Friday Music Time "Something for the weekend Sir" on 09:31 - Jan 30 by DJR
With the closure of nightclubs, this is presumably something that less people these days says to each other at the weekend.

I dance most weekends. Plenty of great music venues putting on soul nights, all dayers, weekenders up and down the country. Also, Sunday afternoon dances are becoming very popular.

This was written for Nico to sing but in the end Lou Reed sang the main lyrics.
I used to think that song was about the buzzed feeling you have after a waking up from a serious Saturday night but I heard an interview with Lou Reed in which he explained that it's about paranoia. Runs deeper when you realise that.
Anyway, this weekend we hope that Preston come to play football but we all know what a Paul Heckingbottom (who used to play for the Nodge) side are really like so an old favourite that I have found a new video (with lyrics) for that forecasts what it is probably going to be like.

Me and Lady Dollers saw Nick Drake's grave over Christmas. We were staying with her sister in a little village called Tanworth in Arden near Birmingham, and his grave is in the churchyard there. Very non-descript other than a pot full of plectrums.

I thought of you when I posted.
And whilst
in my case my legs and hips no longer do what the mind tells them.
Putting it another way, and by analogy with football, my dancing these days is at walking football level.

I'm not sure about this cover, in fact I'm taking my time to acclimatise to all of 'The Endless Coloured Ways' project. Somehow Nick Drake's hesitant breathy voice has more assurance than Guy Garvey's supreme confidence (and I say this having seen Garvey sing 'God Only Knows' on Monday night at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow as part of Roddy Hart's 'Roaming Routes Revue' and finding it an improvement on the song when I heard Brian Wilson sing it - but then Wilson in later life had a few challenges live.)
I didn't know you can visit Drake's grave but I did have the strangely wonderful experience of sitting beside that coloured poncho (a bit moth eaten now) and in front of Drake's guitar when Jon Wilks put together a Les Cousins themed day at last year's FolkEast, something I never thought I would experience.
