I’ve said a few times that I don’t want this to turn into a weekly obituary round up but it’s impossible not to pause for thought when two characters of such towering influence leave the earth within days.
Thanks for linking to that demo of "Surf's Up". So beautiful - the octave jump on "domino" broke me completely. The Glastonbury set sounds amazing, although I do think Giles could have taken his hat off - maybe sightlines aren't really a thing at Glasto though.
That Glen Campbell clip is some Buddy Guy shit, and when i say Buddy Guy I mean John McLaughlin. Who knew he could do that?
You certainly will see me at the merch stall, although I think I've already got most things the Earlies put on CD or vynil (the instrumental Enemy Chorus, Chorlton+tW, the Os Mutantes tribute...). Haven't got Ride, mind you!

I'd forgotten about that Is Murantes tribute, I've still got 50 of them somewhere too
