I Missed Again


The sceptics among you will automatically believe (from the title that is) that the Vicar has gone completely doo lally and admitted to a secret past of Phil Collins albums amongst the varied detritus of his past (maybe or maybe not). But the reality is shamefully in the present. Yet again I have failed in my task of getting on the contrast podcast and I am peeved. This is, of course, completely my fault as yet again I spend the entire week 'umming' and 'aahhing' over a choice of track only to lose out due to my own procrastination. So this week I try to make amends by offering a track now. Yes too late to be on the podcast but not too late to purge my soul.

The topic this week was of course 1967. And many fine choices there were - which you can download right here. Just a reminder then:

Bob Dylan - All Along The Watchtower (mp3) Buy

Patti Smith - All Along The Watchtower (mp3) Buy

U2 - All Along The Watchtower (mp3) Buy

And a video version by Neil Young as well you lucky things:

Ah, it's a shame you didn't get on, this would've been a nice addition.

Dylan's most famous, great 'lost' album...!
