A stop- press issue if you like this week. I'll turn you over to the tunes and the blacker-than-black Auntie Beeb winner...
Following from last time out's Macca fest I turn to the slightly less likable Beatle! If you combine the Lennon parts of Double Fantasy & Milk and Honey you end up with a pretty decent LP without all that Yoko pap. Interesting to think what else Lennon would have done had he lived (or even been recording in the late '70's...maybe he saw into the future and got outta the game before punk came along???) and ditched Yoko (which he surely would have). Anyway, one of my faves. Next week Jim Keltner solo material!
I was introduced to this by the smokin' Carmen Ghia & the Hot Rods but heard the orig version today for the first time. Random Den fact number 1: Etta James first name was Jamesetta! Random Den fact number 2: that's Little Richard and his backing band playing along; Stone-cold fact number 3: It was MADness to cast Beyonce as Jamesetta...
And finally a clip I've waited 16 years to see again (along with many others by the looks of the comments): Huggy Bear on the Word. The high-water mark of their career in my pov. Great garb abound to boot as well, Denettes!
Series one was dark and series two is turning demented. My idea box must be rotting as I cannot remember a thing about this series of 'Nighty night'. You wont see these in the series- here are some outtakes from Linda, Cathy, Jill, Don and the man with the best name ever: Glen Bulb.
