Hi de Hi Who Am The Only One

I’ve been ‘offended’ and ‘outraged’ by the casual waycism on display here.

Not even The Young Mexican Puppeteer?

He knew his limits.

Lovely piece. Three of my best pals at Uni played in the Glasgow Uni team that held the mighty East Stirling (or Stirling Albion, I can’t recall) to an away 1-1 draw in the Cup. My mate Tom scored the equaliser […]

The Devo version is stupendous. They tell a great story about playing it to Jagger in his hotel room, hoping to get his permission to release it. After a few seconds, Mick gets up and starts dancing delightedly to […]

Whipcrack away ….

Thanks. I have it – thought it may have been another update.
Agree with you about Stills burning out his talent. Had the great pleasure of a day trip to Leeds with him about 20 years ago to watch Test cricket. […]

Ferry has had some magnificent interpretations of other’s songs over the course of his career. He croons beautifully on River of Salt and his cover of Positively 4th Street completely transforms the […]

What ‘deluxe’ version of 4 Way Street is this, rob?

If we’re allowing greatest hits albums, then The Dust Blows Forward by Captain Beefheart has to go in., though probably stretching the definition of hit.
You’ve then got the great Zoot Horn Rollo, Ry Cooder and […]

Watching Man City and note that the City fans have adapted the old DC5 hit to ‘Guard-I-ola’

Agree with these choices and, HP is correct, Decade is the obvious choice, not least because the fiery Hurricane (his greatest guitar piece) is on it.
Among my many Neil boots is an absolutely terrific 3 cd set […]

Stills is a fabulous player – his solo show at Shep Bush a few years ago was astounding. That being said, I do find Neil a more exciting player and, of course, he has much better choons.

I’d hoped fellow bore JC would give some support.
He must be having his afternoon nap.

We have quite forgot the piss.

Among the great covers is The Chieftains with Jagger. Haunting version.

As a ’60s bore, can I also add Disraeli Gears to the list.
Great variety in Eric’s playing.

EKITN is the obvious choice for Neil, but I’d also nominate Zuma, mainly for the variety of styles contained within. Languorous on Cortez, attacking on Don’t Cry, spiky on Danger Bird, tasteful acoustic on Pardon my Heart.
