She's My Witch
Alderley Edge has a long association with the mystical and esoteric. Legend has it King Arthur sleeps below the ground, inside the cliff at the Edge, waiting for the moment England needs him to come back and save it. 'Yo, Arthur- think that moment might be coming' you might be thinking. Merlin, Arthur's wizard, is associated with the site too. This little house is on the side of the road near The Wizard Pub, a strange little one up, one down affair. Today Alderley Edge is mainly associated with footballers, who live in enormous houses dotted around the village and frequent the wine bars and brasseries. People say the charity shops often have excellent, barely worn stock as a result. This may be rumour though- like Arthur's supposed return. Maybe if he does emerge he'll come bedecked in Balenciaga and Prada on his way to tackle Johnson and Farage with Excalibur.
Fireflies have a single out, a spooky, slow and smokey cover of a Kip Tyler song- She's My Witch, a song Arthur and Merlin could have sung. In this case vocals are from Dani Cali with Nina Walsh and Franck Alba. It's in the new series of Killing Eve (which I haven't seen but people are saying isn't as good as the first one. Ain't it always that way).
Kip Tyler featured here many years ago, back in the Friday night rockabilly series, a 50s rock 'n' roller and bongo player.

Friday Night Is Rockabilly Night 15

'Christ, that sun's hot
Yes that's right sir'.
Just got back from camping in the Peak District (near Ashbourne) an hour or two ago. Have frogmarched two children over moorland today to visit the Nine Sisters stone circle. They loved it. Although some of us are quite red now.
And I just realised it's Friday, so here's your weekly slab of rockabilly, to be washed down with whisky and rye, and plenty of ice. This is Kip Tyler's Rumble Rock, from 1958, to keep the temperature high. I google imaged 'hot' and 'rockabilly' and the above picture appeared. A compilation worth looking out for I reckon.
