The many and various ways I pass the time now has a new addition. Usually it involves drinking coffee whilst sitting at a computer keeping in touch with chums, or sipping wine sitting on our tiny terrace catching the sun, and wondering what else I can do to avoid any cleaning or tidying or putting away of stuff and things that aren't even MINE.

    Stevie Wonder was writing and recording his best music when I was at a very formative age (1972-1977, when I was in my late teens and early twenties) and it was the ethos behind the lyrics that attracted me as much as the playing and the singing. For you, the equivalent dominant sound of your youth would have been The Beatles.
