4 d. ago The Spin | Dear cycling: a letter and a warning from cricket’s golden free

The last Tour de France on ITV is a stark reminder of the final terrestrial Test summerDear cycling, hello from 2005. It’s dusty back here, piles of unloved pagers, a cityscape of VHS towers and chest freezers packed with turkey twizzlers.It’s been a strange sort of summer – switchbacking in mood. On 6 July, London won the rights to hold the 2012 Olympics, a last-minute heist from under the Parisian nose; the next day terrorists murdered 57 people on the London transport network. The country was in a state of high alert, but the Australian cricket team, who had landed in early June, stayed to play in the Ashes.

1 week ago ‘He made the dust fly!’ Mick Jagger and others on 100 years of Clifton Chenier, the king of zydeco

Whether playing the Royal Albert Hall or a rooster fight, Chenier’s scorching Creole blues blew minds. As a tribute album is released, starry admirers and family members remember one of history’s great live performers‘Clifton Chenier was one of the most influential musicians to come out of Louisiana,” Mick Jagger tells me. “He turned so many people on to the wonderful, free spirited dance music of zydeco. He was a true original, a trailblazer.” Jagger acknowledges that while no music style can be attributed to one artist, “there is not a zydeco band who has not followed the template Chenier created”.Jagger is not engaging in hyperbole here: Clifton Chenier’s swaggering, accordion-driven sound introduced the Creole music of rural Louisiana to the world – now known as zydeco, the name derived either from the Creole pronunciation of haricots, or possibly a west African word for music-making.
