Have Adrienne Poster, psychedelic Doctor Who, World Countdown, Bonnie Dobson, and Sandro Brugnolini ever all been between the same covers together? They have now! Keeping their toes warm in another cracking issue of Shindig! Magazine is my Vinyl Art column which this month goes all Antipodean and swirly. It must be the heat.

Shindig! No.162
Al Kooper knows who hasn't subscribed to Shindig! Magazine. Make amends now and this month you can read about the man himself, the Evergreen Review, compilations of 1969, Goodtimes Enterprises, and all the usual offbeat brilliance you demand. Plus me, for Vinyl Art, going looking for phallic rocks in the desert. Where else? Nowhere else!

Shindig! No.160
British '60s jazz, Krautrock Eruption, a deep dive into twenty years of hauntology, Lynn Carey, and more besides - it's all in the new Shindig! Magazine, out this week. And I was lucky enough to find out about the rather fascinating Nik Pascal Raicevic for Vinyl Art, so now you can too. You would have had this issue last week if you subscribed!

Shindig! No.158
Out this week is 2024's final issue of Shindig! Magazine, with our traditional end-of-year best-of, seasonal spookiness, Fred Wesley (yes!), even more Paul Williams, and plenty more besides. And I spent some time with those deep diggers at Guerssen for an expanded Vinyl Art. See you in '25.

On Saturday my esteemed colleague Stephen Barnard and I will be presenting a special French-themed session of our ongoing Classic Albums talks, in the picturesque surroundings of the Letchworth Settlement. Stephen will be talking about Édith Piaf's Recital 1961 while I'll be tackling the fan favourite that is Serge Gainsbourg's Histoire de Melody Nelson. À bientôt là-bas!
