Muso-bable
The thoughts and ocassional ramblings of a 30-something muso.
Hello, I’m a muso. I'm one of those guys you see digging around the racks of vinyl in London's backstreet record shops. I'm not addicted, I can give it up whenever I want. I just need to find that limited edition 7" single that the NME made single of the week. Maybe you've bumped into me in the queue for the bar at The Academy or The Astoria. There are thousands of us in London - I've seen all the regular faces in the record shops and at the gigs.

This blog is my attempt to write about the records that I love, the gigs I've been to and, well, anything else to do with music. Hopefully you'll find something here that makes you nod in agreement or rant in disagreement or maybe even laugh.

Number One on The Day You Were Born
Ever wondered what was number one on the day you were born? Perhaps finding out might help answer some of those "what does it all mean?" questions you've been asking recently, but then again probably not. Still it's good fun and people can't lie like they do with the first record you bought question:

Mine isn't too hot:

Artist: Gary Glitter
Song title: I Love You Love Me Love

But its better than a work colleague who is lumbered with Congratulations by Cliff Richard. Ouch.

Comments:
haha i feel your pain... 17th november 1973 means i'm branded with gary glitter as well!
 
Ah, you're just a few days younger than me then.

I was a bit upset by some of the youngsters at work who where born when The Police or The Specials were at number 1. I guess we should be grateful that we just about remember these records being on Top Of The Pops.
