i was ripped to the tits mate, but i checked the 3700 hours of taped conversation from friday night on my watergate Sony TC-800B machine . Brightons athletic stadium was discussed at 11.27pm just before the bay of pigs issue at 11.11pm.
Rodney Trotter ; "I don't think it's right! Them people laughing in there! I ain't laughing... I ain't today, I ain't laughing tomorrow, I don't wanna laugh for the rest of my life."
Uncle Albert ; "Well, as long as you're happy, son"
One of my favourite auto bio's was Simon napeir bells 'you dont have to say you love me' There's a quote from Townsend re Moons drumming style on his' pictures of lily drum kit'
it was along the lines of moon eshewing the traditional druming style of left to right, right to left.. Moon played 'forwards and back' 'forwards and back' hed never seen anything like it before or since.
i think Moon is at his best on this. He sounds like an old testemant god full of smote .
Event horizon acting from Robinson crusoe 1954 oscar winner irishman Dan O'Herlihy, he was pushing 70 by this time but percolates a slow motion riot actng masterclass in this segment of 'Halloween 3', 1982, playing the role of Conal Cochran, owner of 'Silver Shamrock'
Conal Cochran: Enjoy the horror-thon, Doctor, and don't forget to watch the big giveaway afterwards. Doctor Daniel Challis: Why, Cochran, why?
Conal Cochran: Do I need a reason? Mr. Kupfer was right, you know. I do love a good joke, and this is the best ever: a joke on the children. But there's a better reason... You don't really know much about Halloween. You thought no further than the strange custom of having your children wear masks and go out begging for candy.
... It was the start of the year in our old Celtic lands, and we'd be waiting in our houses of wattles and clay. The barriers would be down, you see, between the real and the unreal, and the dead might be looking in to sit by our fires of turf...
Halloween... the festival of Samhain!! The last great one took place three thousand years ago, when the hills ran red with the blood of animals and children. Doctor Daniel Challis: Sacrifices!
Conal Cochran: It was part of our world... our craft. Doctor Daniel Challis: Witchcraft!
Conal Cochran: To us, it was a way of controlling our environment. It's not so different now... it's time again. In the end, we don't decide these things, you know; the planets do. They're in alignment, and it's time again. .
The world's going to change tonight, Doctor, I'm glad you'll be able to watch it...
I've always thought Scott parker has the look of a philandering cad. A 19th century long firm con artist and Love Rat who would turn up unannounced at Downton Abbey and inform the Lord he's a nephew he hasn't seen since 1876, because he's been away "in the colonies".
Scott would spend a few days ingratiating himself with the family and making coarse, out of wedlock sexual overtures towards the Lords plain daughter with the illegitimate child, before the countess notices he doesn't know what order to use his cutlery in at the dinner table and smells a rat.
The butler would be enlisted to discretely get to the bottom of the whole thing and would end with Scottt being confronted with a bag full of stolen silver candlesticks, pocket watches and the nephew's death certificate.
Vindicated, The countess would take the train to London to see him publicly hung because "one must be able to look death in the eye."
Thus In my mind, this sordid affair must point to a thumping 4-1 defeat and Scott slipping the hangmans noose once more , only to raid Mrs Jones from 'Rising Damp's' post office account of her life savings, £657.24p.
i agree mate. nothing more embarrasing that a middle age missed his boat raver like myself but christ, young people that cross my desk seem more miserable than a khmer rouge dance troop on a bonor regis butlins tour.
i sound like jimmys dad in 'quadrophenia' watching the who on 'top of the pops'..
I've read his bio a few times mate.. it's up there with Boy Georges 'take it like a man' and Marc Almonds 'Tainted Life'..
No drugs, booze or 48 hour chem sex parties like George and Marc... outside of the music it was just his struggles with Mania, mental health and sex addiction .
One thing that stands out for me was his memorys on being on the saturday night cannon and Ball show' dressed up like a camp spanish Matador being the butt of Bobby balls jokes...
Paraphrasing here but his record company were pushing 'goody two shoes' and told him he had to go through with it as Cannon and ball had 14 million viewers of a saturday night.
Adam said he felt like he had been pimped out for a cheap gag.. it wrecked him being a stooge for 14 million people supping double diamond and skol white top.
He didnt drink ..do drugs.
He was /is a fragile soul.
Some people, kensal , should have 'Handle with care' stamped on them when they are born. Probaly some of us on here as well.
