No sorry. Mistaken identity. I was too busy pummelling Patrick Swayze for the whole Katie Holmes thing

Where is Tom Cruise? There somewhere. Hang on a sec'.

wonder if he tap-danced for them. Just like a 19thCentury Michael Flatulently.

Charles Kennedy is the leader of the Liberal Democrats, the middle ground, the third way. I don't doubt that he's a nice fella, insofar as a politician can possibly be. And who's Conan O'Brian?

What is your Faith???? (or lack thereof)
tonym replied to Rooster_Ties's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Now it's got me wondering/worrying which 18% of me is Sevent Day Adventist? If it's as much as a little toenail, I'll still be pissed, but that wouldn't even count for more than about 0. 5% anyway -

'Imagination' indeed. Ditto, one of my favourite sets and the first disc in particular as a date is some of my favourite Getz, from any period. 'Yesterdays' is a marvellous piece of tenor playing as is 'You Go To My Head'. I also love the studio quintet date where they play 'Autumn Leaves'. A real desert island set for me. I cannot praise it enough without getting all slushy.

What Are Your Earliest Memories of Music?
tonym replied to Brownian Motion's topic in Miscellaneous Music
As a very young kid, we didn't have a stereo in the house, but I remember at maybe 3 or 4 watching 'Top Of The Pops' with my older sister. I'm sure this was many British kid's intro to music of any description. Catholic masses featured music of a very different genre, as did school assemblies which seemed to go on forever, with much 'happy clapping' My earliest visual memories are of the above TV prog with the likes of Rod Stewart and fortunately, Pan's People who were a dance troup choreographed to the bands who couldn't appear on the show. They featured some very attractive chicks who would go on to play a large part in my formative years.... At my grandparents house they had a tape recorder (the single speaker variety) and one tape; some Jim Reeves compilation. That was it. At about 6, we moved house and my uncles would visit more often, one played blues guitar and he gave me a large poster illustrating loads of 'leccy guitars like Strats and Flying V's, stufff like that. I had that on my wall for years. My sister around this time was heavily into the 'Bay City Rollers' so my poster lost the fight for wall space with all her posters and tartan artefacts. It's amzing how one can develop a taste for something which played so little a part during those imprtant years. I remember asking Michael Nyman at a Q&A session what/who he was exposed to as a youngster. He said his parents owned one 78. The 'Happy Wanderer'. Made me think there was hope. -
Another reason to hate cell phones....
tonym replied to BERIGAN's topic in Miscellaneous - Non-Political
Aahhh yes, 'Jackass' generation, now not so content with sitting at home goofing over the show, they now have the technology/money at their disposal to ensure we're all participants in their fucked up take on 'fun'. Fortunately, Darwinian theory plays it's part in weeding out some of the morons; anyone seen that video clip in which some youths were hanging out of a car taking random, high-speed slaps at cyclists and pedestrians. One over zealous lad leaned a bit too far out of the car. Door opens letting him strike an oncoming car's front bumper with his head. I'm sure it would have been certain death. But I'd be happy with severe incapacity/ invalidity for him. -
Sunday: When in York, I found the 'Seven Steps' individual discs which would complete the period (ie. the ones I didn't buy during the week). And , they were even cheaper :duh:. So, Seven Steps and Miles In Tokyo which at first listen sounds like a hell of an album. Not sure how far down this route they could've gone as opposed to the Wayne route. Rivers seems to change the way the whole band sound. Also, True Blue and Night Dreamer.

A friend of mine gave me an MP3 CD of about 5 or 6 Stones albums; classics like Let It Bleed etc. Still haven't listened to them. Bits and pieces but not a full disc. Trout Mask Replica. Unfortunately, I did sit through 'Pet Sounds' on the many recommendations of it's 'classic' status
