Junior Choice
I was playing some records last Saturday morning when my little girl decided she wanted to pick a record to play next. So she started pulling out albums at random and when she handed me this, saying "I want this one, Daddy!" I had to grab the camera.
I've no idea why she chose that particular one, but having her ask me to play a Roxy Music album was one of my proudest moments as a father so far.

Sensing a blog post in the making I let her carry on pulling out records — with no prompting from me, I swear. And I think she showed remarkably good taste for a two year old.
Classic choice this one.

I don't think this one has been played in 20 years but it may now have a new life as a kiddie's favourite.

OK, some more Roxy Music then. That's my girl.

Now I know what to do next time I'm stumped for a post idea.

Brilliant!
I can't believe I've been reading your blog(s) that long, I can remember when you posted about becoming a dad.
Blimey.
Wow what good taste, you're doing good as a father. Pinky Blue not played for twenty years? Shame!
her reaction (some years from now) to her holding up the Country Life lp should... be priceless!
Lovely .. just lovely.
Lovely .. just lovely.
Random music selection the way it should be!
Great, funny . . . and way cool! Thanks for the smile and the sweet -- as always -- tunes.
Lovely...
BTW, Ihought a lot of you and your blog when I went to see Terence davies' movie "Of Time and the City" on his beloved city of Liverpool.
Cheers
Haven't seen that one but I loved 'Distant Voices, Still Lives' - even though it was profoundly depressing.
What an idea...now I should ask my wife's rabbits (ALL 6 OF THEM) to choose a track from the Festive Fifty (and I've already done Harvey's Rabbit, so Jefferson Airplane is the obvious choice).
Thae pics are just about the cutest thing I've ever seen
