John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 23/09/2026Clearly another craven attempt to brown-nose and curry favour with ‘Queen’ Camilla. (See also his spirited campaign of attacks on her step-daughter-in-law.) Is it too much to hope that we actually hear you challenge his motives in the podcast? 010
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 22/09/2026Marvellous storytelling from @asifkapadia.bsky.social Quite a mantle to take up, but he did so in style, giving the series a perfect send-off. #70UP 081
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 15/09/2026I’m sure I say this every seven years, but the UP series is bloody brilliant TV. Poignant, uplifting and staggering in its ambition. We won’t see its like again. #70UP 0293
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 11/09/2026Definitely. The David Kahne CD single remixes are worth seeking out. The second one is particularly beautiful - and heartbreaking. 110
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 11/09/2026I love the atmosphere and mood of From a Lover… but that line makes no sense whatsoever. It doesn’t even have the stoned hippy logic of the ‘movement’ line from Hey Jude. 110
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 29/08/2026Can’t quite make it back from my holidays on time - but I look forward to reading the thoughts of the gang. 120
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 10/08/2026I’m not sure - the rest of the leaflet makes it look like a rebranded Beefeater. The pub’s actually a fair distance away. 010
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 10/08/2026Flyer through the door today. On the basis of this ad, you couldn’t pay me enough to visit your restaurant… 450
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 05/08/2026Happy Revolver Day to those who celebrate! #thebeatles #revolver 030
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 26/07/2026Today’s viewing: the anthology before the Anthology. Glad I kept that old VHS player… #thebeatles #VHS 040
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Yes, thanks all, and thanks - as always - to @johnp69.bsky.social for bringing us together again. #harddays26 180
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 25/07/2026You Can’t Do That is - in the parlance of the young folk - a true banger. A local pub band used to have this as a regular in their set - it always went down a storm. #harddays26 070
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 25/07/2026I absolutely love Things We Said Today. A Macca songwriting highlight on a Lennon-dominated album, though I’ve never been entirely sold on the double-tracked vocal. #harddays26 1120
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 25/07/2026Tell Me Why - another song that would have been a significant hit for a lesser band than The Beatles: here it’s another (great) also-ran. #harddays26 050
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 25/07/2026And I Love Her. Top drawer stuff; George really should have got a writing credit on this one. #harddays26 050
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 25/07/2026I Should Have Known Better is one of the few songs I’ve sung live. I think John did it better. #harddays26 040
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026I don’t dislike Ripples… but it doesn’t do as much for me as the other tracks on the album. 100
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Anybody that struggles with Paul’s voice on this album hasn’t hung out with enough octogenarians. He’s a bloody marvel. 040
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Momma Gets By - A song that’s got under my skin more and more as the weeks have gone by. ‘She loves him…’ Yep. Got me again, Macca. 😭 #dungeonlane 170
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Salesman Saint - Bloody love Giles Martin’s 40s-style arrangement on this one. It elevates a good track into something a bit special. #dungeonlane 160
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026First Star of the Night - It’s sweet, isn’t it? ‘And I know my little world is still alright…’ It’s what you need to hear and feel every now and then. Clever old Macca. #dungeonlane 181
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Life Can Be Hard - Can’t stop whistling this one. If this wasn’t originally intended for the stage version of It’s A Wonderful Life, I’m George Bailey. #dungeonlane 040
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Home To Us - Enjoy this one more on every play. It’s Paul McCartney. It’s Ringo Starr. It’s got a great guitar solo. Puts a smile on my face every time I play it. #dungeonlane 190
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Never Know - An early favourite. Love the Atom Heart Morher-era backing vocals. Actually, I love everything about this track one. Quintessential Macca. #dungeonlane 030
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Come Inside - Not the album highlight, but a great side opener and a song begging to be added to the live setlist. #dungeonlane 130
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026We Two - Oddly, this seems to be the least-loved song on the album, but I really can’t get enough of it. Deceptively simple, classic Macca. Give me more of that four-track, lads! #dungeonlane 040
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Down South - Solid song, but one middle-eight short of a cracker. (That absence hasn’t stopped me humming it most of today.) #dungeonlane 140
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Mountain Top - Love this. Almost 60 years on from Pepper, Macca continues to embrace the psychedelic. Some marvellous moments here, even if I can’t understand what Nancy says at the end… #dungeonlane 040
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Ripples in a Pond - Possibly my least favourite song from the album, but no skipper, and still quite the earworm. #dungeonlane 130
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Days We Left Behind - The lead single, with good reason. Beautiful, classic Macca: both intensely personal and universal. #dungeonlane 180
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026A tempo-shift would help. I like the song, but it could do with a boost. 010
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026Lost Horizon - Getting Flaming Pie era vibes from this one. Cracking track. Can imagine this one being knocked out at a higher tempo by the Junior’s Farm-era Wings. #dungeonlane 060
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 20/06/2026As You Lie There - The best Macca album opener since My Brave Face. And it might well be better than that. #dungeonlane 030

John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 29/05/2026When you wake up at 3.30am like a kid on Christmas Day and end up streaming the new Macca album on repeat… (it doesn’t disappoint!) #paulmccartney 010
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 24/05/2026I have cancelled orders twice at the official store. It’s a minor irritation, but they were very efficient. I really don’t like the staggering of the variants, but there are ways to get what you want if you can face cancelling and reordering. 020
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 24/05/2026I understand all the frustrations, but I’m also enjoying picking and choosing which versions to get. I’m just glad I’m not a total completist… that way lies madness and financial ruin! 130
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Short, but sweet. Another great Ringo/T-Bone collab. I’ll be spinning it again this weekend. Thanks again to you all for your company and, as always, @johnp69.bsky.social for organising. See you shortly on Dungeon Lane? #longlongroad 280
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 23/05/2026Long Long Road - another Ringo co-write that holds its own with the other tracks on the album. A fine album closer. #longlongroad 060
John Scott @winstonscott.bsky.social · 23/05/2026She’s Gone - late night in the country dive bar vibes on this one. #longlongroad 060
