Talking of Pink Floyd (well, somebody was)... I have it on good authority that if you play the film "The Wizard of Oz" and start playing "Dark Side of the Moon" when the MGM Lion roars (using the latter as the soundtrack to the former) you gain a wholly new perspective on both works...

Tony you are so full of trivia you should certainly spend more time down in the sheds *wink* *thumbup*

 

Strange fact you have offer to the shed all the same but you are welcome to come again 😬 *wink* *tongue*

it is better to keep your mouth closed and let people think you are a fool than to open it and remove all doubt.

i grew up down the street with stevie ray vaughan, i've got a lot of rare stuff of him performing

 

Steve, can I have your babies *eek* 😳 *eek* 😳 alternatively, your address so I can come round and nick your SRV stuff.

 

I was fated never to see SRV live - I had tickets to a concert in Dublin which was cancelled when the drugs took hold, I then bought tickets to see him in London, which never happened because of the crash ☹️ ☹️ ☹️

 

In my CD player at the moment:

 

Desert Sessions 9 and 10

Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Detroit Cobras

White Stripes

Sigur Ros

Alabama 3

John Cale

Television

Creatures

PIL

Louisiana Red

 

*cool*

The The - Just got the remastered early albums - I love "Burning Blue Soul"

Tears For Fears - Roland's still going, Curt's still crashing AC's in the states

Cocteau Twins - All that era of 4AD artists really, but the Twins 'specially

Chilli Peppers - Everything, they can't be beaten

Jane's Addiction - Porno for Pyro's is just excellent, their version of "sympathy" does me in

Stone Roses - 12" singles compilation

Billy Bragg - Still young and angry, even if we know he's old and middle class now

The "best of " Rough Trade compilation box set, all the stuff i couldn;t afford when i was studeing, the Pixies still sound fresh, forget your White Stripes kids

 

Still on shopping list: The Coral, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Snow Patrol

 

I'm out of my mind, but feel free to leave a message See Barbarella here...

No one's mentioned Beefheart so far. Surely I can't be the only one *confused*

Ah, Captain Beefheart - I remember being allowed to stay up late to watch the Old Grey Whistle Test when I was a kid/young teenager, and seeing an incredible performance by Captain Beefheart. Of course I could never remember the name of the song, but always hoped that some day I would come across it. Imagine my delight when it turned up on the Old Grey Whistle Test DVD last year *thumbup* 😬 *thumbup* 😬 Upon the My-Oh-My, quite outstanding (even has a difficult-to-recognise Ry Cooded doing spooky things on guitar *thumbup*) *cool* *cool* *cool*

 

I still have my tickets for the SRV concert that never was, I couldn't bring myself to give them back for a refund ☹️

 

Steve, it sounds like you don't need it, but I have lots of SRV on CD and vinyl (including the box set and some bootleg vinyl), if you ever want copies let me know.

 

Tony, after I read what I'd posted, I wondered if anyone would pick up on the drugs bit *thumbup* 😬

Fast go fast.....slow go slow.

 

I also saw that Whistle Test performance, Pat, and it's pure weird Beefheart magic. Tell me, good captain, how does it feel when you're driven away from your own steering wheel? 😬

 

I'm not allowed to put Beefheart or FZ on unless Mrs M is out of earshot. And clearly, the kids have to be somewhere else too (certainly for the latter).

 

I am allowed to put on Abba's greatest hits in the family car though. And it's fab. 😬

Yeah Bill

 

The flares & beeny hat went out the door too.... But the music lives on in the heart *smile*

 

The opening bars of "Fools Gold" still makes the hairs on the back of me neck stand, and the hand reach to turn it up to "11" *cool*

Also great fan site www.gulliblebum.com
