J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 9hIn this instance it would probably put me off. But then, there are bands touring with no original members and it doesn’t seem to stop people buying tickets (including me, sometimes). 010
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 12hI only ever listen to the podcast so really haven’t seen much of him. 000
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 13hDream on. Add the cost of travel to the shops, parking if you go by car, and the time it takes, and almost everyone would just pay the online 2%. 010
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 14hExactly what popped into my head! That was very odd behaviour, wasn’t it? 110
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 10/10/2026MOTD could do a segment every episode featuring this week’s playing-it-out-from-the-back disasters. It’s the most ridiculous thing. 010
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 10/10/2026At last. That international break seemed interminable. 110
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 10/10/2026I’ve always liked it a lot. I’m sure it will sound like sacrilege to many Genesis fans but I prefer it to the first two post-Pete albums. 010
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 10/10/2026That might be the only AEOC music I’ve ever heard. It must have been on a various artists compilation but I can’t think which. 100
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Some of the seats on the tube here in London have hardly any padding. I might start wearing my own too. 010
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Watching it made me realise how much I enjoyed his solo work. Some beautiful songs and always great musicians. 110
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026On iPlayer at the moment is ‘Sting/Police at the BBC’ which is a good watch. 220
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Thank you. So much music out there still to discover. 100
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Never even heard of that. Could you post the back cover? 110
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026I think I missed that one. It’s difficult to keep up with all his releases. 010
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026#NowPlaying They really did write very accessible songs, didn’t they? Easily my favourite Canterbury act. 030
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026He gets less impressive with every utterance, and I never even liked him in the first place. 010
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026That was one thing about REM, much as I loved the music I never thought their sleeves were up to much. 100
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026Eick really does have a very attractive tone. I could listen to him for hours. 000
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 09/10/2026#NowPlaying Easing gently into the day with this rather lovely album. 150
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Jazz has been on there for a long time. They put on some good gigs. Saw Arild Andersen there recently, they had Dave Douglas on too. But yes, it is odd to be seeing people like that in a clubhouse in deepest Surrey! 110
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Going to see them in November. First time. I only have the debut album. 210
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 08/10/2026If ever someone was over-compensating for his own tendencies … 020
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 08/10/2026#NowPlaying Much earlier Floyd. I bought my vinyl copy of this from a revolving Music For Pleasure rack in Woolies. 270
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 08/10/2026#NowPlaying According to the sticker on the back of this I should be able to hear improved sound quality even without an SACD player. I can’t, but then it always sounded pretty good anyway. 020
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 08/10/2026“Bolin takes a backseat” is hardly surprising as his arm was knackered from sticking a heroin-filled syringe in it. 020
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 08/10/2026It’s back up to 19/20C most of next week in London. We’re only two weeks from Halloween. I’m not supposed to be going out in a t-shirt! 010
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 08/10/2026Mama is maybe the only post-Duke track I really like. And you’re right about Illegal Alien. Terrible song, and surely even four decades ago someone must have advised them that the video was a very bad idea? 020
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 07/10/2026“A libretto of leitmotifs of lost innocence” … you’re a poet! :-) 010
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Pretty big venues for a tribute band, regardless of who his Dad is. We really are reaching that point when so many of our heroes of the ‘60s and ‘70s are not musically active any more, or, worse, are no longer with us. Pretty soon tributes will be all we have. 000
J Kelly @john63kelly.bsky.social · 07/10/2026There was the Connery/Shaw version in From Russia With Love, but I guess there was one slight difference. 110
