Rhythm Of Life - James Mason

Rhythm of Life

Advantages: access to well kept pop secret
Disadvantages: no hit singles

The name Paul Haig is almost always absent from any eighties hall of fame ,certainly from the electro pop perspective which prevailed at the time of this release in July 83,but for those in the know who might have spent some of their hard squandered student grant on the perennial and seemingly eternal N>M>E the name Paul Haig held a god like status for fans of Scottish indie legends Josef .K of whom Paul Haig was lead singer and founding member,this unique and groundbreaking record was Haigs first solo release, a full two years after the demise of Josef K. To the untrained or indeed uninterested ear "Rhythm of Life" on first listen sounds standard fayre for its time ,with nothing to distinguish it from its then comtemporaries,the references and similarities abound,from Heaven 17 to the Associates from Gang of Four to the Thompson ...

Review of Rhythm Of Life - Paul Haig

A Life interrupted by tics

Advantages: A captivating read, inspirational
Disadvantages: Lumps Tourettes and OCD together, the short interlude chapters

Memoir of a Nearly Person? while the paperback (more recent) version?s is ?The True Story of a Life Driven by Tourette's?. Both are the same book. The author is James McConnel, a British composer and author, and since this is an autobiography you can find out all about him (well, at least his earlier years) by reading the book! Anyway, for those who are interested, my copy which has a predominantly black cover with the shadow of a boy?s face has 345 pages (but they?re fairly short pages), and the book was published in 2006. Paperback copies can be picked up for £5.24 on Amazon which is pretty standard, second hand for less obviously! The Structure Before chapter 1 there is a chapter (well, less than two pages) called ?The End?, and all chapters are interspersed with these (all called ?The End?), I suppose as some sort ...

Review of Life, Interrupted - James McConnel

The Mason's Arms in St Mellons, Cardiff

Advantages: Great food, top quality service.
Disadvantages: You have to book two weeks in advance

changes have only taken place over the last eight months when the pub was taken over by new management and given a completely new lease of life. On arrival at The Mason's Arms, you are greeted by a very large cottage in appearance from the outside with a good-sized customer car park at the side of it with ample spaces for 15-20 cars. The outside of the building is tastefully yet traditionally decorated and very well maintained with a clean, rubbish free, well maintained car parking facility. In the front of the main building is a small but well maintained and clean beer garden with eight tables, which have umbrella on them during the summer months. Access. -------------------- The Mason's Arms has good access for the disables with drop curb access to the entrance path and easy access through the main double opening doors. Everything in ...
