Welcome to the working week. After a peculiar weekend when I was either laid low with a cold (Rhinovirus and diabetes are not a good mix) or struggling with the intermittently recalcitrant BT broadband, both me and the computer are back on duty, albeit both a little battered. Today we have some jolly stuff for you all. We have a revealing interview with Michael Des Barres during which he manages to namecheck both Byron and Muddy Waters without sounding even a little bit pretentious. I am getting to like this man more and more:

I was pootling about on YouTube when I found a fascinating interview with Chris Squire from Yes talking about the day he met Jimi Hendrix. As there are four different Yes products on the Gonzo roster I can afford to be self indulgent here:

Regular readers will have read my ramblings in praise of the wonderful Troy Donockley, uillean piper supreme. Now you can check him out as well with an exclusive slice from his new album:

Whilst on the subject of Troy D, here is a review from Holland. It seems they like him nearly as much as I do:

And finally an excerpt from a fascinating interview from a Greek website. The interviewee? None other than another of my faves; Judge Smith. And as his current album 'Orfeas' is a retelling of an ancient Greek myth, it seems oddly appropriate:

Hopefully things will be back to normal tomorrow.
