Keeping it Real for the Over 50s

In the autumn half light, a little dazed by recent results by the Scottish football side, I find myself obsessed by 2 main strands.

Going back to that Road to Damascus moment during ‘Broken Flowers’ on Arran & realising how smart this Ethiopian jazz really was, I have been listening to the huge 22+ cds in the Ethiopiques series.

Just for a break in this challenging collection, I have been re-living the greatness that was Pentangle. The 4 cd collection ‘Time Has Come’ gets played end to end until, yes you guessed right, it was time to get down to some more ‘Ethiopiques’.

Note to self: get outside more!
