What a treat for Nick these days. Loved by everybody, making music that he wants to make, loved by his fans. I only hope that perhaps the same thing happens to Graham Parker soon. A true peer.

"CRUEL TO BE KIND".....the title in itself is an attention grabber!!!🤗I'm 68 and a songwriter, I love the shine of his hair and a good example to other artists who have hung up their guitars!!! 🍰🥧Plus he writes most of his songs!!! I heard this when it first came out around 1981+82? And I was in my car after work and heard it for the first time and just flipped out and tried like crazy to hear it again and who it was!!! THANK YOU NICK!!! 🍦🍬🍭🧁🍩🍧❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

"No Sleep 'til Canvey Island" is a must read for anyone interested in how British Rock 'n' Roll morphed from the breakup of The Beatles until the beginning of punk...via Pub Rock.

Love both of these guys, as well as Alison Stewart. Nick Lowe is easily one of the greatest songwriters, singers, bass players, producers of the 20th & 21st century.

A Master songwriter,you can play his songs hundreds of times,and they still blow you away.He can write a good pop song, but some of them are so sensitive and deep,still retaining the simplicity and melody that makes you want to get up and dance.

I don't profess to be a genealogist, but my own research traced the Lowe bloodline down to a tipsy but good-natured shrimp salesman in olde Hong Kong.

I just saw Los Straightjackets w/X (12-13-22) nice poster; almost impossible to get ink to stick on it's 'pebbled'/dotted surface but lovely. And, I recognize that Gent in the hat in the front left corner from here in SF. Every City needs some venue called The Strand: books, films, Indy stuff & to be Respected!

Not sure what you're on about. Nick's not a fancy guitarist, those are just common major/minor fingerings.

Great to see Alison Stewart. I wish she had her own journalism show on TV but she just never seems to stick on TV shows very long. I read her book "First Class" and used to watch her on that PBS show "Here and Now" or something like that. She should have her own weekend show. I don't get it, Charlie Rose was exposed for the sad pervert he was and now PBS runs all these damned repeats on the weekend. Why not give Alison Stewart a weekend show?? These stations just never can have any creativity of their own, just copy the 6 month fads.

The book really is a great read. I still don’t think it ever cleared up why Rockpile broke up. Maybe there’s nothing really there. They were such a fabulous band that is sorely missed. Same thing with Little Village. They never looked comfortable onstage.

Ah it seems like only yesterday that I was sitting in my neighbor's mother's car... usually after school I would attach myself to a girl in my class. She was 13 and already well endowed lol. We would go sit in the garage and listen to the car radio.....quite often rockpile would be rotated in the mix... and I loved the band... still do

I was there. I remember Chris Difford and Terry Williams to name but two, entering the foyer, spotting Steve N and giving him the thumbs up. It was a matinee so Rockpile had to warm up a bit on a couple of old songs ("The race is on" was one) before they hit full strength. Highlight was Billy Bremner singing Carlene Carter's "Cry"; wasn't expecting it but great song. Brilliant gig.

This is a great Nick Lowe/Rockpile period piece, shot by the BBC in late 1978. When Will Birch asked Nick if he'd seen it over the last 40 years, Nick said, "I'd rather have my feet nailed to the floor and stare at the sun." kzitem.info/news/bejne/zX9_m4mmrZR6mWU
