What I'm listening to/Watching at the moment

It’s the one about the Spaceman came travelling.

The family call me a grumpy old git, they even gave me the tee shirt once, perhaps they have a point.

Just put the Sam Fender album ‘Hypersonic Missiles’ on to get a break from the Christmas Music.
This Geordie lad is going to go far! Best new music I’ve heard in a very long time. I’m a child of the 80’s and this just takes me back to that time. One hell of a song writer, power, emotion, he’s got the lot. He’s going to go Supernova soon - already started, you heard it here first.

Just been listening to a marvellous blues singer called Kyla Brox. Grew up listening mainly to rock which was influenced by my older brother who listened to Floyd, Purple, Cream etc. My favourite band as a teenager in the 70’s was Be-Bop Deluxe with Bill Nelson writer, lead singer and brilliant axeman. But over the years my taste has grown and I like many different styles and artists. At present my go to is blues. Joe Bonamassa, Larry McCray, Joanne Shaw Taylor, Beth Hart, Walter Trout, Grainne Duffy, Ronnie Baker Brooks, Leslie West ,the list is endless.

But, as it’s Christmas day, there will be the Ratpack, Buble and the like on. In fact, even some of the80’s and 90’s Christmas Classics… Driving home for Christmas by Chris Rea being one of my all time favourites.

Have been binge watching Money Heist during the last 2 weeks. We are on S4, Ep 1. Amazing.

We thought Money Heist was brilliant…Well over the top, lots of clever nutty unbelievable ideas, but escapeism at its best.

Waiting for the final season of Ozark with anticipation and at the moment enjoying the new season of Dexter.

Pompeyexile We have another 3 episodes left on season 5. We keep our mind out while watching box sets like this.

Eric Clapton’s The Lady in the Balcony: Lockdown Sessions,the best sounding album from Eric after Unplugged ’92 :)

Live - Throwing Copper

Second year of not going out to a rock band on NYE. Wife had a friend over last night, so watched Graham Norton and then Jools Holland, Once upon time jools used to have some good music, not any more. Once everyone had gone to bed had to put the headphones on and listen to a bit of Gary Moore - Out In The Fields Album….Was sorted for bed after that.

DavecUK Did anyone watch Squid Games on Netflix.

I watched the first episode and decided it wasn’t for me. OTOH just watched the whole 10 episodes of ‘The Brink’ and loved it! It’s been around for some time but I’ve only just discovered it. Also started ‘Witcher’ looks promising…

DavecUK We really like Squid Games although wasn’t too sure about the ending. Watched another Korean jobby called Hellbound, which I really liked too.
