  1. Some notable omissions: Rory Gallagher... journo asked Hendrix at the Isle of Wight "What is it like to be the greatest guitarist in the world?"... "Dunno, ask Rory Gallagher" was his reply Ritchie Blackmore... invented the heavy rock genre, learned to be a showman with Screaming Lord Sutch and Jerry Lee Lewis touring in the early days Big Jim Sullivan... taught Ritchie and Jimmy Page Shuggie Otis...son of Johnny, big impact as a blues protege when he recorded his first album when 17 in the mid 70s but got into some substance abuse, saw him at Manchester Academy about 5 yrs ago and was not disappointed Robin Trower... never stopped working still recording and touring to this day, he is now in his 70s, now well into a bluesy sound
  2. I like The Sweet They came from the same West London stable as Deep Purple but Chini-Chap got into them and made them a Glam Band. They went back to their roots with Sweet Fanny Adams and Desolution Boulevard in the mid 70s
  3. George Osborne... chuck him in, his austerity hair shirt mentality is at the root of all this
  4. Something about players having Covid... it was on the local news, didn't take much notice
  5. First gig was Jeremy Beadle's Bickershaw Festival and my last was Samantha Fish at Nottingham Rock City just before lock down. That's about 50 years of Rocking around the Clock
  6. Leicester tried to postpone tonight
  7. Fingers crossed for you mate. I got the earlier model and it was the sickest I have ever been and there were knock on blood effects, i'm hoping that this new one is less nasty although it is more infectious. i went to a professional body meeting a week and a half ago and out of a couple of dozen people 16 have now come down with Covid, the ones who have not (like me) have had the bugger in the last 3-4 months.
  8. Cold roast pheasant sandwiches in my pack up too. The supermarkets probably don't sell it as they would have to put a warning on the packet... "Contains lead" Came home and a couple of dead pheasants were hanging form my outside light, like a threat to the townie form the locals but I knew my opposite neighbour had been out shooting.
  9. Washed down with lashings of Blue Nun
  10. 63 69 Looks a bit like the Labour Deputy
  11. White Love was the renamed "Here We Go Again" also known as HWGA
  12. At least we still have Peppa Pig
  13. I still reckon an Omicron sounds like a Dr Who baddie... John Pertwee and the Curse of the Omicrons
  14. Not everyone is as lucky. MediMove laxative is an experience to savour, lost count after the 20th sh1t
  15. Took 5 weeks for me to get my 2 week target referral, after they had found a plastic tube for a blood test. Thankfully found nowt
  16. How was I to know she was Epstein fodder?
