I agree. Whilst I love the energy and impressive skill of fast electric blues, and have plenty of time for what could be called “Mod jazz” of the 60s, all that avant-garde freeform jazz is just a cacophony of people showing off to me as a non muso. I am aware that some people refer to insane hi speed guitar as “left hand winking” (change a vowel early on if you will) but I do actually quite like that stuff within an electric blues context. Also love a bit of Gary Moore, Walter Trout etc. And on the opposite end of the spectrum, the mellow vibes of Eric Bibb, who strikes me as a thoroughly nice chap too.

Listening to (imo) one of the greatest psychedelic, prog-rock albums from the 2000’s. Still sounds as good and fresh as when it was first released. A shame the band split up…

Just finished watching Stay Close on Netflix. Binge watched the whole lot in 2 sittings, we couldn’t bring ourselves to turn it off unless it was ridiculous o’clock. Really gripping Brit grit.

    Added to my list too. This week’s Dexter tonight and maybe another episode of Witcher.

    DavecUK Yup! I’ve just finished Lost in Space too. Still can’t make up my mind if I liked it or not. I mean , she was no substitue for Zachary Smith.

    Watched the first 3 episodes of The Tourist with Jamie Dornan… very good and got a sort of Fargo vibe about it.

        Pompeyexile I mean , she was no substitue for Zachary Smith.

        A favourite from my youth…He was great, in fact he made that role because pretty much everyone world wide knew who Dr Zachary Smith was….

        I think the current lost in space and I still have a few episodes to go….is a little too woke, which makes it hard watching. Then again, I do like a good Jason Statham movie, so what do I know.

            We’re getting into the Witcher. Now on S1 episode 5 and it just keeps getting better. Need to keep your wits about you to cope with the time shifts though.

            I just finished watching Succession. Had read reviews of it over the last couple of years and didn’t think it would be my bag. But it is brilliant.

            Just watching the second episode of The Book Of Boba Fett. Enjoyable so far - not quite holding my attention like The Mandalorian did, however a solid start so far.

              I want to see that, is it on Netflix or Amazon Prime? “I want to rule with respect” I always felt sorry for Bobbafet in the first movies. An ignominious end

                  I vow to finish lost in space tonight, so that I can get on to The Witcher. The problem is there’s so many good YouTube channels I keep getting drawn into. Some of my favourites.

                    2022 has certainly started with a bang here so not really much time to watch anything and certainly nothing that requires attention to follow.

                    I’ve been listening to a lot of Snarky Puppy and Esbjorn Svensson Trio when working.

                    We have just started watching Ozark. We are on S1, Ep4. It started off well and is a little dragging / boring already. We are hoping it’s going to get better.

                      LMSC - Ozark is excellent. Keep watching!

                      I’m on Money Heist S2 E3, total binge watching! - thanks for the recommendation. The translation from Spanish to English is a bit iffy, but this is a well known Netflix problem.

                          MediumRoastSteam Sure. Will do.

                          Money Heist, that’s absolutely brilliant. Insane, provided we don’t think too much certain unrealistic aspects. Enjoy it mate.
