    Some excellent choices there Grant.

    I haven't played any Buffy Sainte Marie for a long time. Time to put that right!

    I saw her perform in Manchester way back in the early '70s.

    Leonard Cohen - 'Old Ideas'



    Bought out of a sense of completion, I can't get on with this disc. Cohen is not singing, he's not even crooning - he's just talking!

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    It is quite a weird one, I think it was the beginning of Rob Calvert's involvement and ultimately becoming the lead singer of Hawkwind. Rather sadly he passed away at only 43 years, he was a very talented writer, poet, and musician who collaborated with some quite well known people, including Brian Eno, Viv Stanshall, Michael Moorcock to name a few as well as fronting Hawkwind. He also suffered greatly from bi-polar disorder, and was sectioned at one time, he was reported as being challenging to work with. I saw him perform several times with Hawkwind and he was a fantastic, and somewhat eccentric front-man, just perfect for the band.

    I used to have a copy, as well as "Lucky Leif and the Longships", based on the idea that the Americas were discovered some 500 years before Columbus, by a Dane(?) called Lief Erikson.



    Again it was of it's time and I quickly tired of it.

    You seem to have a short musical attention span Barry, that’s not a criticism just an observation, or maybe I’ve got it wrong
