Abstract Thursday (7th April 2022)

It isn't too difficult to identify this abstract as a dish, or pan as it has a long handle. It was inherited from some family friends decades ago and spent many years in my conservatory before the transparent roof was replaced. It got so blisteringly hot in there that one of the tiny tiles from the circumference sprang out of the grouting and never fitted back in due to expansion.

Thanks to Ingeborg for hosting Abstract Thursday. No theme this week.

Lozarhythm Of The Day:
Lisa O'Neill - All The Tired Horses (2022)
Bob Dylan's album Self Portrait (1970) opens with this self-penned song on which he does not appear. A couple of lines are repeated in circular fashion by a quartet of harmony vocalists. Lisa O'Neill was twelve years away from being born at the time, but her version is played over the climactic finale of the last ever Peaky Blinders, still reverberating in my head four days later.
Lisa O’Neill has said: “It is not an overstatement to say that it was beyond my wildest dreams to be ‘Ordered by the Peaky F**king Blinders’ to cover this beautiful song from Bob Dylan. We recorded this version of All The Tired Horses in an old horse stables in Cabinteely, South Dublin over the space of two days,” she continued. “We recorded by constant candlelight as a dear friend was dying at the time. This all contributed to the energy and the charge of the final track. That friend has since passed. I wish to dedicate this song to Mick O’Grady – The Long Distance Kid – 1943-2022.”
She added: “To have any part in this long anticipated finale of the most evocative script I have ever seen depicted on television has done no less than reconfirm my faith in the mysteries of this creative and elusive universe.”
O’Neill’s own song Blackbird also featured in the fourth episode of series six of Peaky Blinders. (notes adapted from NME article)
