Older and wiser. I began this blog in 2007 as a means to spout out about music that meant a lot to me. I felt it had run its course by 2010. In 2017 I thought about getting back in the saddle, but the inspiration never really came. And now it’s 2023. I’m no longer in Glasgow, but out in the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. One thing that hasn’t changed is that I’m still passionate about music. I still can’t be doing with genre boundaries or all that errant nonsense. If I feel it, it’s good. If I don’t it ain’t.

Hello there
I was desperately looking today to find the ABC figures from last Feb for music magazines and it appears you were the only place to carry them. Thanks so much. You’ve been an enormous help.

I have just finished reading your article about the Glasgow School of Art degree show 09. I just wanted to contact you to say thank you for your kind words about my work, Jennifer Fergie and my partners work, Kennith Creanor. We appreciated both being mentioned in yor review as we are greatful for any feedback.
Nice work on the ABCs figures – very helpful.

Thank you very much for your review on my album! I really appreciate that you went through all the songs and I’m trully flattered that you even mentioned Way Out West and Chicane in the same article…Great site!
Hey Dez,
I just stumbled across your site while looking into “Haz.” Totally agree about their mini LP by the way. Anyways, I started by reading about them and then read on for literally hours – found a lot of great new music (new to me). Anyways, I saw that the blog hasn’t been updated in quite a while. I was wondering if you would be interesting in having someone else take it over? E-mail me if you are. I would love to keep the legacy going :)
