you procure them ?

 

...... I wouldn't buy Cliff Richard or Bob Dylan records, CD's or albums tbh

 

Just a tip.......Elton's Johns 3 disk greatest hits set is mainly shit and doesn't cover his early stuff.

 

Try again and procure Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player and Madman Across The Water, or download them if you want to spend your allowance on something else .....

 

Allowance?

 

Tell you what, I've already given Elton a shot, get hold of Blood on the Tracks and give me a review, then I'll dig deeper into the John back catalogue and give you an honest assessment.

Tell you what would be a big seller if we ever get to the FA Cup Final again. Leazes Mag and Freddy Shepherd duetting on Don't Go Breaking My Heart.

 

Leazes: Don't go breaking my heart

Freddy: I couldn't if I tried

Leazes: Honey if I get restless

Freddy: Baby you're not that kind

 

Leazes: Don't go breaking my heart

Freddy: You take the weight off me

Leazes: Honey when you knock on my door

Freddy: I gave you my key

 

Both: Oooo-oooo Nobody knows it

Freddy: When I was down

Leazes: I was your clown

Both: Oooo-oooo Nobody knows it

Freddy: Right from the start

Leazes: I gave you my heart

Both: I gave you my heart

 

Leazes: So don't go breaking my heart

Freddy: I won't go breaking your heart

Both: Don't go breaking my heart

 

Leazes: And nobody told us

Freddy: `Cause nobody showed us

Leazes: And now it's up to us babe

Both: I think we can make it

 

Freddy: So don't misunderstand me

Leazes: You put the light in my life

Freddy: You put the sparks to the flame

Leazes: I've got your heart in my sights

 

Both: Oooo-oooo Nobody knows it

Freddy: When I was down

Leazes: I was your clown

Both: Oooo-oooo Nobody knows it

Freddy: Right from the start

Leazes: I gave you my heart

Both: I gave you my heart

Back in the eighties I used to knock around with some girl that worked for polydor records. We used to take music very seriously, favourites at the time your Jesus and Mary Chain, Smiths Ramones Orange Juice and the like.

This one night she rings me up and tells me to meet her outside the Brixton Acadamy, doesnt give any more details.

I turn up at the appointed time and there are hundreds of teenage girls queuing round the theatre. All in a rare state of excitement. I meet up and she gives me a pass and we walk past the throng and in. Once we are in she lets me know what is going on.

 

At this point in pop history Wham were as big as it gets. The next day they were playing the first of three nights of "The Final Day" at Wembley, their last gigs before splitting up amidst much hysteria and media frenzy. Obviously of no interest to me though, Or so I thought. Tonight Wham were playing a secret warm up gig, for the first 800 members of the fan club and a few record company and press types, and me.

 

I was fairly unimpressed until the screaming started, Ive never heard anything like it. And this is before the lights even went down By the time they actually started the place was in fucking uproar, knickers and bras were flying, you could genuinley smell the excitement and the show they put on was incredible. They worked that room like nothing I have ever seen.

 

And the bar was empty

 

and it was free.

 

So not the Clash, not James Brown, not the New York Dolls or the Ramones or Oasis,or the Smiths the best concert I ever saw was Wham, and it was by a fucking mile

Somebody posted on either here or the original site about going to a Wham gig at Brixton and being fucked sensless by the girl they'd went with after she'd been worked into a sexual frenzy by the gig.

 

Was that you or is this just a coincidence?

You are not wrong, the atmosphere could have turned a nun rabid. When i said you could smell the excitement I wasnt exagerating

you procure them ?

 

...... I wouldn't buy Cliff Richard or Bob Dylan records, CD's or albums tbh

 

Just a tip.......Elton's Johns 3 disk greatest hits set is mainly shit and doesn't cover his early stuff.

 

Try again and procure Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player and Madman Across The Water, or download them if you want to spend your allowance on something else .....

 

Allowance?

 

Tell you what, I've already given Elton a shot, get hold of Blood on the Tracks and give me a review, then I'll dig deeper into the John back catalogue and give you an honest assessment.

 

I'm not arsed if you like Elton John or not, I don't myself since the late 70's .... but to say he is what you said earlier - I can't be arsed to look either - is as wrong as saying that Bob Dylan is an opera singer.

 

PS...I thought people who procure things had allowances

I said he's a lounge act. By which I mean he does the occassional show at a cricket club in front of fat businessmen and their trophy wives who've paid £80+ for a ticket and brought along a whicker hamper and a golf umbrella for when it rains. Which he does. I don't remember Dylan ever attempting opera, but if he did it would be brilliant.

....and about 250 gigs a year on the road.

 

Well, I've never been to one. :)

 

Just noticed that previous post makes me look like an Elton John fan. I would like to state for the record that he is a big fat hom with very little if any talent.

Clever boy. Do you always talk like that. Fat businessmen with trophy wives tend to talk like that.

 

He might be a "lounge act" NOW, but my point is that he wasn't in his early days...such a clever boy like you should learn to read properly.

 

Not that I'm arsed, as I said.

 

Getting back to the point, I think Bob Dylan couldn't sing for toffee and the 2 tracks I've mentioned were especially brilliant by others and especially shit by Dylan.

 

Now - where were we.

If you're asking do I always use words from the dictionary, then yes, I'm afraid I do.

Saw The Strokes up in Edinburgh just after "Is This It" was released.

 

Fantastic gig, fantastic night.

 

Aye I saw them in San Francisco. Good gig. Although the singer appeared to be off his face on something or other, the bad scamp.
