LOTS of latecomers during ready set I had to get up to let people into the row, so there is no video there. The guy in front of me wouldn't stop moving so his head can come in and out of frame at times but it's always worked around.

Peter Gabriel announces his first album of new material in over 20 years

i/o releases on 1 December, 2023

i/o is 12 tracks of grace, gravity and great beauty that provide welcome confirmation of not only Peter’s ongoing ability to write stop-you-in-your-tracks songs but also of that thrilling voice, still perfectly, delightfully intact. Throughout the album the intelligent and thoughtful – often thought-provoking – songs tackle life and the universe. Our connection to the world around us – ‘I’m just a part of everything’ Peter sings on title track i/o – is a recurring motif, but so too the passing of time, mortality and grief, alongside such themes as injustice, surveillance and the roots of terrorism. But this is not a solemn record. While reflective, the mood is never despondent; i/o is musically adventurous, often joyous and ultimately full of hope, topped off as it is, by the rousingly optimistic closing song, Live and Let Live.  

Recorded mostly at Real World Studios and Peter’s home studio, the lengthy gestation of i/o means it has a sizeable cast list. Peter has kept his trusty inner circle of musicians close to hand, which means guitarist David Rhodes, bassist Tony Levin and drummer Manu Katché are sterling presences throughout. Several songs bear the fingerprints of long-time associate Brian Eno, whilst there are notable contributions from Richard Russell, pianist Tom Cawley, trumpeters Josh Shpak and Paolo Fresu, cellist Linnea Olsson and keyboard player Don E. Peter’s daughter Melanie contributes warm backing vocals, as does Ríoghnach Connolly of The Breath, while Real World regulars Richard Chappell, Oli Jacobs, Katie May and Richard Evans collectively provide programming and play various instruments. Soweto Gospel Choir and Swedish all-male choir Oprhei Drängar lend their magnificent harmonies to a selection of tracks, and the mass strings of the New Blood Orchestra, led by John Metcalfe, both soothe and soar.

Renowned for being a boundary-pushing artist, i/o is not simply a collection of a dozen songs. All 12 tracks are subject to two stereo mixes: the Bright-Side Mix, handled by Mark ‘Spike’ Stent, and the Dark-Side Mix, as reshaped by Tchad Blake. “We have two of the greatest mixers in the world in Tchad and Spike and they definitely bring different characters to the songs. Tchad is very much a sculptor building a journey with sound and drama, Spike loves sound and assembling these pictures, so he’s more of a painter.” Both versions are included on the double-CD package, and are also available separately as double vinyl albums. And that’s not all. A third version – the In-Side Mix, in Dolby Atmos, comes courtesy of Hans-Martin Buff “doing a wonderful job generating these much more three-dimensional mixes” and is included in three-disc set, including Blu-ray.

Continuing the idea developed for Peter’s US and UP albums, he has again invited a range of visual artists to contribute a piece of art to accompany the music and each of i/o’s 12 songs were handed to a world-renowned artist to create an accompanying work, whether paint, photography, sculpture or even Plasticine. The dozen artists make an exceedingly impressive team of collaborators: Ai Weiwei, Nick Cave, Olafur Eliasson, Henry Hudson, Annette Messager, Antony Micallef, David Moreno, Cornelia Parker, Megan Rooney, Tim Shaw, David Spriggs and Barthélémy Toguo. 

Another visual link with Peter’s past work is the cover shot. Taken by photographer Nadav Kander, it echoes with the covers of his earlier albums, always present but, with the exception of So, intriguingly obscured or manipulated. 

These echoes of the past might resonate, but i/o is fundamentally an album of – and for – the here and now. Many of its themes may be timeless, but they’re also warnings that we’re living on borrowed time, both as a planet and as individuals.

1 14 and 15!!!!

1. What is/are your top album(s) this year?

I'm sorry to say, I don't really have an answer for this one, as I don't keep up with current music. I also haven't listened to many whole albums as such over the past few years, outside of some collections of songs by my favorite vintage singers.

14. What was the last playlist you made about or for?

About those vintage singers… Recently on Apple Music, I made the above playlist of my favorite songs of the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s. Over the last four years, I've come to love the music of that period very much. Call this a comfort playlist. It features my favorite bandleaders – such as Artie Shaw, Harry James, Kay Kyser, Guy Lombardo, and Glenn Miller – and (mostly) female singers and vocal groups – such as Martha Tilton, The Boswell Sisters, Annette Hanshaw, Vera Lynn, and The Andrews Sisters, among others. Some of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard.

15. Name an artist you used to like but don't anymore

I don't have one single artist as such for this one. I used to be quite big on classic rock music generally, especially that of the 1960s and 1970s. But thanks largely to FM classic rock radio burnout, I tend to steer clear of most of it now. That and my love for vintage vocal and big band music overtaking it, with the exceptions of Eric Clapton, AC/DC, and Stevie Ray Vaughan, all of whom I've been a longtime fan of. However, I have gotten back into The Who over the past week, thanks to one of my mutuals who's a fan of theirs.

Thanks for sending this in! 🤍

Ellis Stunts: Gregory J. Barnett Stunts: Tim A. Davison Novel: Tom Clancy Movie Reviews: John Chard: Good guys are real good, and the bad guys are real bad. Patriot Games is a more than serviceable thriller, perhaps a bit out of date when viewing it now, but still a very effective good against evil piece. The source material is so dense and intricate it was always going to be hard to condense that into a 2 hour movie, but I feel the makers manage to keep it fleshy whilst making the respective characters interesting and watchable. The acting on show is more than adequate, Harrison Ford is great in the role of Jack Ryan, he manages to portray him as a sensitive family man who can step up to the plate when things get ugly, and Anne Archer is solid enough as the wife and mother caught up in the web of nastiness unfolding. The baddies are led by the brooding Sean Bean who is a little under written, whilst Richard Harris is sadly underused. However, the action set pieces make their mark and thankfully we get a riveting...

what's the one thing makes me say

heaven's just across the way

it's a precious little thing called love ☆

1920s Steddie AU where Steve is a children's book illustrator and Eddie is a writer

(more beneath the cut)

So, Steve Harrington comes from a rich family who funds his career as an illustrator. A fortunate, posh, snobbish boy who got sent to prestigious art schools and went to galleries and exhibits. He has refined taste, thank you, just a bit uptight about it. But then he comes across the written works of Eddie Munson (under an alias) and becomes star struck with his work. He creates poems, stories, sonnets, odes; fantasies of escapism, love and unconventional love. He writes erratically, like a livewire, a tremendous build up, a climax that rumbles and leads to an almost plummeting fall. Ends with a resolution that settles your heart. He writes like he wants to be seen, and Steve gets the urge to want to illustrate for him.  So he sends letters, invites, and whatever he can to reach Eddie. When Eddie gets back to him, they both find that they are both enamored with each other’s work. In fact, they’re so enamored with each other, they send letters back and forth, first about plans to meet, to become familiar, to acquaint themselves with each other. But the more they write, the more they fall for their idiosyncrasies, their little quirks, the way they write and cross out their own words or misspell a certain word. Little doodles from Steve, footnotes and poems and turns of phrases from Eddie.  Then they meet, and it’s like. Things are better. Much more real. Man, they’re in love. They never realized it before, until they stood there in front of each other, and they’re scared of course, terrified, even. But they have each other.  So they work together, publish works together. Their stories and illustrations combined are a wonder; fantastical, eerie, but with love and lessons. They move in together, under the guise of work.  Live together and never part, just hidden in the pocket of their lives.  It’s 20s America, but they make it work

Remember that post about pissing off a vampire until he speaks Minoan?

“Jacky always had a weakness for the girls and boys he’d find at port,” she said. “Taking ‘em aboard and making moon eyes till he’d finally break and have a feast of ‘em.”

“Annette,” Caz cut in. “We’re trying to have a discussion here.”

A low chuckle emanated from Temo.

“No, let her talk, Mraz,” he said. “I love hearing about your time as a swashbuckling pirate.”

“Privateer,” Caz said, swinging his long arms outward in a plea. “We were privateers. Not pirates.”

Annette turned back to him and wrapped an arm over his shoulder, hanging off him as if he were a tree she could climb — or maybe a mast.

“Ah, but who could forget Bloodless Jack and Annette the Red!” she said.

“I hate when you call me that,” Caz said, peeling away Annette’s limbs. “You know I hate it, don’t you? Or do you forget anything that’s happened after 1789?”

“Ah, well thou didst hate when they called thou ‘Jack the Slovak,’ so -”

“Because I’m not Slovakian!” Caz cried. “I’m fucking Romanian — well, Polish on my father’s side — thou shalt call me either Casimir Mraz or Kazimir Iosifescu, not Jack, thou scurvy wench!”

He stopped and flushed a near-purplish shade under the moonlight, drawing in a breath as though he could suck the words back in. Tala and Temo were choked with laughter. Jade couldn’t see what Valfierno was doing. He was somewhere just past her line of sight, but she could sense he was close.
