Battlo Rose - If you want to know what this week's attached photo is, first tell me what you think it looks like, and your reaction... we might even arrange a prize ... hit Reply and get typing.. the editor's decision is always 100% right, dang it.

Our Photos site at www.rob-walsh.net now has new pics, with older favourites revisited – all photos are organic home-grown produce, with zero manipulation or photo-shopping (ok, alright, I’ve cropped one…).

It’s the 40th anniversary of Miles Davis’ Bitches Brew, and there now seems to be a beer of the same name..

Another labour-of-love blog – Old Weird America – pictures, downloads, links and lots of history, ‘using Harry Smith’s Folkways Anthology as a roadmap to explore american music’ http://oldweirdamerica.wordpress.com/

Included are downloads of sixty – yes, 60 – versions of the infamous Stacka / Stagger Lee tune

http://oldweirdamerica.wordpress.com/category/19-stackalee-by-frank-hutchison/

This appears to be a work in progress, so I’m avidly waiting for more on Richard ‘Rabbit’ Brown’s James Alley Blues, my favourite Anthology track, which occurs towards the end of collection.

About Rob

Rob co-founded BCB with Mary Dowson, back when the hills were young and it were all flat caps an chappatis round 'ere. It was known as Bradford Festival Radio then, and thanks to the generosity of Dusty Rhodes we got started. Now he takes photos, puts little silver discs in drawers, mumbles into microphones, and walks on the hills. Keep On Blowin..
