Iggy Pop Is The Passenger. Top Story - August 2022.
Introducing The Passenger I have always been a fan of Iggy Pop ever since The Stooges. I loved “The Idiot” his first David Bowie collaboration, but the follow-up, “Lust For Life” was jam-packed with amazing songs like the title track, “Success” and for me, most importantly “The Passenger” written by Ricky Gardiner, the lead guitarist on the album.

Lionesses
Introduction I am not really sure how to actually pitch this. On Sunday England Lionesses (I am writing this on Friday 29th of July so it may not get published in time) play Germany in the Euro 2022 Final at Wembley Stadium.

More Than A Feline. Top Story - July 2022.
Introduction - Why I Am Writing This Yeah the title is a deliberate take on the Boston song which kicks off one of the best sides of a vinyl album that you will ever hear, but this is not about Boston it is about cats, the ones that I meet on my daily walks.

On The Railway Station (Waiting For A Runaway Train)
Preamble Although this mentions Runaway Trains it was not originally for the current Vocal Challenge, just an idea I had after a particularly unsuccessful day in so many ways, and apparently, it was all my fault. C’est La Vie. If something bad happens and I am involved then I always end up taking the blame. And that influenced this story.
