Help! The term ‘Britpop’ is said to have been coined by Stuart Maconie in ‘Select’ in April 1993. It’s online here selectmagazinescans.monkeon.co.uk?p=471
I can’t find the word ‘Britpop’ - have I missed it? Have I got the wrong piece?
Guess we need you all to do this, what with our show having the terribly naughty word ‘Hell’ in its title.
Lovely to be on this @forwardprizes.bsky.social longlist with many friends. thankyou judges 💙

"We All Stand Together" is one of the dozen or so best melodies of the last eighty years, and the performative distaste for it just shows how people care more for perceptions of coolness than for musical quality.
Today Writer and storyteller JOHN OSBORNE gives us the five tracks he will meet in Hell! He also tries to twist some elements of hell into a positive, and even pays Alex a compliment- which is likely the reason he was so late in posting this! The link to listen is in the bio.
IT'S WEDNESDAY!

It's Paul McCartney's birthday. You've probably noticed. So here's your semi-regular reminder that We All Stand Together is an utterly charming and lovely piece of music.

Bluesky says this label will leave in 22 days, so this seems like a punishment for some undisclosed bad behavior.
