    "Marie Provost did not look her best
    The day the cops bust into her lonely nest
    In the cheap hotel up
    On Hollywood West July 29
    She'd been lyin' there
    For two or three weeks
    The neighbors said
    They never heard a squeak
    For hungry eyes that could not speak
    Said even little doggies have got to eat
    She was winner
    That became the doggie's dinner
    She never meant that much to me
    (But now I see) Oh poor Marie"

    With the money from her accident
    She bought herself a mobile home
    So at least she could get some enjoyment
    Out of being alone
    No one could say that she was left up on the shelf
    It's you and me against the World kid she mumbled to herself



    Love a bit of Billy

    43 years ago today (19 March 1976) we lost one of the most underrated guitarists of all time. Paul “Koss” Kossoff died of heart failure on a flight from LA to New York. It was probably brought on by heavy drug use which had led to him being replaced in the band “Free”. He left behind a great legacy, including this song which was written for him and his drug use by his mates, the other members of Free. RIP Koss :emoticon-0106-cryin

    After the massive show of public support for a people's vote today and Farage's pitiful alternative march to leave it has to be this song tonight...

    Today reminded me of this song from legendary Irish folk-rocker Jonathan Kelly. As the song says: “One man may not be right, but can all of these be wrong?”

    Totally random, but for some reason Mrs No7 & I just put this on Alexa and sung along to it :)




    Edit: I say sung along..I mean yelled!

    Edit2: No neither of us were alive in 1958 when he released it ;)

    Bowie, Eno, Leonard Cohen, JulianCope, Thom Yorke and Alex Turner among the impressive list of arists citing Scott Walker as a major influence...a true maverick



    R.I.P. Scott...<rose>

    This has passed my by until now...

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-47751801

    Up and coming Indie duo, Her's from Liverpool were both tragically killed on Wednesday in a road accident along with their Manager and the driver of another vehicle (which was apparently driving the wrong way).

    Can't say that I am familiar with their work but on first listen it sounds like the sort of stuff I like, melodic with jangly guitars.

    The title of this one seems appropriate...



    R.I.P. to all involved...<rose>
