Tuesday Ten: 310: Tracks of the Month (August/September 1997)
A double dose of 1997 this month, after Infest (and of course the writing of Memory of a Festival: 028 that followed it) took up my time at the end of August.

Tuesday Ten: 297: The Monster Mash
What’s that coming over the hill? This week, it really is a monster (or mythical creature). Ten of them, in fact.

This has been a quiet year.
/Tuesday Ten/268/Notable People in Song
I’ve mentioned before that I have a notes file (saved in multiple locations) that I’ve used since I started this Tuesday Ten series back in 2007. As a result, I have ideas and concepts for lists that have languished half-completed for years, while others get thought of and posted within weeks. I guess it is […]

Although not unexpected, perhaps, with the music that I listen to, it proved somewhat difficult to find that many songs that cast religion in a positive light. Still, I did find the […]
/Tuesday Ten/054/The London Astoria
A friends’ posting of this link over the weekend provided me inspiration for the subject of this week’s Tuesday Ten.
Tuesday Ten: 040: In All Languages
Loosely inspired by other silly posts comparing Euro 2008 to other things (the European Championships of Beer being the best I've seen so far), I'm turning my attention this week to the more international corners of my music collection – and in particular, bands that sing in other languages than English, and indeed perhaps their […]
Tuesday Ten: 024: Changing Direction
Many bands change their output over time, often as a concious decision to evolve their sound. Sometimes it is an incremental process, and is often welcomed. Playlists: Spotify Then again, there are then times when a more drastic move in style is greeting with heresy by the fans. I’ve seen some of my favourite bands […]
