Excellent outing to Birmingham uni to deliver an oral history workshop and learn more about the East in West Vinyl Archive. Thousands of South Asian records salvaged from the Oriental Star Agencies record shop before it closed down: eastinwest.trueformprojects.com

Great weekend delivering oral history training for the @1in12club.bsky.social as part of Bradford City of Culture 25. Really lovely people and an important project. Got tipped off to visit the Kunafa Tea restaurant for delicious Syrian food too.

Carole King has got a cracking voice but there's definitely some autotune being chucked into the mix.

The last surviving member of The Band has passed away. Garth Hudson was 87. Keep playing their tunes; they'll never go away.

#nowspinning whatever the weather - whatever the weather (Loraine James) I love lots of this album and the concept of it all. I think she's amazing but it's quite challenging in parts and I need to listen to it more! Definitely not bored of it yet though and looking forward to the follow up.

#Uncooltwo50 Ride - Vapour Trail (1990) I still love the albums Nowhere and Going Blank Again. Both so uplifting. If 'cool your boots' had been a single I would have chosen that. This is such a powerful track - the guitars, pounding drums and strings coda are gorgeous. youtu.be/pVhNi5cU8mo?...

#uncooltwo50 Teenage Fanclub - Star Sign (1991) I think 1991 is my favourite year for the pop music of my youth. So many astounding releases. Teenage Fanclub exemplified the times. So melodic and gentle but with raucous guitars. youtu.be/KLIE9NmviSQ?...

#uncooltwo50 REM - (Don't go back to) Rockville (1984) Maybe my favourite song by them. Love some of the early stuff on Murmur and Reckoning when they were finding their feet. Their success was well deserved. I'd like to think they won't ever do a hideous comeback tour. youtu.be/6fXCjSgItgw?...
