Sinister: 10 MacArthur Park

[P F]

It is true, what Sister Disco said. The programme was
on, today! I remembered just in time.

I found Murdoch to be a better interviewee, a much
better one, than most of those who appear on, or in,
this slot. He seemed more intelligent, or to have more
thoughts in his head on which to draw. He seemed, I
mean, to have something to say about music - this
music, that he asked them to play - and its
connections with (his) life.

The music was good also. I don't need to hear that
version of 'A New England' again, now, as against
once, when I had never heard it, but still, it is
good. He liked the fact that she wrote new verses.
Surprisingly, he didn't quite seem to know that Bragg
was involved in the rewrite, so that the cover was
not, I think, cheeky but authorized.

I was surprised how good the second track was. Julie
Driscoll sounded like she was going to be boring, but
actually she sounded like a 1960s Isobel Campbell,
with a singing voice, of some kind, singing a Murdoch
lyric, to a Belle and Sebastian soul-music backing. In
fact, forget the Campbell bit, a blue herring. She
sounded like Petula Clark singing with Belle &
Sebastian? Really, it was fine. I think Cousin
Clubnight has probably heard it all before, in the
Saracen Head.

I have found my old books for Advanced Dungeons and
Dragons. But don't fret, I am not going to play it
with you. I have found some DUNGEON FLOOR PLANS also.
They let you go on a boat, with added Realism. I am
going to tell Tom Ewing, an internet supremo, about it
all.

Ally 96 has started a band, with an electric guitar.
That's what I heard.
