@ratherbeapear I did…very different to the music he was producing at the time…

[Simon @sagray]

@HoudiniBabe Agree - my “lesser known” could be an all time band fave. I’m not much good with underrated / less familiar

[Simon @sagray]

@ThomasSton83439 Slightly jealous as you have got some fun music to discover. Neil Hannon (Divine Comedy) guests on one track on that album. “The life pursuit” was the band album in parallel - “funny little frog” appears on both - hope you enjoy

June 4th - Familiar Artist / Unfamiliar Song

God Help The Girl - God Help The Girl

Struggled with this one…this is basically a Belle & Sebastian album but full of little gems.

@scottbpool69 @Lightning_Seeds Great album as well

[Simon @sagray]

Enjoying the emptiness of the early train. Sceptical when you read “the best historical fiction you’ll read this year” but - it’s the best book I’ve read in a while. Great characters, breakneck pace and a complex but compelling conclusion(s)

[Simon @sagray]

Excellent gig by Duke Special - both acts tonight just great songwriters / storytellers.

[Simon @sagray]

At the “old woollen” in Pudsey for Duke Special. First act was Oliver Cole who entertained with great songs and stories - well worth a listen.

June 3rd - remix

Fontaines D.C. - A Hero’s Death (soul wax remix)

“Sink as far down as you can be pulled up
Happiness really ain't all about luck
Let your demeanour be your deep down self
And don't sacrifice your life for your health
When you speak, speak sincere
And believe me friend, everyone will hear”

'The Tube Train' (1934) by Cyril Power

(The Metropolitan Museum of Art)

[Simon @sagray]

Finished this last night. Ok in a “one person army” type way. Twists aren’t twisty enough but the cast is good and his methods of getting people to talk rivals Jack Bauer.

June 2nd - Month

Evening in June - Van Morrison

“On an evening in June
It can get so sentimental
When I'm thinking of you
And I can't think of anything
Except being with you
When the summer is through
On an evening in June”

@juliepp1959 @Zelda_Fenwick Not sure on his daughter - saw an interesting documentary on him a few years ago, he struggled at times but seemed genuinely happy. I’ve never seen him live but looks like he puts on a good show
Loved this track https://t.co/KQdT1VZHSP

[Simon @sagray]

@juliepp1959 @Zelda_Fenwick Tempted to go see him live this summer. Still playing medium sized venues and I quite liked his last few albums. Funnily enough I can’t stand “Cars” as it got played to death back in the day
