One of a Kind
First of all, happy new year, as this is the first time I’ve updated my blog since 2024, and, truth be told, the first time I’ve updated it in a while. Unfortunately, however, my new year began with some fairly sad news when I read, whilst sat in a pub on New Year’s Eve, about the passing of Radio DJ, Johnnie Walker. Although we all knew it had been coming as he had been ill for a while, and had recently hung up his headphones for good, I remarked that I don’t think I’d ever been quite so gutted about the passing of someone I’d never met.

I discovered an unexpected, tangled, fascinating backstory filled with inspiration, betrayal, and reinvention. This isn't a song; it is a journey.
