Le Noise and counting the days...

I have now added a piece on Neil Young's album to the review section - here. The 'deluxe' vinyl version is overpriced, but very nicely done:  heavy vinyl, heavy card, gatefold, lyric sheet.  You know it makes sense...

Just a week and a half to go before I leave the civil service.  Can't resist quoting from a lovely farewell message from an old colleague:

'...as a completely green asylum caseworker in (if memory serves) 1992, I was hugely impressed to see my then leader (i.e. you) propping up the bar at the Brixton Academy at a David Byrne gig.'

It's those sorts of things that really matter...I have standards to live up to.
