Track of the Week - 21 May 2023
This is convoluted so strap in!
We had a few days away last week. Up north. Reason being that I'd booked Mrs Tea at Johnny's a bird of prey experience at the Thirsk Birds of Prey Centre. Near Thirsk.
Great place. If you're ever that way it comes highly recommended.
Mrs Tea at Johnny's got to hold or fly ten birds including american kestrel, red-footed falcon and bald eagle. And a black vulture.
Vultures are great by the way. Nature's bio-hazard team. They get a bad press. Many breeds are facing extinction, often due to poisoning. I blame Disney's Jungle Book, and Bedknobs and Broomsticks.
The black vulture in question was called Marvin. Marvin being the name of the original paranoid android in Douglas Adams' comedy sci-fi classic The Hitchhikers' Guide to the Galaxy of course.
Which finally brings us to this Radiohead single. Paranoid Android reached number three in 1997 and is from the multi-platinum selling album OK Computer.
