Released this day in 1973, The Who's Quadrophenia, their 2nd full-length rock opera. Who's Next was their greatest album but Love, Reign O'er Me made the hairs stand on the back of your neck #thewho #quadrophenia

On 22nd Oct 1976, I bought New Rose by The Damned. It was the first punk single, it was on Stiff Records & it blew my mind. I still have it 50 years on & it still does. If there's any music this ferocious & exciting around now, I’d love to hear about it. #punkrock #thedamned

I read a few good books on holiday but this was by far the best. The 4th in David McCloskey’s CIA saga is my spy novel of the year. Artemis Procter is crying out for her own TV/streaming series (ditto Steve Cavanagh’s Eddie Flynn) @mccloskeybooks #spy #novel #fiction
