Thanks for the kind words about my Zappa list! And I agree with your comment about his sense of humor - it's much better when he's "poking" fun at the subject rather than being "nasty" about it.

hm well I do really enjoy Varg so I think I'll be picking the book up pretty soon even though I rarely have any time or desire to read a book.

Thanks for the Joe Henry rec. For some reasons I've never sat down and listened to that album, and it's bloody good. Love those Jayhawks-shimmering guitars!
And yeah, Ardbeg Uiggedal is one hell of a dram!

Yeah, My Baby is a Headfuck is catching as hell! For me Earth vs The Wildhearts is one of the best albuns of the 90's, a great era in music for sure.

Outlaw country, WOO!

I didn't know people with your taste in music existed in my old hometown of Forres

I left when I was 18 for uni, its too quiet there

thanks for the kind words my friend ;)
