From DCI Gene Hunt to 'Ziggy' Greaves off Grange Hill, David Bowie's influence got *everywhere* and into all kinds of places that you've forgotten about and which 'serious' music fans won't appreciate being reminded of... timworthington.org/2019/01/10/the…

@looksunfamiliar Mad Not Mad by Madness. Whilst slightly over produced (it was 1985 after all), the songs stand up alongside anything they’ve done before or since.
@looksunfamiliar Human League - Hysteria. Shiny, sharp-edged, futuristic. It just doesn’t sound like Dare.
Terence Trent D'Arby's second album Neither Fish Nor Flesh is certainly odd and overambitious, but it's not as 'bad' as it's made out to be. It's a lot more interesting than that. Which misfiring album by a major artist would you stand up for...? timworthington.org/2019/01/12/loo…
A chat about Spooky Chews, Matchbox Fighting Furies, The Strange Affair Of Adelaide Harris and - most terrifying of all - Timmy Mallett's cover of They're Coming To Take Me Away, Ha-haaa!... timworthington.org/2021/09/06/loo…
Economics headlines you can very nearly sing to the tune of Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes #83.
In the early seventies, BBC Records And Tapes released a series of children's albums that are full of some of the wildest psych, funk, folk, early electronics and spoken word weirdness you've never heard. Find out what to find - and where - here! timworthington.org/2019/01/16/lis…

Perhaps the single most important piece of writing in the entire history of journalism. Yes I am familiar with Bernstein and Woodward.

Some thoughts on Who Dares Wins... from someone who sneakily stayed up to watch it. timworthington.org/2022/05/23/loo…
TV THAT TIME FORGOT: Who Dares Wins... (Channel 4, 1983-88) Mulville and McGrath-propelled dropped curry-heralded uncouth panda-fixated late night live topical comedy generally involving slightly more male nudity than average satire and rarely far from tabloid ire and MP fury.
@looksunfamiliar @redskyatnight I found my copy of What a Mess in my dad’s garage when we cleared it out :) such joy. And incidentally - clearly what I model my catastrophuck of a life on :D
New Looks Unfamiliar! Joanne Sheppard (@redskyatnight) joins me for a chat about Go For It!, What-A-Mess, My Pretty Pony, The Water Babies, The Magnificent Race, Amazon Adventure by Willard Price, Snapper Crocodiles and more... including Danny Kendall? timworthington.org/2024/04/02/loo…

Great to see so much love for Robin of Sherwood. Besides the fabulous writing, the pitch-perfect cast, the beautiful photography and the unforgettable Clannad score, what’s sometimes forgotten is how influential it was to the ongoing Robin Hood legend. For one thing… 🧵 1/5
We still haven't managed to identify the mystery children's programme in this Looks Unfamiliar... has anyone got any leads on it?? timworthington.org/2018/03/19/loo…

@looksunfamiliar Jean Michel Jarre’s “Teo and Tea” It’s a departure from what he did before, but I liked it!
@looksunfamiliar Mad Not Mad by Madness. Whilst slightly over produced (it was 1985 after all), the songs stand up alongside anything they’ve done before or since.
@looksunfamiliar Human League - Hysteria. Shiny, sharp-edged, futuristic. It just doesn’t sound like Dare.
@looksunfamiliar @outonbluesix Erasure by Erasure. Singlehandedly ended their Imperial Phase, but it's the sound of a pop band throwing the rule book and any thoughts of 3-minute singles out of the window, why is probably why it flopped but I love it. They haven't sounded this confident or ambitious since.
@looksunfamiliar Beauty Stab - ABC. I thought it was quirky and inventive then. I still like it, especially the arrangements. It has stood the test of time.
Tonight at @XSMalarkey we have @ChelseaBirkby @BenGLC @EddieTheFrench and Mary Cross. We always need your support and charge very little in order to entice you to give it. You’ll be rewarded with an excellent night at @53two xx

Can't wait for L.I.B. to come out and the first wave of cut-by-cut, frame by frame comparisons to the available versions of the original release! I'm not going to do it, but I'm going to read them all!
Do you still get those lists in lifestyle magazines of what is purportedly 'In' and 'Out', primarily composed of people and things you've never heard of? Or has someone arbitrarily decided that they're 'Out' too?
A chat about Spooky Chews, Matchbox Fighting Furies, The Strange Affair Of Adelaide Harris and - most terrifying of all - Timmy Mallett's cover of They're Coming To Take Me Away, Ha-haaa!... timworthington.org/2021/09/06/loo…
Economics headlines you can very nearly sing to the tune of Love Grows Where My Rosemary Goes #83.

Perhaps the single most important piece of writing in the entire history of journalism. Yes I am familiar with Bernstein and Woodward.
Just found a pristine copy of *that* Select magazine. Which reminds me I was having a discussion with a chum the other day and we were wondering: where do kids easily get posters to cover their walls these days? (They prob don’t care tbh ☹️)
@outonbluesix I loved this series. I think I was the only one of my friends that watched it.
