Welcome to le grapevine.

This is an attempt to share with the interweb a few bits and bobs I have collected in my time as a music listener. While I wouldn’t promise to cater to all tastes, or be particularly disciplined with writing things, I’d like to think one day someone might read this, enjoy it, download a track or two, and go on to create a far superior music blog of their own.

So here goes.

Inaugural posts deserve timeless classics. Here are a couple with a twist.
