    Just heard an interesting interview on the radio with George Monbiot talking to Jeremy Vine and they played a song, Such A Thing As Society written by the former and performed by Folk Artist, Ewan McLennan from a collaborative album of theirs called Breaking The Spell Of Loneliness.
    This video explains what it is all about, he is basically saying that Humans are a gregarious and altruistic species by nature and politics should reflect this by turning against the "no society" ideology of the Thatcher years that was perpetuated to some extent by New Labour...

    There is music on the video too if you want to skip the chat!

    The one and only Lewis Allan Reed was born on this day in Brooklyn in 1942.
    I posted a few of his songs on the anniversary of his passing in October, but this is another one of his best with some profound words of wisdom...
