About Me
- Sid Smith
- I’m a freelance writer from North East England living in Whitley Bay. As well as writing sleevenotes for independent and major record labels, web content management, and contributions to both regional and national press, I’m the author of a critically acclaimed rock biography, In The Court of King Crimson (2001), and Northstars (2005), Granada TV’s Royal Television Award-winning series profiling musicians from the North East region. I’ve been blogging since 1999, commenting on music in particular and the arts in general, as well as whatever takes my fancy.

Wonderful. Thank you Sid!
Morning Tim,
many thanks for your kind words. It was a gorgeous morning and the light was weird ensuring that the bulk of the pictures were useless but I'm pleased with what I managed to rescue. I love this time of year.
gorgeous sid! the colours at this time of year are really different and i like that i forget about that until the autumn rolls around again and the sun is lower on the horizon at a different time of day than i'm used to and somehow it makes everything look and feel different. steven
