The Violet Hour - The Fire Sermon
-
Got to be one of the original St Blazey 37/6 allocation . If I had to choose just one, it would be 37674 in red stripe livery and snowploughs.

Blue Öyster Cult, Secret Treaties. In memory of manager, producer and lyricist Sandy Pearlman, who died yesterday.

Don't have photos to prove it, but I can remember Motorail-branded Carflats on the evening Eastleigh-Willesden Speedlink, loaded with Transits. Would probably have been just after the WCML trains had gone over to GUVs?

"Diesels on the Western" by Michael Welch, page 89. Photo of a maroon Western on a Tavistock Junction to Severn Tunnel Junction freight, composed almost entirely of empty Carflats, with a tube wagon and a Vanfit at the end. Not strictly the NGsoc model, since they're pre-nationalisation rather than Mk1 underframes. But any idea what the traffic flow might have been?

Unfortunately the blue/grey FK isn't listed in the current catalogue. It looks as though Farish only did the one batch, while the SK is on its sixth (up to E suffix on the catalogue number), and the TSO is on "C". May have to search eBay....
-
Can't remember where now, but I've seen a WR formation where the coaching stock part was BCK+FK+RU+FK+FK, all coaches in the Farish range. With an equivalent number of Carflats you're still looking at a 10+ car train, though. "Short" is relative here...

Bit of a signature train for 70s Cornwall too.
-
Opeth - Watershed One of my desert ilsland disks, I think.
-
(Warning, the lyrics contain swears)
-
Haze. That's a name I haven't heard for long time,
-
Ghost Community - Cycle of Life Supergroup led by Matt Cohen, formerly of The Reasoning, and definite echoes of their sound.

Solstice - Prophecy Tilt - Hinterland Frost* - Milliontown

Iamthemorning, Lighthouse. One of those records that's impossible to pigeonhole. A Russian duo comprising a singer and a classical pianist, accompanied by a chamber orchestra and a rock rhythm section, and goes from rock to classical to jazz. Vocals sound a lot like Kate Bush. Before that, Panic Room before a small but appreciative crowd at Talking Heads in Southampton. Who's going to see them at Islington Assembly this coming Saturday?
-
Josh & Co, Transylvania Part One, The Count Commands It. This is an entertainingly silly record about vampires.
-
Radiohead - A Moon Shaped Pool Iamthemorning - Lighthouse Big Big Train - Folklore Three of this year's best albums.
-
Vektor - Terminal Redux. Face-melting metal.
