2 Texture of the week: Movember




One week down, Jacky is not a fan, but the beard is growing on me (hahahahahaha). That Movember link again.


3 Listening: WTWMC - Loved Ones




One week completed (the Jacky week). See what you think here.


4 Listening: Jefferson Starship presents Jefferson's Tree of Liberty




A (very) late career highlight - Paul Kantner and David Freiberg etc return to their folk roots for an acoustic outing. Amazingly good! Not on Spotify sadly, but it is on YouTube

Only time for one track? Try Royal Canal.


5 R.I.P Quincy Jones




Overtime: James Clear

5 Pablo


Great piece on Picasso. I learnt a lot (could he have painted that much? I hope it's true).

Extra texture: Drones, drones, and more drones
