UK with MAGA being UKIP. Which explains the Trump/Farage bromance. And...

    President Trump

    I do actually flick around and watch both. As you suggest they are both as bad/partisan as each other...and as you say both, looking at it from over this side of the pond, comical in the way that they present themselves as news and trying to be "fair and balanced". But it is worth it for the...

    I don't mind the odd bit of "folkier" as I do have a couple of Michelle Shocked/Martin Stephenson albums and been to see both a few times. So I'm not totally averse to something a little slower and paired back. It was just a first listen though so I have time to let it wash over me more to see...

    The Album Review Club - Week #191 (page 1286) - Harlequin Dream - Boy & Bear

    I'm afraid, that was my view after a first listen today in the car. I did get the image of another contributor from a few albums back. the idea of sitting down with a whisky at night to truly appreciate this. Another image being that this would be put on in the background of some "oh so cool"...

    President Trump

    Was watching Fox earlier today (for the comedy value) and they were doing their usual schtick. The line was having a go at the Harris campaign for being "so negative" and saying , "is that all they have", before 2-3 sentences later the speaker made a comment about "Kamala's googly eyes". Of...

    Apologies for the late response. Once again I start doing something on a day off and get sidetracked by colleagues referring work issues to me. As I said after my first listen and has been reiterated by so many. A great first album, showing their yourthful exuberance. Energetic and exciting in...

    The Album Review Club - Week #191 (page 1286) - Harlequin Dream - Boy & Bear

    Like all those this side of the pond I had heard "Alright" but had never bothered listening to a whole album. So it went on my usual commute listening. I just got youth, energy, fun out of it. Yes, the main single was overplayed but i still see it as a fun catchy little ditty. I was quite...

    Careful who you give a lift to

    Not long after moving to my village I was heading in to collect the wife from a works do. I got flagged down by some old boy farmer standing in the middle of the street. Stopping I went to put the window down and by the time I had he had opened the passenger door and climbed in telling me he...

    Three listens in and I'm am so glad I have them done and can move on to listen to something decent! As a few have said, this gets better with a couple of listens. I did indeed find that. First listen I saw absolutely nothing good to say about this. It just washed over me and was instantly...
