@JulienceUK Trying to get to grips with Ableton recording software after years of using a 4 track and a drum machine 😬 it isn't as intuitive as I'd hoped.
Thank goodness for YouTube videos

@TheHouseof08 Usually the DKs would be my choice but in this instance I have to pick Faster Pussycat. The live version on Smell of Female is one of their finest moments.

@BenGoldsmith Do you know how it got to be this way, Ben? Do you know the history of the clearances?
Some communities are able to buy back some land and rewild it with native species but there is a long way to go.

I’ve just been in Scotland.
The writer Aldo Leopold once said that even the smallest ecological education leaves you walking through ‘a world of wounds’ which nobody else seems to see.
Scotland’s beautiful hills and glens have for the most part been stripped and scarred and left utterly desolate by generations of landowners, land managers and dreadful politicians.
You can drive in any direction for hours and see nothing but sheep and more sheep on denuded hillsides, pockmarked with vast, artless blocks of monocultural conifer plantation deadzones.
Even where there are few sheep, red deer numbers are artificially inflated for the canned shooting industry and the deer do just the same as the sheep, leaving nothing but cropped grass from the top of the hills to the bottom of the valleys, a gigantic bowling green with contours.
Developing countries which have suffered a loss of trees and nature on anything like the same scale have the rest of the world rushing to offer assistance in restoring it. Think Madagascar, or Nepal, where things are fast now being turned around.
Many of the pockets of natural woodland that remain in Scotland are totally infested with head-height invasive rhododendron.
Some landowners are turning things around, to the fury of their neighbours, but they remain a small minority. Those places are fast becoming truly magical islands of what once was and what could be again.
It’s even worse under the sea, out of sight, out of mind. Scotland says that marine protected areas represent 38% of its seas. It’s bollocks. Even the most destructive fishing practices such as bottom trawling are permitted with impunity in nearly all of it. Just 1% of Scotland’s seas are actually protected.
This is what happens when you have a population that has lost touch with what nature is, and can’t see the ravages which surround it; governed by politicians who are in hock to a small minority of established vested interests who simply won’t have it any other way.

@johnandi Gaza / Israel and Mandelson are major errors of judgement.
Mandelson is haunting him now and Gaza / Israel will haunt the UK for many years.

Edinburgh Airport, the most unpleasant and unwelcoming airport in the world.
A national embarrassment.

Album of the day is by Judas Priest, 'Screaming for Vengeance' this is the moment Judas Priest truly perfected the blueprint for 80s heavy metal. From the second the 'The Hellion' fades into the high-octane shredding of 'Electric Eye' you can tell the band was firing on all cylinders.
Rob Halford’s vocals are absolutely legendary here - he hits those glass-shattering highs with such ease that it’s almost intimidating. Meanwhile, the twin-guitar attack of Glenn Tipton and K.K. Downing creates a wall of sound that is both melodic and incredibly aggressive.
It's an album that feels like a victory lap for a band that finally found the sweet spot between commercial appeal and pure, unadulterated power.
What makes this album a permanent fixture in my rotation is how balanced the track list is. Beyond the massive radio hit 'You've Got Another Thing Comin' which features that iconic Ian Hill bassline and Dave Holland’s steady, driving beat, there are some real gems like 'Bloodstone' and the relentless title track.
The production is crisp and punchy, capturing the energy of a band at their absolute peak. Whether you’re a lifelong metalhead or just getting into the genre, this is one of those essential "all killer, no filler" albums that reminds you why Priest earned the title of Metal Gods. hardrockjunkies.com/HRJ/393/ enjoy and #RockOn
