All this Welsh speaking Star Wars stuff, I'm not a huge fan but saying Jar Jar Binks in a Welsh accent is pleasing me greatly.

Magnificent

It's like a game of catchphrase you can never win. "What's Cliff saying here?" Buzz - Taking the biscuit Close but not right Buzz - I can't stand up for falling down No. Try again. Wrong artist. Buzz - When I'm 84 Sorry you're wrong Forever....

Every time

Here's the full Nicko McBrain episode which hasn't aged well. The drumming starts about 10 minutes in. The end song is, erm, challenging... youtu.be/F_T4668KBSg?...

I bang on about Sweep, the internet has given him fresh legs as it were. He's unconditionally funny. Yet kudos should be given to Matthew Corbett who could be quite subversive. There is an episode of Sooty & Co that features Iron Maiden's drummer. This is brilliant.

Some people teach you right from wrong. Jimmy Cricket taught me left from right. Makes you think 🤔

I did a thing on the 50th anniversary of Roxy Music's debut. My usual mix of hyperbole and wonder yet ultimately focussed on the performances of the songs I was able to uncover. You can keep your Starman, Roxy Music doing this on Top Of The Pops must have blown millions of tiny minds.

I was two years old when this was released yet it feels like it existed for most of my childhood and I know it word for word. The power of radio when that's all there was I guess. One of those pop record time machines. Wonderful.

Thanks to Jim for his great detective work and rediscovering this. A late 80s episode of The Roxy. Kid Jensen in full flow with Shirley Bassey and Yello stealing the show. Just incredible. Thank you @jimmccormick.bsky.social

Enjoying Skys coverage of the cricket. Finch and Butcher magnificent. Cork less so. Nice guest appearance from Ponty Pandy's fire fighter Elvis Cridlington too

39 years ago today Shirley Bassey's version of The Rhythm Divine was released. Billy once said working with her made everything valid in the eyes of his mum and his aunties. Here's Shirley giving it everything in a fabulous performance with full orchestra. youtu.be/PApTHjhahvg?...

Written by Billy Mackenzie it's no surprise this is one of my all time favourite records. Billy once said “Working with her made everything valid with my mum and aunties." 😍 Billy's version is magnificent but Shirley is another level on this. Oh my goodness what a fucking record.

I haven't listened to Del Amitri for a while yet the answer to this question genuinely could lie in Waking Hours, Change Everything and Twisted. Nobody but die hard Dels fans will agree with me but there is just song after song after song of genius on every one of them....

As I wait impatiently for Nob Stanley's book on The Shadows (includes some Marvin Welch and Farrar) this song came up on an MWF compilation I was listening to. Written by Bruce Welch who was engaged to Olivia Newton John. Bruce released this as a single. I need more info.. youtu.be/Z6-INkIW0dw?...
