I’m wildly behind the TV curve, in that I’m just watching Stranger Things now. But I’ve got to say they’re killing it with the music choices.

They were never quite my favourite band, but were always there or thereabouts

In Legend of the Fall: Mark E Smith kept swinging to the end, Dave Simpson sums things up well. 🎵

2018 is working hard to be the new 2016. First Ursula Le Guin; now Mark E Smith has been taken from us.

The Fall were one of the great bands, no matter what lineup. It’s just sad that the last time I saw them, about two years ago, they were terrible.

Sadder, of course, that Smith is dead.

So it goes.
