Imagine having been alive since Dickens was a young man, but all that time AS A TORTOISE. You have lived through the entire history of football and cinema but never been to a game, or a film. You were in your 150s when the first Nando's opened but you've never been in a branch.

Remembering Hopeton Lewis who was born on this day in 1947. 60 years ago in the Federal studio Hopeton with Lynn Taitt & The Jets helped shape the new sound of Rock Steady. The first 7" released from those sessions was Sounds & Pressure. youtu.be/-F5WL0xuhuE?... #reggae #reggaesky #vinyl #music

7" of Hopeton Lewis - Sounds And Pressure on Blue Beat label. The label credits Buster All Stars and also credits Prince Buster as writer and producer. This is incorrect. It was written by Hopeton Lewis. It was recorded at the Federal Studio and produced by Sam Mitchell and Keith Scott. It was originally released in Jamaica on the Merritone label in November 1966 with the correct credits. This Blue Beat release came out in the UK in 1967 with the incorrect credits.

NASA picture of the day today is a real 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿beauty! This is a composite image of the ~5000yo Callanish Stones on the Isle of Lewis. The amazing Giuseppe Petricca has only gone and photographed the Sun at noon there, every few days, for a whole year. #Dedication 🔭🧪👌 ℹ️: science.nasa.gov/image-articl...

The imposing Callanish Stones stand talk with their shadows spanning out across the glass. It's a super clear sky, but looks cold. Above the central stone is a strange figure-of-8 shape of dots. This is the location of the Sun, at noon, on various different days across the year.

Some people sitting around a table near me in a cafe are talking to each other at a volume I would use if I was trying to get someone’s attention outside the building… and across the street. But I did get the last Portuguese custard tart so I’m happy with that.
