About meWriter/editor, currently exiled in the City of Angles (sic). My new book, Welcome to the Machine: OK Computer and the Death of the Classic Album, was published in 2007 to some really rather good reviews, actually. More to come in the second half of 2009.

About my libraryThis is just a capsule; the bulk of my stuff is split between London and Hampshire. Should I catalogue from memory? That (among many other things) is the question.

All due respect to someone who clearly knows his music, as well as acknowledging that all things are a matter of taste. However, do you really, honestly feel that Blood On The Tracks does not even live up to "satisfactory?".

Thanks,

Why Mr. Footman, you've put on some weight. And some hair too, sir.

I guess it's a wash then?

Best regards

Indeed I do know you! Hello, Mr Footman!

How are you? (Besides the obvious - which is that you're at the foot of a very tall, possibly depressing mountain of Book Database Cataloguing.)
