HIGHLY RECOMMENDED W/ PAUL COOK & THE CHRONICLES
* Providing the A's to the 5 HIGHLY RECOMMENDED Q's today is Paul Cook & The Chronicles– a singer-songer from the UK with a knack for writing catchy tunes, tunes that you should go dive into over on Bandcamp once you've checked the recs below.
#1 - WHAT IS THE ONE ALBUM (OR EP OR SONG) THAT YOU THINK SHOULD BE THE VERY NEXT MUSICAL THING THAT EVERYONE PRESSES PLAY ON THE NEXT TIME THEY FIND THEMSELVES THINKING “WHAT SHOULD I LISTEN TO NOW”?
Bedouine's album (first four songs).
Lump (sure everyone is listening to this already). I'm also currently totally obsessed with the Rapture song 'it takes time to be a man' (I know it's not new..).
Oh one? Ok Bedouine.
#2 - WHAT IS THE ONE MOVIE OR TV SHOW THAT YOU THINK SHOULD BE NEXT IN EVERYBODY’S NETFLIX QUEUE (OK, DOESN’T HAVE TO BE NETFLIX, WE’RE ALL INTERNET ADULTS HERE AND KNOW HOW TO FIND ANYTHING ONLINE, ONE WAY OR ANOTHER)?
Preacher on Amazon Prime.
It's so close to the graphic novels, and the fight scenes are the most realistic on TV/film I've seen since the first Bourne film, (very few edits)
#3. I (AND BY “I” I MEAN “THE PERSON THAT IS READING THIS”) AM GOING TO THE BOOK STORE (OK, PROBABLY AMAZON) TO FIND THE VERY NEXT BOOK THAT I WILL BE PUTTING SOME EXTREMELY VALUABLE ‘ME-TIME' ASIDE FOR. WHICH BOOK WOULD YOU GET, IF YOU WERE ME (AND, I SUPPOSE, YOU HADN’T ALREADY READ WHAT YOU’RE ABOUT TO SUGGEST)?
Batman: The Dark Knight Returns. It's a graphic novel, but it's the best batman story ever told, and possibly the best comic book/graphic novel ever written.
#4 - WHAT IS THE ONE WEBSITE (OR JUST ANY OLD INTERNET THING: APP, GIF, SERVICE, WHATEVER) THAT YOU WOULD GET REALLY DOWN IN THE DUMPS ABOUT IF IT WERE TO SUDDENLY GO AWAY?
Either Saturday Night Live clips on YouTube, or the channel 'Emergency Awesome' on YT (to explain all the things I missed in Game Of Thrones episodes..).
#5 - AND FINALLY… PLEASE GIVE ONE COMPLETELY UNAIDED RECOMMENDATION THAT YOU THINK EVERYONE SHOULD START DOING / USING / WATCHING / EATING / THINKING / QUITING / ETC-ING TO MAKE THEIR LIVES A LITTLE BIT MORE BETTER AND/OR BEARABLE.
Don't be a c**t. I think it encompasses so many things.
OK folks, there you have it. Things that Paul Cook & The Chronicles thinks you should consider incorporating into your day/life. Before you log off to go work on being less of a C-U-Next-Tuesday, make sure to follow Paul on the Facebook / Twitter and go do a musical deep dive over on the Bandcamp.
