Full Moon, West Coast by Eric Wilson Barker | Poetry Magazine

Enw anghyfarwydd i fi, bardd Califfornia, cysylltiedig ag ardal Big Sur. Mae John Cowper Powys yn ei ganmol, ac yn ôl Henry Miller, yr oedd yn “good poet”. #barddoniaeth https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poetrymagazine/browse?contentId=25060

- Dreamhouse gan Siv Disa

Dewis braidd ar hap o adran sêl @LogoFiasco - enw newydd i fi, a wnes i ddim gwrando ar ei Bandcamp cyn archebu, ond mae jyst y peth am nos Sul ar ôl diwrnod o chwynnu'r ardd a phendwmpian dros lyfr John Cowper Powys.

Okay since I’m now catching up on Tommy (after listening to Hommy), what are some other concept/rock opera albums I need to listen to?

@buffyleigh One of my favourites is Jon Anderson's “Olias of Sunhillow” from 1976.

Not really my jam, but nice to see the Kings of Leon putting a Welsh title on their live album recorded at the Cae Ras

Ah, it’s a special edition of their new studio album, which includes a bonus disc from the Wrexham shows last year.

- Elephantasia

Erioed wedi clywed hwn o'r blaen, ac mae’n fendigedig. Roedd yn amhosibl cael copi tan yn ddiweddar — mae copiau ail-law o'r gwreiddiol o 1972 ar discogs am £85 i tua £150 — ond mae Earth Recordings wedi’i ail-ryddhau o'r diwedd, a chipiais i gopi o @LogoFiasco yr wythnos 'ma.

Newydd sylwi bod Earth wedi wneud yr un peth gyda albym cyntaf Dave Evans, sy gyda fi ar CD, ond ddim ar feinyl. Och.

Mae ofn Earth Records arna i. 'Swn i’n dechrau casglu eu stwff fel ydw i gyda ambell i label bach arall, fyddwn i mewn trwbwl. Mae eu catalog yn eang, ac yn ddwfn, ac mae popeth ynddo yn dda, o Anne Briggs i Bagpuss. https://earthrecordings.bandcamp.com/merch

Mae fy mhartner yn athrylith.

Rydyn ni wedi bod heb fwrdd yn yr ardd gefn ers i’r hen un (ffeindiwyd mewn sgip!) gwympo’n racs ar ôl blynyddoedd maith o wasanaeth.

Heddiw, mae hi wedi adeiladu hwn ma’s o sgrapiau pren oedd yn y sied.

Ddim y bwrdd mwya pert yn y byd, ond yn gadarn iawn.

If you have not yet found your way to the in this month, go and treat yourself to a very special exhibition. The sent the Canaletto painting as a historical marker of the painting's evacuation to during . Naturally, the curator whipped a good selection of the library's own art treasures out to show off the cream of 200+ years of landscape art from and in Wales. As a personal special treat, I discovered a Josef Herman ink drawing that I displayed in my own exhibition nine years ago.

View down the gallery with C20 paintings lining the wall.
A fantastically moody photograph from Blaenau Ffestiniog amidst landscape paintings of south Wales valleys communities.
Sticky notes by visitors, some containing small landscape sketches.

A nice Picador edition of Robert Coover’s “Pricksong and Descants”, from the bus-stop library in Llandinam, Powys.

…and on a WWOOF stay (working as a volunteer on an organic smallholding) I found Annie Dillard’s “Pilgrim at Tinker Creek”, a life-changing book. Also in Powys, near Llanidloes.

We tested this on Google Translate at the time, and of course the Welsh is a literal (and correct) translation of the English, but the English has no punctuation, which changes everything.
