Since spring officially started the other day it looks like there’s some changes going on. For the first time today we lifted the plastic cover off the foxgloves and giant garlic that have been overwintering to give them some air and to make sure they don’t overheat. The giant garlic looks more than healthy and the foxgloves are hanging on in there. The brick at the side is there for size comparison. God knows how giant those garlic will get!

We just found this excellent tune by accident and what a tune! It’s by Burt Blanca & The King Creoles and called Taboo ’69. We love those echoey sound effects (one sounds like a metal M&B beer tray being slammed down hard on a pub table) and the twangy guitar too! It’s from the Radio Martiko Bandcamp that has some seriously good stuff on there.

And thinking of that title here’s another fine tune, this one’s by The Cyril X. Diaz Orchestra with Tabu. Wonderful stuff!

And talking of the Radio Martiko Bandcamp, how’s this for some serious mad stuff? Ansambl Mileta Petrovića with Moj Mihone. All we can say is “Wow!”
