Spent a lot of the weekend listening to "Diane" by Husker Du, still perhaps the most shocking record I can think of: there's something so unrelentingly direct in it's sheer malevolence....
Today has been full of music actually, from The Boy Least Likely To (new single out today!!!) to "Long Red" by Mountain, which has powered to the top of my playlist of 70's rock (Yes, I have one of those... *ashamed*)
Actually, talking about The Boy Least Likely To...., saw them last week at the Cobden Club over in Westbourne Park: they were absolutely amazing. So confident and assured, focused, tight, you name it, they had it all. But the most incredible thing for me was.... it was only their second ever gig! Whenever and wherever the next one is; I implore you to go and see 'em.

Nostalgia? You Bet. Old Cassette tapes.

Today is a sad day.

RIP Ivan Noble.
