This is another good 60s number. Blackberry Way. Not sure about the dodgy looking bloke with the blue sequin top on though...
Never mind those fairies, this is the real thing.:lol: :lol: :lol:Quote:

Come on, when it gets to the chorus bit I want you in the front of the mirror doing the legs up business, good fun, especially after 5 beers!
Well it's not quite as funny as the military two-step but I was never one for prancing about like a fairy.Quote:

Oh dear lord!! That's like a dodgy mixture of Ken Dodd and Little and Large but more camp. It looks like they are playing at Butlins as well.Quote:

“You know, I used to play his records all the time when I first started in the music game: him and Johnny Ray. I don’t know which one I sold the most of.
That was the difference in those days, the kids had class,” said Morry nostalgically.

I have to disagree. There should never have been a time and place for Frankie Laine or Johnnie Ray. :D
As for Psycho a go-go, Admin's very timely aphorism says it all.
Aphorism #30 Have naught to do with Occupations of Ill-repute, still less with fads that bring more notoriety than repute. There are many fanciful sects, and from all the prudent man has to flee. There are bizarre tastes that always take to their heart all that wise men repudiate; they live in love with singularity. This may make them well known indeed, but more as objects of ridicule than of repute. A cautious man does not even make profession of his wisdom, still less of those matters that make their followers ridiculous. These need not be specified, for common contempt has sufficiently singled them out.:lol:

Another Freddie and The Dreamers 'number' from earlier in their career playing at a prestigious labour club, location unknown. Just for Emil. :lol:
Oh and believe it or not Freddie was married three times!
I'm getting a message that the video is currently unavailable, but I don't think I've missed much.Quote:

Damn, but no you didn't miss much, it's working for me so I'm not sure why, never mind. Well I don't know much about him really just going of wiki. Trivia - he turns up as a DJ in one episode of Heartbeat as an actor not himself and plays one of his own tracks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-JdWlKYmUs 12 minutes in. That's enough of Freddy, he's now officially banned from Lit Net, you'll be pleased to hear.Quote:

Apart from paintings by court artists and others he’d seen in history books, he had little knowledge of art, and even less of music which had often affronted him because he didn’t see that Beethoven was any more valid than Bo Diddley, except that one was for highbrows and the other for normal people.'
That was purely coincidence, but now I do recall the reference to BD in your book.Quote:

Neely, you can't go wrong with the Kinks.
Here's one I borrowed for my Bigfoot thread, another great sing along after a couple bottles of Leffe...

Yes the Kinks are pretty good.
I've just gone passed the part in Heartbeat where Nick leaves.:bawling:. It's the end of an era. It seems appropriate to play the following:

I don't remember the picture you mention although I freely admit to posting a number of fatties in the past
but not in admiration, more as a warning against over indulgence in comestibles.
