Thanks @Neela now I have a mental image of the cast of ‘Seinfeld’ as the principals of the next Bond movie…

This is a very lively mental image, Nick Drake taking a penalty kick

Ahem.. point of order but ‘Pink Moon’ is 1974. Edit: No, it’s 1972, silly Slotbadger

I would definitely go for Bridge Over Troubled Water here, I think if you’re going by ‘feel’ that’d be 1970, right there 🙂

I remember from when I lived in Falmouth, the bloke who owned the Trago Mills stores used to take out full page ads in the Packet bewailing the evil machinations and conspiratorial devilry being carried out in Brussels.

That must have been the fantastic Guy Pratt. V much recommend his autobiography if you haven’t read it yet

I wonder, are we heading for the 60th anniversary remixed Please Please Me in 2023? And what will they do come 2027 for Pepper?

I prefer 20 Greatest Hits

Not directly from an interview but there’s this chestnut…
“Hi, I’m Peter Grant, I manage Led Zeppelin”
Dylan: “Man, I don’t come to you with MY problems”

Pretty much all of the Fabs 1964 JFK press conference is quick fire gags

I’ve heard the Auden bollocks line attributed to Marianne Faithfull

Crikey, if managing Led Zep wasn’t enough he was a supernatural gumshoe as well? You wouldn’t want to be a ghost who got in his bad books, would you

“I’ve steered clear of this thread because I can’t communicate how much Ride meant to me in 1991-2.”

That was me too. Saw ‘Chelsea Girl’ on The Chart Show the week it came out and bought it immediately, fol […]

We did bump into each other on the Archers FB group, didn’t we Sal, but despite your presence I had to quietly unfollow the online Ambridge brigade as there’s only so much analysis of Will Grundy a chap can cope […]

I saw John Cooper Clarke in Berlin this week. I would therefore nominate the amphetamine Maserati drone of Evidently Chickentown

There’s a version of I’m A King Bee, very early on, dunno if it was ever officially released

Maybe one night she fell into conversation with a curmudgeonly old git at a bar and they planned a collaboration of words and music, but both got too battered to remember the next day and the world was denied a […]

Bit of Spacemen 3 for Raab and Leadsom, for a start.

I remember my dad telling me about his days as a house doctor at Ashford hospital in the mid-late 1970s. He was an orthopaedic surgeon and had his fair share of “I’d rather not have the Paki doctor please” from […]

“The front-runner’s team is actively trying to keep him out of it for now”

On what – ketamine? a line or two of Gove? A puff or three of Leadsom? A drag of Stewart?
