    Ok, as it’s getting dusty in here & David Gray was mentioned, his album White Ladder always takes me back to a previous life, before my gorgeous wife Ana died, we spent an idyllic holiday in the Greek islands, lucky enough to charter a yacht with skipper & he had White Ladder on repeat. I can still smell the sea, hear the wind ripping the sails & see Ana sitting in the bow soaking up the sun, with the biggest grin as Dolphins break the surface.
    Music is a very powerful medium.

    Raindrops keep falling on my head always reminds me of pre-school afternoons with my mum listening to the radio (yup, listening with mother!).
    Silver Machine always reminds of the school taxi (6 or 7 of us in a Ford Zodiac driven by ‘Tattie’ Taylor). I remember one time when a kid’s pop gun accidently opened the back door and he rolled out on a corner! Fortunately only minor cuts and bruises…
    Pop Music (M): secondary school daze.
    Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting: happier days (before the arse fell out), council flat, me mugging, pretending to play sax, her laughing.
    Always coming back to you: public park October time knowing things would never be the same again

    Honestly I could go on (at infinite length my dear).

    Still listen to it every so often

    And the opening quote of
    “In his autumn before the winter comes mans last mad surge of youth” seems quite pertinent these days 😮
