How often she has gazed from castle windows

How often she has gazed from castle windows "Her days of precious freedom, forfeited long before. To live such fruitless years behind a guarded door. But those days will last no more." I once listened to the original Fairport Convention version of this Sandy Denny song on endless repeat for an entire weekend. I know that sounds like the typical thing for a sad little goth girl to do at the weekend - right up there with haunting the market stalls for rare Nick Cave dolls. Well, a girl can't spend [...]

7 Means of Movement: Sailing

7 Means of Movement: Sailing Fairport Convention, A Sailor's Life (alternate take). Clifford Jenkins, The Sailor's Alphabet. World Party, Ship of Fools. As dark night drew on, the sea roughened: larger waves swayed strong against the vessel's side. It was strange to reflect that blackness and water were round us, and to feel the ship ploughing straight on her pathless way, despite noise,

Time Themed

Time Themed Time seems to fly by these days and completely escape me. I have been out of work for so long now, it seems like an eternity. I have had to tap into my retirement money to pay my bills and it is not a good situation. The days flow by while I send my resume out to the world and spend an eternity on the phone with recruiters and prospective companies. I have had numerous interviews but with no job offer to follow. It is not easy to keep going with this situation. All I can do is hope something [...]

The Last Day of May

Ah, shit. Unfortunately, the quite fantastic Eighteenth Day of May have decided to call it a day, so to speak. They sent out a myspace bulletin saying very little, but that it was an amicable split and that they will be off to do new things. This is a right bloody shame as far as I'm concerned as I loved their album , released early last year, to the extent that I named it in my Top 10 of 2006 . I saw them play live at the ABC2 in Glasgow, [...]

No Title

No Title As time wore on through the late 60's and early 70's the amalgamation of popular styles laid the groundwork for what would become the folk-rock archetype. This combination of fuzzed electrics with the jangle of acoustic guitars would go on to influence generations to come; and while some leaned a bit more to the rock and others to the folk roots, it was the potent combination that ultimately stuck. These two releases echo both sides of this dynamic but both proved highly influential. Fairport [...]

Does Chaka make you horny? Cool.

Man, am I digging the Foley story! This is one of the more entertaining news cycles since Slick Willie was on the prowl. It’s like All The President’s Men or something in the way it keeps getting worse and worse day after day. I’d been scared that Joe Lunchbucket couldn’t follow the Abramoff stuff, but I could draw you pictures of the Foley antics and make you understand. I think Fat Bastard (Denny Hastert) is finished.
