The Professor



If anyone wants cheering up, listen to a bit of Prof Green his lyrics are too witty and hit beats infectious, this first album has got me bobbing my head all day.

Laura Love



Last night I went to see Laura Marling on her UK cathedral tour, entitled When the Bell Tolls.
Westminster Central Hall "is not actually a cathedral", but as a functioning Methodist church, there was no alcohol served at the bar ( I had a diet coke and  bag of chips!), the ceilings were high and the acoustics amazing!
She had a lovely band of banjo. cello playing types, and Laura herself flitted between two acoustic guitars and some fantastic whistling!
She played all her great songs Sofia, Night Terror and  Goodbye England (Covered in Snow)which were all hauntingly beautiful, it was hairs on the back of the neck stuff especially as the themes of her songs tend to be love, with rhetoric about religion. Plus I got to go with my lovely friend Miller. When we left Big Ben was just chiming ten and the Abbey opposite was all lit up, it felt really special and beautiful, a great experience, very different from the usual gigs I go to!

Cover Up







Cover corner!

Hearing a song done is a completely different way lets me appreciate peoples creativity, personal style and the fluidity of tastes and good work.

Friday Fancy



If that is not happy thought enough then here is a bit of The Cardigans, mainly because Nina Persson is a mega babe and my 90s pin up!


Other recording artists that are getting some airtime in my office this Friday include The Cure, Iggy Pop & The Stooges, The Distillers & Louis Prima.

What is on your happy playlist at the moment & indeed why?

Have a lovely weekend x
