SPGB politics turn up in the strangest of places. (Joking.)

Stumbled across this old article by Howard Moss the other day. I remember reading it originally back in 1990/91. So long ago. Where has the time gone? More importantly, where’s my hairline gone?

I thought list members would find it of interest.

Bijou Drains just stole my musical thunder, so I’m reduced to going folkie and, sadly, it’s not one of Paul’s best.

As recommended by Microdisney/High Llamas’ Sean O’Hagan on a recent music podcast:

Mention of music and Jesse James makes me think of these guys. It’s a two parter. Should be listened to in the correct sequence.

“Talking of play, we weren’t that far from Dulwich Hamlet FC ground at Champion Hill. Its supporters have a reputation for being progressive. Maybe we should leaflet their next home game if there are any volunteers. Anybody know when it is?”

Their last home game of the season is April 27th.
