Martin Newell - Jacqui...

Since Martin Newell's Golden Afternoon last Sunday, I've been going back and revisiting all his solo records. The beautiful Grenadine And Blue from The Light Programme had passed me by on first listen and I was sure there were other gems I should be more aware of. And sure enough, there are plenty. In particular is Jacqui, also from The Light Programme. This song is simply Gorgeous, the lyrics swelling one's heart with regret.

  1. So much to discover with Martin - I see that Koolkat even rereleased the Brotherhood of Lizards with extra tracks

  2. I know! He's great that way. I saw about BOL, that's awesome. I went to one of Martin's poetry gigs last night, he threw in a couple of songs on piano and guitar too. It was excellent.

    How have you been Wally?
