Interesting one pager on Mr King in this weeks issue of ‘First’ magazine. Nothing we haven’t read but nice to see all the same They have a feature on pop stars ‘then and now’ and also feature Limahl, Go West, Toyah and Sonya. They all recreate a pic from back in the day. Marks is a 1985 shot I think. The mag is only £1.20. Just you know ‘First’ is a weekly mag for women who do not get a chance to read a paper or watch the news – my wife loves it. It will probably be alongside such mags as Heat, Closer and OK.
I work in advertising so can probably get a few copies if anyone cannot get one so just let me know.

Maybe imagine you can only have 5 CDs, > apart from your Level 42 collection, an a desert island?" With apologies to any old lags who've read bits of this before in one form or another... 1) Easiest pick is Art Pepper - Winter Moon. Pepper was an alto player who spent the best part of thirty years wreaking drug and alcohol havoc on his body, before getting clean and spending the last seven years of his life in a period of creative and commercial success. Critics would disagree but I think Winter Moon is his finest hour, a sumptuous, romantic set with string accompaniment which serves to emphasise the soulful yet edgy intensity of his soloing. This is the jazz album I recommend to people who don't like jazz - if they don't like this one, then they are indeed better off with The Lighthouse Family. 2) Stevie Wonder - Innervisions. Obviously you're spoilt for choice when it comes to Stevie Wonder, but this one comes as close to faultless as any of his. Not only is there not a duff track, there's barely a track that isn't a classic. 3) Jason Rebello - Keeping Time. Which shows a young lion of British jazz piano at the height of his eclectic powers. By turns funky, evocative, powerful, witty, it's all there. 4) Propellerheads - Decksandrumsandrockandroll. A pumping big beat powerhouse of an album, one of only a handful from the last decade to genuinely excite me. Worth getting for their extraordinary take on On Her Majesty's Secret Service alone. 5) Somewhere in the Digest archives is an in-depth appraisal of The Nightfly, which I shan't bother to reproduce because a) the last time I did some bloke whose name I can't remember went a bit ballistic and b) nobody's reading this any more anyway.
