A review of two recent Fallish books, one which is new to me: "In the wake of Mark E. Smith’s passing, two recent releases—Excavate!: The Wonderful and Frightening World of The Fall and Slang King: M.E.S on Stage 1977–2013—chronicle the legacy of The Fall." https://bombmagazine.org/articles/he-is-not-appreciated-two-books-about-the-fall JC

Let's get a bit of old fashioned mailing list discipline, boys and girls. Limited storage for a freebie .io mailing list so on replies delete the previous sixty-page computer printouts on the end of forests and 9MB BMP (appalling drone?)

Here’s two good ones for a Friday afternoon. Which 3 bands did you see when you were young or before they were famous that you can hardly believe you saw. I suppose you could include the fall. Here’s my “starter for ten”: * Destroy All Monsters in 1980 * Soft Cell in 1980 * Captain Beefheart in 1982 Which 3 bands can you believe you didn’t go and see when they played in your area. The Fall can of course be included. * Kraftwerk 1981 (I forgot!) * Ramones 1980 * Slits 1980 Go on then punks, make my day. Adam

I lost my job today can you all recommend some music to cheer me up.

"Fans of The Fall can join a walking tour of Mark E Smith's Prestwich, learning from superfan Rob Carroll about how Mark often wrote about the people and places right on his doorstep." Unfortunately, "Kicking off the festival is a screening and Q&A of new feature film ‘The Pebble and the Boy’ from filmmaker Chris Green, celebrating mod culture with the music of Paul Weller." https://www.burytimes.co.uk/news/19566202.prestwich-arts-festival-returns-2021/ JC

I just met a Fall fan friend-of-a-friend who proudly showed me his forearm tattoo that he claimed said "Hip Priest" in a sort of ornate blackletter style. I did not have the heart to tell him that it looked to me like it said what I wrote up in the subject line here.. Careful with your tattoo lettering choices, frenz.. JC

Tom Robinson has been sitting in for Gid Coe on radio 6 recently and his show has been a real eye-opener. He has drawn my attention to the fact that there is so much utterly shyte music around these days! I was totally unaware and feel a bit of a fool for telling people that music is going through a golden patch. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Tom for selflessly performing such a valuable public service. I’m going to retreat back into my cocoon of good tunes now and never venture out again. adam
