Here's a montage of extracts from "Attuned to the Rainbow Faults", my sixth Boom Logistics release. The album was recorded between 2017 and 2021 and features a host of brilliant players to whom I'm indebted. https://t.co/fwfH1YQRSk

'Trapped in the Sky', the first episode of Thunderbirds, was originally broadcast in selected ITV regions on this day in 1965.

@progrocksongs If memory serves - and it's a *long* time ago - in the early 80s Andy used to sit in with a jazz fusion group called Free Parking at a weekly Sunday residency at a pub in Preston, Lancs (UK). Amazing to see him up close like that!

Happy 73rd birthday to Andy Ward of Camel!

Here's another folk song I've arranged for intermediate #classicalguitar quartet - a somewhat lugubrious take on "Matty Groves": https://t.co/NdqUSV1LSt

Another little Bach chorale arranged for #clasicalguitar quartet, "Das walt' Gott Vater und Gott Sohn". With harmonic analysis, of course! https://t.co/sF9uyuzc2Y

[DGMFS @DGMFS1]

Er, wrong answer.

An especially brilliant episode of the Freak Zone from @StuartMaconie and @BBC6Music, exploring the relationship between C20th classical music and pop/rock, feat a great interview with @elizabethalker: https://t.co/upmk0T9CZZ (Already ordered Elizabeth's book!)
