    I've already honoured him on this thread on the date of his passing, but the greatest Bassist of all, John Entwistle was also born today in 1944...

    Absolutely superb band and what an ensemble of talent including P.P. Arnold on that particular song.

    Well if we're going Ogdens, here's the witty side of the band



    Fantastic musical called "All or Nothing" which I saw in Chester recently. It's in Southampton 27/28 of this month. Great piece of theatre. Very 60's, though the son I went with got it too. Not just a juke-box play with Small Faces music, but tells the desperately sad story of a young musical genius called Stevie Marriott.

    Can't believe that she wasn't on the site that I source info...

    She was a unique artist who wrote some fine songs of her own but her voice really does justice to this Ray Davies classic and she kind of made it her own...

    Came across this live version of Little Wing by Jimi Hendrix. Only this is Jimi himself doing it live at the Albert Hall in London. Normally, I don't give a hoot about live versions because they are often so badly played, but if Jimi couldn't do a live version then nobody could. Another bloke who toured so much that he was pretty much as good on tour as he was in the studio. A nice variation on the album track from Axis: Bold As Love:
