    Brilliant stuff. I love Dave Edmunds, and Nick Lowe is of course a registered genius.

    Went a bit Manfred Mann doo wah diddy after hearing a few of the old tracks. Started reaquainting myself with their history, and all that. So here's a couple from when Paul Jones decided he wanted to be an all-round singer/entertainer [a mistake, but anyway] and left the band, and Mike D'Abo came in. Ha Ha Said The Clown in glorious black and white, in front of a very disciplined audience [I think they are German youngsters]:


    and Mighty Quinn [Quinn the Eskimo] from the same TV gig.

    Wasn't going to post this but there are some great clips of 60's people in this video. There's some stuff from, what looks like, Cannes or Nice, and some shots of Hastings of all places, I think. All backing up that great late 60's hit Something In The Air, by Thunderclap Newman:

    Wasn’t that Pete Townshend’s only number 1 (useless trivia)?

    No Wikipedia there. One of those useless music trivia facts that lodge in my brain and pop out from time to time .... :emoticon-0100-smile

    Yes, I know the affliction well. If trivia information paid money I'd be a rich man. ;)

    Happy 73rd Birthday to the owner of a lonely heart and one of the most distinctive voices in Rock, Vocalist for Yes and Jon and Vangelis, Jon Anderson who was born in Accrington on this day in 1944.
    I'm sure that the Prog Rockheads on here will post some more, but here is my favourite Yes song...

    And Happy Birthday to Television Guitarist, Richard Lloyd who was born on this day in Pittsburgh 66 years ago today...

    He worked as a duel Lead Guitarist with Tom Verlaine in the band.

    This is from one of the greatest guitar albums of all time, Marquee Moon...
