    The phrase ‘Modesty Forbids’ always struck me The phrase ‘Modesty Forbids’ always struck me as such a funny contradiction. I would use it myself when, for example, asked about some of my achievements say “I could go on, but modesty forbids”. When I told Peter Curzon at @StormStudio who did all the art work my idea for the album title he immediately got it. The front cover picture says it all, the anonymous peacock. It was a joy to write and record this album and to be able to work with so many fine musicians and songwriters many of whom I have worked with before plus a couple of newcomers. If you get as much pleasure listening to the album as I did making it then I’ll be very happy. I’m very much looking forward to taking Heart Full Of Songs on the road again where I get to play and tell some of the stories behind the songs. Pre-order ‘Modesty Forbids’ from lojinx.com

    Again at last night’s ‘Christmas Without Tears Again at last night’s ‘Christmas Without Tears’ charity gig with the great Harry Shearer. Harry and his wife, Judith Owen have held this event every year since 2005. The proceeds this year go to a very worthy cause The West London Mission. FYI Harry provided one of the voices for the cartoon ‘Animalympics’ for which I provided the music. It was a great night with fabulous guests.

    Me and youngest son Alex last night at the ’Lege Me and youngest son Alex last night at the ’Legends Of Football’ event honouring the great Arsene Wenger. This all came about through my involvement with Nordoff Robbins. It was a wonderful evening raising money for a tremendous cause. It was a complete surprise to Alex who had no idea what I’d invited him too. Meeting Arsene made him so happy and me also.

    I went to Abbey Road Studios last Thursday initial I went to Abbey Road Studios last Thursday initially to do an interview with Sirius XM (The Beatles Channel) and talk about the Abbey Road album on the 50th anniversary of its release. I got to hear the new version of the album with Miles Showel, who mastered it, which was absolutely mind blowing. But the icing on the cake was at a party that evening held in studio 1 meeting up with Ringo again and Paul, who I hadn’t seen in decades. It was a fab day indeed.
