Vinyl LP pressing. 2022 release. It's not often that an artist gets to do a Bowie by consciously carving their personal epitaph into the grooves of their final LP. The Highest In The Land is that rarity of an album, and it could not have been made by a more brilliantly poetic and fearlessly sarcastic writer than Pat Fish, also known as The Jazz Butcher. There are many existentially charged moments on a record whose songs were written throughout the last seven years of Fish's life before his untimely passing in October 2021, aged only 63. Between moving personal songs like "Never Give Up" or "Goodbye Sweetheart" and more opaque ones such as the title track (the mysterious "Black Raoul", by the way, is Pat and Dhiren's cat), much of this album is imbued with righteous ire at the isolationist path taken by the UK in recent times. "Running On Fumes" and "Sebastian's Medication" may be the sharpest analyses of the state of Brexit Britain yet committed to song. Meanwhile, the former stands as an angry state-of-the-nation address, drawing parallels to the Weimar Republic by evoking Hermann Hesse and Mackie Messer, musically cloaked in a Dylan reference suggesting there is indeed blood on the tracks. By contrast, "Sea Madness" tells the heart-warming tale of an immigrant in tribute to Turkish George, a legendary presence on the Northampton music scene. It is not without irony that a career that began in witty defiance of the Thatcher years should end under the shadow of the Johnson era. Certainly, The Highest In The Land sounds as relevant to today as A Scandal In Bohemia did to 1984. Likewise, in musical terms, it feels like the closing of a circle, based around live recordings by a core band of Fish, Dave Morgan on drums and Tim Harries on bass, augmented by an array of musicians including founder member Max Eider.

Love these washcloths
Color: Dark Color Series, Style: Mesh Pattern
My husband and I really like these wash cloths. They have held up well in the wash. They maintain there color and do noe bleed. They have maintained their course texture on one side and are still soft on the other. We had a wash cloth similar to these but it became soft and ineffective after several washes. We are happy with our purchase.

Great product
Color: Dark Color Series, Style: Mesh Pattern
Lathers nicely and doesn’t stay wet when you hang to dry. The exfoliating side is very nice. Machine washable and a great substitute for a loofah. The most I’ve seen in a pack is 6 so I was happy to see an 8 pack for cheaper than the others I’ve seen.
