Dragons

W/C 13th April 2026

Nothing fancy in the notes this week, just an explanation as to the track I have chosen for the title.

It's a Paddy McAloon song, recorded by Jimmy Nail as part of the Crocodile Shoes project, which was a TV show about a songwriter in the North East. Had I not mentioned it as part of a discussion about Prefab Sprout it may never have come up in conversation, but that would also have meant that I wouldn't be booked out for what promises to be a special evening on the 8th October.

Thanks Shane, life is indeed a circular ride.

Stay safe

Anthony Short

I have been tinkering with audio since my mid-teens, recording songs & producing content for friends.

Post university I embraced the world of retail, firstly in supermarkets and later in & around the music instrument industry.

After 20 years or so, I took a sideways step into podcasting and began a venture called ashortstories, which helps in the development & production of podcasts for anyone that has a story to tell.
