Depends what you mean by 'fashion'. I would mistrust it if it has a capital 'F' (except at the beginning of a sentence, of course).It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world. -

God I hate Nyman's stuff

Choosing punter A's suggested 'Country Gardens' over punter B's suggested 'Le Festin de l'Araignée' says it all really. And then 'Marche Slave' - the 'switch-off' piece to end all 'switch-off' pieces I keep trying, I really do...

Enjoy tomorrows show, Cali.
In fact, I might listen in to see if you have tweeted.*
I suppose even "Readybrek with SMP" better than the rumble of the London traffic, or the honking horns on Boris Bikes.

... the Breakfast Show on Saturday gave us a song from 'South Pacific' and the theme tune to 'Superman'.
I'm enjoying the silence of the mornings here nowadays....Comment

I am afraid like many have keep straying back to Breakfast. The tweets, texts, and call ins are annoying. But for me Uri Cain yesterday was enough. I know many like his style and I don't mind variation and free improvisation but I just cannot get or tolerate his music.Originally posted by vinteuil View PostComment

Fortunately I pedal off after the 9 o'clock transition into some sort of adult programming...
The attempts to grapple with Petroc's Sugar Puffs are prompted simply by a desire to have a bit of music around during the morning routine. Switching to a recorded TTN (or this month, the Heffer Saturday afternoon prog) is an easy alternative."...the isle is full of noises,
