I believe George Formby will be inducted next year!

[mala_D]

Bloody hope so! I LOVE George Formby!! But I've just dug out Traffic...I'll put my Formby double cd on later!

[No..this is perfectly true!!]

[American FLEET FAN No1]

Well if you want to be like that.......i'm going to put on Flanders and Swann......The Hippopotamus.......ah classic........lol

speaking of traffic,stevie winwood last year put out a new cd which i bought and is top class but it has now been re-released with a bonus disc.I wont be buying it again so a loyal fan misses out on extra music

this has also been done recently by the libertines & jet both cds i enjoy and bought when they first come out.they might screw a couple of quid from some but not me.

If you want a good contemporary rock band, Marillion have a new CD out in April. If their last one was anything thio go by this will be excellent. It's called Marbles and can be ordered in advance at www.marillion.com They are also realsing a new single in mid April. I urge you all to go out a buy it. Let'ssee some real musicions in the charts rather than these plastic manufactured pillocks!

'Arc of the Diver'. S-U-P-E-R-B album, AND the man still goes out on the road to do gigs !

Anybody else see Julia Davis dancing to Lavender on Nighty Night during the week? Well funny..but not quite as good as David Brent's famous dance!


Stevie Winwood was a great mate of Vivian Stanshall [one of my heroes], and Viv contributed to his albums.


If anyone's interested, I've just ordered a few Brian Eno CD's today:
"Apollo"; "Music for Airports"; "Music for Films".

Got a great jazz reissue [double CD repackage] a few days ago: The Don Rendell/Ian Carr Quintet: "Shades of Blue" and "Dusk Fire", early 1960s British jazz at its best!

Who could ever forget Viv Stanshall!

 

[mala_D]

Don't show Colin Zealster...he's been after a Bonzo CD for months

 

 

Recommended listening: Vivian Stanshall: Sir Henry At Rawlinson End - spoken word, with odd excerpts of music - very very funny, and very English!

The best Place i ever found for retro music was Tower Records in London......or downstairs at HMV in Oxford Street......in the glass walled room.......just look for the old fogies all gathered together............lol

[mala_D]

You'd get Flanders and Swann there, then !!

 

[Big J R]
