Across the border

Posted on May 16, 2023 by onedeckpete

We’ve had these plants in the soil for a year and a bit now and we are sure these are the penstemons we bought from QVC. Nothing happened last year and we were going to give up on them it now looks like they’re starting to give us a bit of a show. Here’s more about penstemons here. We’ve a few more of them dotted around the garden so hoping they all start taking off soon.

Here’s two tunes off the radio today. The first was heard on the excellent This is a music show (above) and it’s by Jackie Wilson and called You bought about a change in me and we don’t think we’ve ever heard it before even though it’s a bit of a classic and the B side of Reet Petite from a few years ago. It’s a tune! Cheers Your Host for playing it on the show. He’s right what he said that it put him in mind of The Supremes My world is empty without you.

And here’s something we’ve never heard before Sons of the Pioneers – Old Man Atom. Thanks to Justin Patrick Moore for linking us up to the Amsterdam Radio Collection (1991) on archive.org here. The track was played well speeded up on Maurice Di’s Happy Dirge Day recording at 19 minutes in. Crazy stuff!

And back to the garden, albeit the mad bit down the bottom, we’ve no idea what this wild plant is but it’s looking great and we reckon it came in on one of the Bees Bombs we got years ago or failing that a result of anarchic gardening, the scattering of seed from a random packet and hoping for the best.

Do not buy this album as it has no commercial value

Big shout to the Institute for Alien Research in Bath for letting us know that the Nocturnal Emmissions Tribute LP is now out and about. It features Madtone with the track To all of our friends across the pond and our good radio friend from across the pond Justin Patrick Moore with Transcranial Emulsions. Big shout to Cowboy Joe and all our friends in Leeds, England.

Put on that silk dressing gown, plonk an imaginary cigarette into a long and stylish cigarette holder, mix yourself a cocktail of what’s available in the fridge and sit back and enjoy the studio version of last night’s Skybird Supper Club Imaginary Lounge programme on WRMI.

Godspeed – Nightcrawling (Excerpt)
Monodrone – Solitary feeling
Dub Addiction – Ecological Dub (Calm Down Remix)
