		<title>A Gorgeous New Year</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A gorgeous new year to all beings from a sofa-bed in the west end of Toronto. My year in independent music was a positive one. I was pleased to finish the video for ‘Love in London’ and come up with new songs about people who are, or were, important to me, about unpleasant musical collaborations [...]]]></description>

		<title>Shopping for Donuts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the UK people think of doughnuts as large, sticky confectionary items, either with a hole in the middle or closed-up and filled with jam. They’re bought in a bakery instead of a newsagent (where you might buy chocolate), generally for or by children – the only age group who can take that much sugar [...]]]></description>

		<title>How I Became a Mac Man</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My friend Scottie was unhappy with the greeting I had left on the answering machine. It was long and possibly self-indulgent. I decided to change it. I played the intro to a Fleetwood Mac song and added the customary ‘leave a message for *****’, in the hope that it would meet with Scottie’s approval. It [...]]]></description>

		<title>Machari CD Launch April 2nd 2011</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I’m singing in a 10-piece choir called Machari at a concert on April 2nd in downtown Toronto. We do Georgian music, that is to say, folk/work/church/wedding etc songs from the country south of Russia, north of Turkey, Armenia and Azerbaijan, east of the Black Sea. The harmony and structure of the songs is really different [...]]]></description>

		<title>Love in London</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to all the folks who watched the Gare Black video I was going on about last month. This time I really am in the picture (though not always intentionally!). My tune Love in London now has some clips of the less glamorous side of the city in 2009-11 accompanying it. The song features some [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Many Faces of Mr Black</title>
		<description><![CDATA[BW and G Black, September 1995 Back in 1995 I used to be a regular at the Black Rooster open stage in Toronto. That was where I first met Gary Black.

		<title>Emergence of a Jazz Composer</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A review of &#8216;Invisible World&#8217; by The Blow-up. I played this CD while a friend was visiting and he said ‘wow’. Another friend I merely showed it to and he also said ‘wow’. Underneath the first impressions I think there’s another important quality to this album, something that is so often lacking in the music [...]]]></description>
