new All American Rejects album is uber catchy

He's always come across as a bit of a prat!

Tight as a camels whats-it in a sandstorm especially after he split with The Beatles and formed Wings.

Theres a story in Denny Laines biog that he tells where McCartney had bought the farm on The Mull of Kintyre and wanted to go back to a carefree world with none of the trappings of rich-ness, live a simple life,e at vegetables all that jazz.

He convinced his new band that they'd love it on the farm, get to know nature again, live a simple life - so they followed him up there.

When they arrived they found a derelict farm that hadn't been lived in for nearly a hundred years, no drains, water from a nearby burn, no gas or electric, nothing on the floors but dirt and bare stone walls, McCartney and wife had the two empty roomed house, the rest of the band were given a barn with one wall missing and told to doss down there.

They soon tired of nagging McCartney for warm water and a lend of a generator for a bit of power, so they took some chalk and drew a picture of a television set on a wall and sat around all night staring at it, every now and again someone would get up to turn it over and draw another picture on it - the next day he drove them to the nearest town and booked them into a hotel.

I was thinking of getting that i'm liking "hope it gives you hell" at the moment.

Caterina Valente is one of the best performers I’ve listened to in a long time - such pure talent. Anyone else here a fan of hers?

Big One

Nice one. I’m going to get my mate to get me some of her songs. I’ll be ecstasy listening to them on my ipod!

Or hopefully my gran will have a CD of her’s.

I bet Edward Lear would have laughed

McClazza I'm after the best prog rock available.

Push me in the right direction ye?

At the minute I have The Nice...

Had three albums of The Nice, probably still have them in the garage.

Of course the classic prog rock band has to be the one that followed int he footsteps of The Nice - Emerson Lake & Palmer, just stay away from their later stuff, try "Pictures at an Exhibition"

You might also want to look at Yes and the early years of Pink Floyd.

Those three bands were the limit of my interest but I understand that our Webmeister is a big fan of early 70's prog rock with particular interest in Hawkwind.

For Damo & and any The Who Fans out there

Here's me and The Who playing together

Cheers

What Bands are you planning on playing with in the future?
