Turning 50 soon - and it has occurred to me that I’ve been watching John Craven on tv more or less my entire life. What a treasure he is #countryfile

Fantastic gig from @MickFlannery at the @Cqaf marquee this eve. Love his dry humour too. How can a singer/songwriter just with a guitar or piano sound this good. @_ciaraoneill pulled off the same trick & their two duets were just magic - despite minimal rehearsal! Absolute pros

Thanks @JohnP5269 for a great listening party. It’s a far cry from Pepper or Revolver. But it’s still magic. Thanks everyone. Still one of the greatest endings to an album! #pleasepleaseme61

I love discovering new albums (to me) on these listening parties - but there’s nothing like revisiting an old favourite (with a cold beer in hand!)

And all of a sudden I’m on Twist & Shout. Nothing to say. Except just ‘magic’ #pleasepleaseme61

One of the things I love about this album (just like the Shadows first album from 1961) is the sheer range / virtuosity of the group. #pleasepleaseme61

Great bass on Boys - indeed throughout the whole album. Paul is a great player #pleasepleaseme61

I would love to be planted back in 1963 and see if I could pick as the Beatles as being so far above the rest of the pack - brilliant though this album is, for me it was really their early singles that propelled them into the stratosphere #PleasePleaseMe61

For me 1963, 1967 and indeed 1979 are probably the greatest years for the U.K. singles chart #PleasePleaseMe61

What an opener #PleasePleaseMe61

Do we really need to reappraise this? It is brilliant / even though it’s so far removed from where they ended up #PleasePleaseMe61
