A Childhood's End by Arthur C Clarke. Rewritten for the 21st Century As Karellen's vast interstellar ship approached Earth's orbit he peered once again into his viewscreen, his face one of perplexed horror. Switching off the display he sighed, "Fuck it, turn around, leave the daft cunts to it" Fin

I have large(ish) sideburns but I'm totally crap at trimming them and always make an uneven bollocks job. However I've realised, because I don't go out that often I can just shave them completely until a week before I have a night or day out. Hey presto, the've grown to the perfect thickness!

#ClocktoberMusic Funkadelic - Friday Night August 14th From their 'going all the way *then* backing off' second album comes this Hendrixy exultation of the perfect cosmic synchfonicity of good luck on a rarely falling date. A little lyrical nod to Sly Stone too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=dB5J...

#ClocktoberMusic Faust - Just A Second (Starts Like That) From Faust IV, this brief slab of exuberant krautfunk rumbles along happily for a minute or so before descending into a wonderful mess of burbling synths and electronic noises. Faust in a nutshell! m.youtube.com/watch?v=iOeo...

#ClocktoberMusic The Velvet Underground - After Hours Closing their third album with Mo Tucker's first solo lead vocal, this track soothes after the maelstrom of Murder Mystery, VU also adding lo-fi indie pop to the myriad of genres they helped invent across four albums m.youtube.com/watch?v=wpU4...

#ClocktoberMusic Skid Row - Midnight/Tornado The closing track on their first album betrays Sebastian Bach's more metal orientated roots, it's almost J Priest like. Tornado is an instrumental that serves as a segued coda to Midnight in the Sabbath two-parter tradition m.youtube.com/watch?v=wOpH...

Never mind how many hours of our lives we spend asleep, on the toilet or stuck in traffic jams. I wonder what the proportion of my time on this mortal coil is that I waste trying to convince my phone that it is perfectly upright despite its stubborn insistence on switching to landscape?

1967. The Who's first NYC show at The Village Theatre, with Richie Havens & The Blues Project also on the bill. Steve Katz of The Blues Project went on to co-found Blood, Sweat & Tears, before moving in production & then the 'business' end of the industry

#CocktoberMusic Julian Cope - Times Change From the 2018's Skellington 3. An ode to the mutable nature of life and contains the first hint that he might be starting to feel his age, "I used to think nothing of a twelve mile hike And I don't think much of it now" www.youtube.com/watch?v=MS98...

The very first British punk single to be released was released on 22 October 1976; "New Rose" by The Damned. It was recorded at Pathway Studios in London, recorded in 1 day, according to drummer Rat Scabies. On the B side was a speeded up version of the Beatles "Help". #TheDamned

The Velvet Underground and Nico in Scepter Studios, New York City, 1966.

Today's teatime tunes: none of yer Maharishi mumbo-jumbo for these San Fran garage punkers on this fuzz-heavy, bitingly satiric, spiritual bubble-bursting track from '66. None of them were called William Penn, of course.

#ClocktoberMusic Cheap Trick - Clock Strikes Ten This 'Sat'day night and it's time to party' anthem could have quite easily opened their second album In Color but Hello There already served that purpose, this track being relegated bizarrely to track 2 side 2. Hmm www.youtube.com/watch?v=T42Y...
