Digging this new tune by our pal @peterbruntnell previewing the album Houdini and the Sucker Punch, out on Oct 4th. And I wouldn’t be a proper The Sound Lounge patron if I didn’t mention Peter’s gig with his band at the SL on Sat Dec 14th, can’t wait! open.spotify.com/track/5nHPiL06…

Always a thrill to write liner notes for The Rolling Stones this time for Welcome To Shepherd's Bush, out Dec 6 + featuring the brilliant club date I saw in '99. "Twenty-five years later, the crossfire hurricane that blew across London that night roars again" bit.ly/3C3vvVu

Indebted to BBC One 1pm TV report on Quincy Jones' sad passing for revealing that Off The Wall made Michael Jackson a star. I mean, who remembers any of his previous solo smash hits or his years with the world-conquering Jackson 5?😠

OK, joke's over. Like many friends and colleagues, I've concluded that I can't, in all conscience, continue to endorse a platform that has become so dark and poisonous. I'll be closing this account soon but you'll still find me on IG (and maybe elsewhere before long!) ♥️😢👋
