Fiercely articulate words from @theanchoress.bsky.social in October's issue of Record Collector magazine. Like @lizpelly.bsky.social, she writes with erudition and authority on the threat of #AI to #creativity in general and music in particular. We must all take notice.

Having recently watched both #EverbodysFine and #SilverLiningsPlaybook I'm reminded that the reasons for #RobertDeNiro being rightly recognised as one of the greats go well beyond the huge films that headline his career.

Themes for Great Cities and Small Hours are (alongside Rip It Up & Start Again) amongst the very best music books I've ever read. Congrats on a career to be proud of.

Boriswave anyone? Even the Tories acknowledge the real immigration explosion came post Brexit directly from his policy. It's an inconvenient truth though when the small boat stories make better Express/Mail/Torygraph copy.

Unhinged stuff. Hard to imagine anywhere would give Truss any sort of serious attention however she seems to spend most of her time in the US these days where some applaud and respect her. Who'd have thought?

Agreed. That's shocking. I am still enveloped by Small Changes but excited to hear that there's more to come despite his horrible situation. All power to him for going public especially given his motivation for doing so.

Tice will no doubt encourage OFCOM to investigate Sky News with the same rigour as it pursues GB News, his party leader's employer. Oh, hang on.

Astonishing that they aren't more widely appreciated. I always point people to 'Wiser' and its video as the place for discovery, knowing that they'll find BRLD and explode!

The most striking scene of a classic film

That was some queue. I wasn't expecting it. Good news for British film that the Fest is so successful I guess.

Fantastic. Mr Simon at his best.

Spooky timing. I watched 'The Insider' at the weekend. The journalistic commitment of the network and the show in supporting #JeffreyWigand in exposing #bigtobacco was tested in the 90s. Looks like today it fails any such test.

Still great after all these years.

#Canada is an impressive country and #Canadians are impressive people. Carney eloquently represents both.

#alPacino is very unassuming ("what do I know that I can sit with a pipe and expound on? I'm not Socrates") but his book is one of the best I've read for a v long time. Far more than just an #actor #biography, it presents genuine #wisdom from a life well lived.

Still sounds great and distinctive even today.

Exactly that. It's what you hear from multiple ex BBC journos who tired of having to hava a Reform response 'for balance' to the pont where the very policy created imbalance.

The #zuckerburg machine agrees to pay billions and to curb its addictive product but admits no wrongdoing. A peculiarity of #USlaw I guess but everyone gets what this really says about #Meta and #facebook.

Excellent film and one that should be far more recognised within De Niro's stellar filmography.

Best film ever made. Simple as that imo.

For me, the most depressing finding made by @iandunt.bsky.social in his excellent book is that our system of Govt is "unserious." It's a small word but a massive failure. The sheer scale of institutional absurdity and short termism should scream for people with a mindset that's the very opposite.

Bang on. A precious band for decades. Horrible news.

Truly horrible news. First Glen Hansard and now JD - a dreadfully grim few days.

Horrible news. John was a huge part of a great band for decades and, as you say, one whose new album showed them bang on form.

The arrival of a new @trashcansinatras.bsky.social album has been something to celebrate for the last 36 years. Still precious right now.

Cue Infantile-o accusing UEFA of standing in the way of smaller associations' oppprtunity to 'realise the benefits of commercial opportunities'; the greedy haves v the unfortunate have-nots argument, aka Blatter's bullshite.

Truly awful news about #glenhansard. He was a true artist - always surprising, challenging and real. Nothing illustrates it better than this imo - a beautiful song, performance and intro. The audience is rapt as they always were. RIP. youtu.be/G6DHDNIL5LA?...

The word Masterpiece is very over used but it's appropriate here for sure.

He was extremely proper and dignified.

In many ways the LIBOR 'rigging' cases represented a #miscarriageofjustice of #postofficehorizon proportions and yet far less has been said about them. @andyverity.bsky.social has therefore done us all a big favour with his fine book/podcast. Proof that #investigativejournalism is ever more vital.

Agreed - a really evenly balanced tussle between equals. Well played from an Englishman.

Good game - a real battle. Once again, the Norway team/squad/fans were a real credit to their country. We England fans will enjoy the result but feel huge respect for the opposition.

Lessons in longevity tonight from #davidgray and @divinecomedyhq.bsky.social at Dreamland #margate. Two artists who follow their muse, both supported by audiences glad that they do.

Of all the words written about the impact of #streaming on music, these five from #Spotify founder Daniel Ek are the most telling imo - "Our only competitor is silence." So speaks the maker of an engagement machine that has no interest in #music or the people who make it.

On our trip around rural Ireland, much of my reading has been this. @fotoole.bsky.social is the very best of guides; his writing is always incisive but in this book it's frequently revelatory too. Fantastic.

It is but - as ever - it's spectacularly backfiring because more people are deciding to read it. Once you have, it's very hard not to loathe Zuckerburg and his cronies at which point many of us walk away from their products.

Pretty much anything by the Heptones atm.

Netflix often goes overboard in claims for its own productions, screaming that they're unmissable when they're really not. In the case of Legends though, all the hype and more is well deserved imo.

Dead right. I wrote this for exactly that reason (and also as an excuse to watch all of his 70 odd films obvs)
