I just saw P.T.O. written on something. I can't think of the last time I saw that instruction. It used to be something you'd see at least once a day.
Any good book about music should have you reaching to play the songs/albums and ultimately develop your appreciation.
This book about Talk Talk and Mark Hollis did just that. Highly recommended
We canNOT wait Graeme! 👏👍
I wrote a wee thing about finally seeing The B-52's live.

I emailed my local (Labour) MP twice politely asking that they consider adding their support to this motion. They responded yesterday to say that they had, and have also written to the chair of the EHRC outlining their concerns about the current code of practice.

I'll be @lthanwordsfest.bsky.social in Manchester on Saturday, Nov 14, to talk about Talk Talk and In Another World. Very pleased that it's a double header with @nigetassell.bsky.social, whose forthcoming Prefab Sprout book is high on my TBR pile. Should be lots to chat about...

Good to see this. I have a very soft spot for KW and World Party and wrote this when he died www.theguardian.com/music/2024/m...
'It’s the enveloping silence at the core of this immersive book that rings truest ... in sending us back to these timeless records, and slowing us down to their meticulous individual heartbeats, Thomson achieves exactly what he – and Hollis – set out to do.' 🙏🙏🙏

in midst of @graemethomson.bsky.social’s talk talk book. as others have said, it’s sent me back to the records and thus easily earnt its cost. a lot more than that though
