This is the centrepiece of this year's Christmas festivities in Gloucester, the Belgian Spiegeltent. After the rather pathetic ice-rink we had last year, this is a definite improvement. It's part of a "Winter Wonderland" set up in the city's King's Square, featuring Santa's Grotto and a fake snow landscape. The city council's website describes the Spiegeltent as "an ornate, early 20th...

So tonight's a night in for me on my own. My Wife is out and so is our houseguest so I'm left to my own devices. It's been a busy day and so this is good news. I'm prepped - a nice healthy meal (good quality veggie curry bits from Waitrose) and I've got a ton of music mags to catch up on, and loads on the Sky planner that's been there for far too long (some BBC documentaries like that Synth Britannia...

Walers in Vermont Mountains I've mentioned whales a number of times before on my land locked farm blog. There is no sea to see for a long ways from here despite our high vantage point. But there are walers, sans-whales, in the photo above. The long horizontal boards that hold our concrete forms together are called walers . This is as opposed to the wailers who 'sing' in bands and the whalers who hunter...

Rock music is now only really a nostalgia re-packaging industry for… er… the 'increasingly-more mature' adult (who seem to rather fervidly do their utmost to deny the fact of their aging) rather its traditional market of an adolescent fantasy of imagined authenticity.

http://www.mediafire.com/?gw2kyiunmzz Recorded for the BBC In Concert show during the 1973 Catch A Fire Tour just when the Wailers were starting to break through in Britain. With Peter Tosh and Bunny Livingstone in the band I prefer this earlier stuff which still had the rawness to it. Recorded on 24th May 1973 this comes from a rebroadcast of the gig by BBC Radio 6

With elements of Cuban son, and 70s soul-jazz melded to a strong roots reggae, Groundation are traditionalists unbound by pure tradition. There's little doubt anyone who strongly vibes with Bob Marley & The Wailers and Steel Pulse won't dig Here I Am (Young Tree Records) a great deal, but there's a sumptuous reach riding inside th…

Few musical styles associate themselves so closely with a particular country as reggae music does to the island nation of Jamaica. Though it has only been around since the late 1960s, reggae was brought to world prominence by Bob Marley and the Wailers, though in its history there have been a multitude of talented performers.

The Panasonic Toyota Racing garage was certainly abuzz in Abu Dhabi, and not just after Kamui’s brilliant sixth place finish in just his second Grand Prix. There was a reggae beat pumping out on Saturday when The Wailers – formerly Bob Marley’s backing band – gatecrashed the party to see what Formula 1 was all about. They [...]
