Was lucky enough to meet Danny Kelly, at The Lexington watching The Loft, c.2011. He was friendly and chatty, said @talkSPORT struggled to get listeners in Leeds & Newcastle bc local radio there was so strong. Radio, football & Indie, felt right in his wheelhouse. RIP

Never been a fan of Folk rock, Celtic soul or anything that gets played at celidhs. So no matter how many of you dig The Whole of the Moon, I’m not feeling it… but this overhaul by Watergirls (natch) into a dreamy club classic is transcendental. On DFA.

#NewOrder This early version of BLT features some great ambiguous Barney lyrics that get dropped, like….
“Keep your thoughts inside your head. You think too much and you’ll be dead”
Last week was the 40th anniversary of New Order’s Bizarre Love Triangle. Here’s a slightly wonky early version with ‘in progress’ lyrics, surreptitiously recorded at a sound check by the Promoter. I’ve grown to love this more than the finished article

Catching up on #totp ‘83 and six of the seven acts on the show had a number one during their career. Only The Cure missed out. Am including Marilyn’s contribution to Do They Know It’s Christmas to make this work

This No.1 was so of its time. You couldn’t avoid it in 1981. It’s My Party and I’ll Cry If I Want To was sung in school corridors, on buses, by ALL tradesmen, everywhere. Not heard in it decades. Used up a lifetimes allowance in 1981

OMD got good at this type of ethereal dreamy track. Would’ve better suited Paul Humphrey’s voice IMO

Here he is, Nick Heyward, centre stage at TOTP. On Wednesday he was set motionless at Hackney Empire while the place went mad to Geno

Rod Stewart’s redeeming feature is somehow he’s greatly admired by @jeremydeller
