@SecretDJBook This is excellent!! Highly recommended. Top strasse jazz ❤️

It's Friday so that means a departure from the worldly cares and woes and a little something from the vaults. This sequel to the unloved original Jazz Mess was more well-received and I think I got it even a little jazzier this time. Excelsior! mixcloud.com/SECRE_DJ_MIXES…

@SVG__Collection Marvin

You can only choose one. Which is your favorite record?

@SVG__Collection If you swapped for Diamond Life by Sade that would be my clear winner…. @SVG__Collection

You can only pick one. Which is your favorite album?

@heidisaint Stylin! ❤️ WM

He was a socialist, and Walthamstow born and bred. Humble legend. Jeremy Deller magic today in Trafalgar Square in celebration of 200 years of the national gallery. Beautiful, uplifting art.

Jazz fusion didn’t get cooler than this — Herbie and the Headhunters in full stride.

Grace…

@SVG__Collection Funkadelic

If you could join any band in history, which one would it be?

@SecretDJBook Get well soon bro’. The answer will come ♥️

I'm not giving up on folks who are staying. I will deliver news as and when it comes. I'm wrestling with this evil flu and also where to put my stuff from now on. I don't want to use any of the paid machines like Substack. I will work it out, there is a backlog. Soon come.

@cameralab21 @StudioLive26 @StudioLive26 up there with Ry Cooder’s Paris Texas

Chris Isaak - Wicked Game - Live in studio The musicianship & sound engineering are insane... With good headphones or speakers, the clarity & balance are really kewl.

@SecretDJBook Rebel without a Pause!

One of the things that possibly ages me but is a genuine worry is that young lads no longer see a leather jacket, apathy and cigarettes as rebellion. It's Crypto, Ayn Rand, misogyny, Tesla, 'owning the Libs' and frankly, it comes across nasty, geeky and frankly a bit shit.

@heidisaint Yes-i

a young trades (like 20 or something) just bought me a shot of tequila in spoons. I didn’t ask for it. Still got it lads

@vickyrolph89 Hammered this tune at Back to Basics!! Love it ❤️

@sergioandreola @StudioLive26 And check out the current version @ThePlayhouseLDN Saw it this week. Stunning

Bob Fosse and Liza Minnelli on the set of “Cabaret”, 1972.

@SecretDJBook Dope!

Don't misunderstand me, in the same weekend I'd as likely be working at Basics. I was no bumpkin. It wasn't the music so much as the approach to it all. We all had access to records. But you have to remember that Berlin was a long way off - youtube.com/watch?v=Uxf1ZP…

All fun and games aside, and yeah you defo may as well leave that at the door, you went to get deep. youtube.com/watch?v=pPIoEr…

@SecretDJBook I’m in too. Thanks for sharing

I'm in. 48 hrs to go. kickstarter.com/projects/sunra…

@SecretDJBook Proud to govern

I was sick of arguing with my comrades on The Left some decades back. So I am not going to bother anymore. Starmer wasn't in power when you made all those batshit accusations against him. He was playing possum - which was blindingly obvious. theartnewspaper.com/2024/03/14/uk-…

@SecretDJBook You are a champion!

Just want to point out that one of the main purposes of the Secret DJ project was always to satirise the industry and expose genuine wrongdoing. It’s strange that it needs explaining constantly, but this is not a bad thing, it is a good thing. BUT please bear in mind that what we discuss here is a very, very wrong minority of rotters. Something like 90% of my industry are jolly good eggs quietly getting on with life. Take heart that there is also much goodness. Here’s to the smashers, bigguns and good eggs. I raise a glass to you all tonight.
