I wondered if he still lived in Southampton
Saw him live in Princess Street Gardens in Edinburgh a few years ago, brilliant musician [Post edited 23 Sep 21:36]

Fantastic musician. Good luck to him as he recovers.
One of my friends had a stroke in their early 40s and unfortunately it was caught early enough. |  |

I’ll be honest I had no idea he lived in Southampton. I saw him many years ago at Gilles Peterson’s Dingwall show and he was amazing, if have him up there with people like Omar, Sade and Chris Amoo from the real thing as one of the best soul singers this country has produced | | | |

I'd put myself on a record ban till the end of the year the other day, then realised the new Moses Boyd is out in October so pre-ordered it, and found Raphael Saadiq's instant vintage for under £50 on eBay which is a f*cking bargain so bought that too.
I think i have a problem  | | | |

Ha
Given up on banning myself from buying anything, I've made statements like that to Mrs S before, she just laughs as she knows that won''t happen
There's about 5 lps out in October that I want and I bought 2 before going to work this morning, they'll probably be another Adidas SPZL release before Christmas as well. I might struggle to pay the mortgage but at least I'll have some nice trainers on whilst listening to records | |

Yeah i know im just kidding myself to be honest. Saying that the SPZL range is easy for to avoid as i gave up on adidas years ago as its played out. Basically become a uniform so not my thing.
I’ll spend my money on expensive shoes like sebago now, or boots like fracap. Definitely more of the ivy style than casualclone.
Saying that of course for the skates I’ll be digging out my barbour x engineered garments black parka again, hands down that was the most expensive cost I’ve ever bought | | | |

Jeez , what a pair of peacocks ! 🤣
I hope the young man makes a full recovery. One of the few current musicians I've actually heard (of). |  | | |

Personally, adidas trainers being casualclone depends on which ones you get. Gazelles are the worst culprit mainly because the soles are dogsh1t and fall apart really quickly. If you go for the more niche versions then you can still look pretty smart and unique.
Worst casualclone fashion sin is Weekend Offender. Particularly their rip off Aquascutum stuff. Don't know how they get away with it |  |

Haven’t bought a pair of gazelles since I was a teenager, Stan Smith’s used to be the trainer of my choice but not now. Cote are a favourite, a tan suede version of SS’s and I’ll dig out some Forest Hill’s every now and again. Still have a pair of Nastase tournament edition from 2008, was genuinely shocked when I saw how much some that are in no better condition than mine were being listed for.
Otherwise a pair of ZX600’s or RedWing boots as it gets colder | |

Weekend offender is horrendous tat, misses the point that if you're buying a house check from Dak's, Aquascutum or Burberry you're paying for the material and the weave as much as the pattern. But they charge £70 then print on polyester. People are absolute mugs if they buy that.
My current go to places for stuff are john simon's (online but they also have a shop in london) and Kafka Mercentile.
Both do really short line stuff and it's different to most of what you see people wearing, which at the end of the day is the point right? | | | |

Just had a look at the John Simons website, some very nice pieces on there
Really good price for the Baracuta G12, paid way more for mine when I bought it a couple of years ago
That herringbone tweed overcoat is very nice
Didn't realise Alan Paine was still going, their factory used to be in Godalming and a friend of mines mum and dad both worked there, and met there in the 1960's, she was a machinist and he was a time and motion manager | |

I love their over coats, one day I’ll treat myself to one but given how expensive they are I’d probably go in store to make sure the sizing is correct.
Alan Paine do some lovely knitted polos to be fair, again not cheap but very nice | | | |

I've been thinking about buying a decent overcoat for a while and that one is very nice. Not phased by the cost at it will last for years. If I get a big refurb job that I'm quoting for, then I could be tempted by that or something similar
Bought a couple of Norse Projects merino polo's recently, expensive but really nice | |

I get my polos from here, annoyingly they’ve stopped doing the four button shirt collar ones I really like, half tempted to take one to a tailor and get a few custom made to have as replacements
