Tony Ashton was one of the most underrated/underachieving musicians. I love the Paice Ashton Lord record. Gonna stop drinking is the saddest song you can imagine when you look at his struggle with the bottle.loved

Saw them once wow what a gig, saw Mud to and I have to say for the time they performed a lot of us Matelot’s were well impressed.Fantastic Bazzer. How good were Slade ( I saw them twice- fantastic)
Yeah, but how many times did you see Gary Glitter!Saw them once wow what a gig, saw Mud to and I have to say for the time they performed a lot of us Matelot’s were well impressed.
The artist I wanted to see but never got the chance were T Rex, but I did see Showaddy waddy supported by the arrows who performed their track “ I lone rock and roll “ I was only 13 at the time
Once through the door near the ladies in DTM’s but just the one songYeah, but how many times did you see Gary Glitter!
The Autechre remix of St Etienne's "Like a Motorway" is pure blissAdd St Etienne and The Auteurs.
This is not definitive, how could it be.
We all have so many tunes and artists that touched us at a particular time/gig.
Some we revisit, others not .
Loved:
Top 65/66 Radio Favourites:
Positively 4th Street by Bob Dylan.
Turn,Turn,Turn by The Byrds
Northern Soul:
I was born to love you by Herbie Hunter-it’s one of very many early tunes from 67 which I heard at all nighters in Derby,Nottingham & Manchester.
Folk:
The Lady by the late Sandy Denny.
Sandy had a wonderful voice.
Saw her first with Fairport and then Fotheringay at Oxford Town Hall in 1970.
Indie(?)
Born to Die by Lana Del Ray- top album and top track by a unique “ chalk or cheese”artist.
She’s s**t live !
Jesus to a child by the late George Michael- his last Earls Court gigs were epic.
Alison by Slowdive - timeless from 93(?).
Reformed in 2017-live gigs are a wall of sound .
That's funny, I saw Fairport Convention by mistake once in Cornwall. We were in St Ives and passed a theatre that had the doors open, with Fairport Convention playing. They let us come in and watch the last few songs. This was the jolly, beery recent version of the band, not with Sandy Denny sadly!Sandy Denny reminds of the first time I came across by accident Kate Rusby. Mrs YR and I were in St Ives, Cornwall about 25 years ago when there happened to be a mini folk music festival going on with various acts playing in different venues across the town. One of those acts playing in the local town hall was Kate Rusby who I’d never heard of, but clearly an up and coming ‘name’ on the folk scene at the time.
Normally I can only take Folk music in small doses, but I have to say live her voice blew me away, I’ve seen her live several times since, the voice of an angel.
So here’s a Kate Rusby link to a well known Sandy Denny track, ‘Who knows where the time goes?’
Sounded a bit Lana Del Rey to me. Not my kind of thing. And no I didn't sit through the whole 2 hours of it.What does everybody think of the new Taylor Swift album
