Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 13/11/2025Any birders on here recognise this bird from the (admittedly) crap photo? I reckon it’s an Egret, either Cattle or Little, never seen one in Northumberland before. 000
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 13/08/2025My new favourite band, superb alt- country/folk vibes, highly recommended! 010

Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 19/07/2025Can’t recommend this one highly enough, brilliant tunes with superb lyrics by Pete’s mate Clive James (yes, that one….) 000
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 06/07/2025Artists/ bands with most albums in my collection; Bevis Frond/ Dylan/ Neil Young/ Robyn Hitchcock/ REM/ The Fall/ Hawkwind. 020
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 28/06/2025Only just caught up with this though it was released in April, album of the year for me, so far. Top notch songs superbly played. If you like GramParsons/ Burrito Brothers, Gene Clark etc, do yourself a favour and check it out! 010
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 27/06/2025Excellent second album from band best known for “that” hit single… yes… you know the one… Some superb tunes on here. 130
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 14/06/2025Tonight’s tunes, one for the “ wish I had a Time Machine” list, absolutely staggering set. 😍😍 010
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 30/05/2025Not played this one in donkeys years,for me the best of the mod revival bands… actually, calling them mod revival cheapens them … it’s just a fucken great rock n roll record!! 140
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 27/05/2025A ghostly apparition is hovering outside the bathroom window… 010
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 23/04/2025I’m becoming slightly obsessed with this band, their album sleeves are largely pretty awful but… oh man… the music is wonderful, a cocktail of psychedelia, folk rock and even a touch of prog here and there. Highly recommended…. 020
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 20/04/2025Albums with rubbish covers that are actually incredible… anyone remember this band? 000

Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 27/03/2025Kicking off this evening’s tunes with this beauty, the title track always reminds me a bit of Neil Young circa “On the beach”, no bad thing Imo. 010
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 25/03/2025The local badgers appear to have struck a coal seam! Pixie’s not sure what to make of this…. 010
Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 12/03/2025Tonight’s tunes: excellent melodic psych/ prog from ‘73, supported Led Zeppelin, Mott etc back in the day, tipped for success but never quite made it, Highly recommended! 010

Ed Metcalf @edmet.bsky.social · 17/01/2025Haven’t played this in ages, for me the greatest ever prog album, Peter Hammils’s gorgeous melodies fight to be heard over the insane racket made by the rest of the band. Truly,a masterpiece! 110
