Hurrr

Now that you’re on close terms with Mr Del perhaps you could ask him to be a bit more substantive on the reasoning behind his negative and dismissive comments on Steely Dan?

I am of course being t […]

That depends ultimately on how this guitar is suited to you. It’s possible you could buy a new guitar but you could be unhappy with it.
I was in your neck of the woods yesterday (Salisbury?) and visited a music s […]

Pickled eggs and cheese rolls! That was a restaurant.

I preferred to rub it myself or, ideally, have it rubbed for me. Hurrr.

(29p, 1975, Croydon Greyhound and Motörhead for a quid and a bit).

Well done. I just admire you for making the effort on such a dire weather weekend and hope you enjoy it all. (Well not the weather, obv’s).

On a less crude note but with the same objective, I have just read that the soon to be released Steely Dan Northeast Corridor CD is ‘set to street’. Who makes up this crap?

I just thought she’d shat.

Are the top three placements being golded, silvered and bronzed yet?

Also looking at the rather pixelated cover of the band on stage, Walter does not appear to be amongst them. If not that’s a real shame but looking forward to both live albums nonetheless.

Heckmondwike like, get yer arse over to Cobbydale. You’ll be made most unwelcome.

As an Afterword ‘hard man’ I wasn’t going to join in this big Jessies, big blouses fest, but when I hear this, for reasons I cannot explain, I often find myself with something in my eye

Wherever I Lay This Twat?

Ah, so it was you in the cape and stockings with the Rickenbacker. Nice.

Well yes. He had no melody to follow and was incapable of creating or at least sustaining one. Unless you like the sound of an elephant running rampage in an antique shop!

As Steve says above, his playing on ‘A Remark You Made’ and much of his work with Joni, was just sublime. But his live bass solos with Weather Report were often a ‘ please make it stop’ moment. Especially around […]

I would expect they are well schooled in this kind of shit and are the apple of mummy’s eyes.

Hopkins is a lamentable, calculating piece of shit but please tell me I am right (or wrong) that Waddle once said on TV “I never not said that”, or similar?

It could even have been imaginatively titled ‘Now Thats What I Call Wordsworth 45’.
