The Rotterdam Incident

Last weekend I tuned into Eurovision. That’s what lockdown does to you. The Italian winners were Red Hot Chilli Peppers fronted by a young Michael Hutchence. The runner up was a delicate Edith Piaf flower re-potted. However two acts stood out. The Norwegian entry Tix performed his own song about the experience of having Tourettes and The Belgian group Hooverphonic who had been a major band in the early 2000s and the only act in my iTunes collection. We’ll ask why these acts didn’t get anywhere. We’ll also look at the career of Adrian Gurvitz – a musician who made the transition from rock guitarist to romantic songwriter to Yacht rock and then to worldwide acclaim as a songwriter-producer. We’ll play some excellent electronica – and introduce you to two superb young UK female acts who are future Mercury Award winners along with a young UK male musician called Hider who is unsigned but has 50,000 plays a month on Spotify. Let’s throw open your doors of reception.

I'm someone who doesn't like parameters, barriers or fences. I'll try and climb over them, burrow under them or just pretend they don't exist - until they don't. Sometimes I'll write about the mind in a poetic way, or poetry with neural undertones, or I'll proselytise endlessly about my favourite new band - or one of the old ones. My Blog will give you the keys to the kingdom. A kingdom with no borders, no expectations and, therefore, no failure.. Because I am endlessly empathetic with people, their motivation, their behaviour,their problems and their quest for knowledge, I work with the pioneering Brighton-based homeless, vulnerable women and disempowered school students charity Off The Fence Trust that has tried to redress the equality deficit for over two decades. I produce, host and promote two radio shows a week: The Whole Nine Yards Sundays 3-5pm on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM (www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen) - and Lost Immortals on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM on Sundays 5-7pm.
