Great Lost Tracks - An Everyday Series

God!!! :o

This guy's collection of vids is tackier than mine! :o

(Or Crown's obviously )



Ahhh - Grandstand... Frank Boff (Arf! ) Isn't it...? Wasn't it...?

Some gold watches in there tho ...

(Other peoples' record collections - a fukkin magnet for sadsacks )

Cracking mid-season 'cocks

(Fill in your own punchline here Sev )

I’d like to thank you for reading me and my little show here tonight.

If you’ve enjoyed it then it’s all been worthwhile.

So until we meet again...

Goodnight, and I love you all!




Barry-esque! :o


(Crap vid tho )

Not near enuff Smythes in this series.

Speshly for a lyrical, etymological obsessive


The first...

...when they were good





"A double bed-and a stalwart lover for sure - these are the riches of the poor"

"He killed a policeman when he was thirteen - and somehow that really impressed me..."

"...and if you ever need self-validation, just meet me in the alley by the railway station..."

The second...

When they were fucking untouchable.

Gotta be up there as one of the greatest opening couplets in a pop-song EVER!







"I decree today that life is simply taking and not giving - England is mine. And it owes me a living"

"Does the body rule the mind or does the mind rule the body... I dunno..."


And the greatest of em all...

"And if you must go to work tomorrow... well if I were you I wouldn't bother - for there are brighter sides to life and I should know, because I've seen them - but not very often"

Slap me on the patio!!!

It's almost as if the Arctic Monkeys might never have existed without him!!!

Incidentally...


If you ever wondered what Mozzer's dad mighta looked like...




(Look out for Richard Wattis (Eric Sykes & Hattie J's snooty neighbour Mr Brown fact fans) at 0.14)

Also - on a related topic...

...if you would indulge me...

Richard Hawley.

WTF is that all about

I mean - I'm sure his bonafides are sound and all but how comes he is everybodys pal at the moment?

If you look up the word "ubiquitous" (sp?) in the dictionary there's a wee picture of him next to the definition.

Billy F was the most convincing of the early UK rockers without doubt (Check out his perf of "Aint Nothin Shakin..." on RSG) but he was also capable of affectingly average wee pieces of fluff like this.

RH's entire canon seems naught to me but a foul and pestilent congregation of fluff.

He's a bad photocopy of one of these pre-Beatles crooners that used to get signed up by Larry Parnes.

Tyrone Thrust or somesuch.

Decent enough songs - but you could see the way they were gonna work from miles back

Three-chord trick - no surprises

Why is he clogging up the airwaves and earning squillions when the laws of chance surely dictate that he should be living in a squalid flat in a seedy suburb of Sheffield and eking out a living in a Roy Orbison tribute band every alternate Thursday night?

Unthreatening mainstream retro-hip colour supplement pish






I think that's what I'm trying to say.



Who knows

Bueller???

Sun'll be up soon :o









Should prolly go to bed.














Unless this doesn't make pg 15

Ahhh fukk it

Dear immo, I must hand in my music police badge, have just grabbed the latest Coldpiss single. I'm so ashamed, please forgive me.

The rant I had a while back about oldies radio programmes still holds BTW

Hopelessly shckled to the same old songs every fukkin time

I mean - do we really need to hear "Baby Love" again???

Ahhh - it's all fukkin soup anyhows Crownybhoy

Your musical eclecticism is part of your charm

Now if all you ever bought/listened to was Coldpiss, Keane, Snow Patrol we'd be talkin about an entirely different cup of meat.

Betcha like this next f'rinstance :rendeer:

try this on for size, i never knew it was leadbelly who wrote this, thought it was kurt cobain or mark lannegan.

Quality stuff Der Sevmeister!

Knew it was Leadbelly - read it in some article or other.

Spooky stuff :o

Bit too "country" for my taste in blues giants THO...

I always liked the Chicagoey urban stuff better

Like this big scary lookin muthafukkah!

Mind...

...Canvey Island has a lot to commend it an'all ;)

fuck me, "the geordie scene" i,d forgotten all about that.

another 2 great choices my scholarly friend. :face:

Ah the Feelgoods, happy memories!

Saw them at the Apollo just after Down by the Jetty's release, Dec 1974. They were supporting Hawkwind (same record label, nothing else in common!) We young bucks rocked to the Feelgoods among all those dope smoking metal Hawkwind types then escaped only after a long lustful adolescent look at the statuesque Stacia.......anyone remember her? Fuck I sound like Immo here

Wilko Johnston is still rockin', released a great live album a few years back. http://www.wilkojohnson.org.uk/sites/

i saw hawkwind around that time mo, wonder if it was the same gig, the fact you remember the doc shows you were well ahead of your time.either that, i was just in to shitey bands.

Yeh we were only 14 Sev. But one of my pals had an older musician brother and he was probably the reason we were so hip so young

That year I remember seeing Bowie, Lou Reed, Rory Gallagher, the SAHB and the Feelgoods all at the Apollo. Roxanne was in the charts when the Feelgoods were touring. They and Hawkwind were both on United Artists and it was some kind of label sponsored tour I think.

Wilko Johnston live was something else. He does a lot of gigging round London /SE clubs these days and I'm tempted to go down there sometime.

Fuck, that's Jimmy's playlist. Can we abuse the politest man in the highlands now? (No offence James)

Nah, blind spot for anything even slightly Soul or Blues. Sorry mate.

The red red sky.....

Mita is a fucking idiot, but he sent me the best song Slade made, so I thank you young man, top stuff, you're a gent.

Absolutely fukkin ridiculous...

Number of times you've seen this...

and yet - still...



The fire...

The skill...

The chutzpah!

The energy... the faith... the devotion ! (Arf! )

A veritable profile in courage!!!

(That Lulu'd fukkin get it an'all - even now!!! :o :o )

Beautifully, primally and very fallibly live

(Check the monged-up guitar break right at the end of the first verse! :o )

A robust sentiment and decent rule of thumb when coping with the inevitable slings & arrows inherent in an open, trusting, arse-baringly honest strategy for life on the big blue marble...

A ridiculous outfit from bignose and a preposterously pomptastic performance from the most Plumstead, prudish, mainstream trout-farmer in the biznizz...


Alll this and a truly beautiful idiot-child on drums...


What's not to like?





Meet the new boss... same as the old boss...

Imagine me and you... I do... I dream about you every night...
