In some ways, it was "Gazpacho" that sold me on the album, since it sucked me in immediately: a cautionary tale about a celebrity caught up in his own legend who falls spectacularly from grace. A story we see replayed over and over every day.

I love that song. I went to see them for the first time in years (I’d drifted away at those earlier albums tbh) and they opened with Gazpacho. When Steve Rothery’s guitar riff started I had this sudden rush of emotion. Knew then I was “home” again 🙂

Bookmark: Alfred Cheatsheet
I switched to Alfred for my app launcher/file manipulator/system controller. Launchbar was always one of the first apps I installed on a new mac but some basic features started to throw up errors recently so I tried Alfred and loved it. This is a handy list of hotkeys and shortcuts for a new user.

Continuing my investigations into static web site generators. Pretty soon I’ll have an empty site based on all of them. Jekyll feels like a keeper though.

I’m back in the Sonos world again. Amazon products are too invasive and Apple HomePods are hopeless when it comes to integration with other services. You still can’t ask Siri to play BBC Radio stations.

Some good starter points for clueless beginners like me. Patching synths is like weird science.
