music in the shed



Jon ..... Andrew WK`s Party Hard was reckoned by some to bear a striking resemblance to the Kwik Fit advert on TV ...... so here is the advert , and Andrew WK ....... see if you can tell which is which .......
 

...and finally ( again ) , I hope this is a bit more R&R for you ...... not BRMC I`m afraid ........ Eoin Anderson ( not Ian obviously ) on vocals , and The Pork Beast on bass ....... If I tried to stand like that , I`d probably need help getting back up straight again .........

I remember Humphrey Lyttleton musing, on 'I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue',
"I love TV adverts.
What was that one with chimps dressed up as humans?
Oh, yes, Kwik Fit."
 

Saw The Dictators live in `79 supporting The Stranglers ........ They were already onstage performing this track whilst we were still queuing up outside waiting to get in ....... " Handsome Dick " Manitoba on vocals ; Ross The Boss on guitar ; and Mark " The Animal " Mendoza on bass .......
 

Still with The Dictators ........ I`ve a feeling I may have put this on before , but it was quite a while ago ...... If you remember , sorry about that ..... If you don`t remember , then here it is ........... A cover of the Iggy and The Stooges track btw ......
 
Right, nothing for it, big time now..... my slow warm up on bass song.... love Ramones... i do do Gabba Gabba Hey... j
 

Seeing Isobel Campbell performing with Belle and Sebastian is an excuse to play something from her collaborations with Mark Lanegan ...... with whistling to put Roger Whittaker to shame .......

Seeing them perform at Glastonbury this year reminded me of this from a couple of years ago .....
......."There is only one thing in life worse than being talked about, and that is not being talked about"..... have a near 3 1/2 inch tome of the famous man... more so the Ken Russell "Salome's last Dance" modern idiom on his story that diverts, ( cost a fortune to move from VHS to available DVD ) hard to beat a good divert, in mind and bike ride... King Crimson did not settle the forming mind of mine, then came Argent, about holding your head, why would i do that, i know where it is... you keep diverting Tony, good for the later life refusal to fade into the old....j
 

Jon ...... was never a great fan of King Crimson either ...... remember them doing " Cat Food" on Top of the Pops in 1970 .... it reached 54 in the UK singles chart , unbelievably ......... and I bought the Earthbound ( live in Pretoria SA ) album , mainly for 21st Century Schizoid Man ......... that version goes on forever ( 11 mins ) ...... but here is a short clip of them performing it at Hyde Park , in front of a crowd of unsuspecting Rolling Stones fans .......

At least Robert Fripp seems to have mellowed out / developed a sense of humour in his old age ........ When Greg Lake decided to leave King Crimson , Fripp decided to have Elton John as replacement vocalist , then changed his mind at the last moment ..... shame , it probably would have worked well .........
