I’ve been recording videos and posting them on my Facebook page every Thursday during lockdown. Very low-tech, using an effects pedal, loop station and my phone. Mainly my own stuff, but also covers of Beefheart, Soft Machine, Caravan and Ken Dodd! They’re now up on YouTube – look up “Steve Kettley entertains at home”. Here’s #5 – my version of a Henry Cow tune.
I’m currently in the throes of recording two new CDs, with Savourna Stevenson and Orange Claw Hammer. Occasional single trips to the studio, rather than a concentrated block. With any luck they should both be available in the Spring of 2020.
OCH CD, “Cooks the Beef”, now available at Bandcamp:

Excellent review by Steve Froy of Captain Beefheart Radar Station:
