My father always considers the sax as the instrument of the devil and it has no place in Jazz

He is a traditionalist at heart.....

I thought I would share that.

I will have to get my father to find that tape. if he can i'll mp3 it and send it to you.

I know the battlefield band; but I dont really care for them that much. Me and Scottish folk music dont play nice together. Years of the Alexander Brothers and the Corries at new year, i'd imagine

Think it's called Edge of the World. It was before he met up with Pressburger. Very mdoern in some of the affects he's using.

Nazareth came from Dunfermiline (same as the Skids) Although they may of had one Geordie. Although they didnt really hit the big time till they shifted down south.

and I dont know if I really have part 3 in me, I may have to put the Bay City Rollers on it, and do we really want that?

Or, you may actually know this guy; my father has a tape of a Humphrey Littleton Jazz show that used to go out on Radio 2 on a friday night. It featured some guy from Scotland that moved to Chicago (I think) and he rose to prominence as blues bagpiper; now the strange thing was he only had one arm, and its really difficult to play the pipes with one arm, (I think he filled the bag with bellows between his knees) He used to play with a twelve fingered pianist, (go figure). Anyway; I cant remember his name.

He was bad, but kind of funny

I believe he did
It bombed if I remember

He also used to do Grants Whisky Ads. I think it was grants

Do you remember the fuss? E's are good E's are good!

The video to that song had Jerry Sadowitz in it. He was from Aberdeen with a really thick accent. Me and a friend saw him perform at a comedy club in London and I think we were the only people that were laughing as no one else could understand him

Best joke. The Jehovahs Witness visited someone in Dundee to tell them about the Kingdom of God, spent 2 hours teaching them basic arithmatic!

Jealous that you attened a Michael Poweel lecture. Haven't actually seen 'Peeping Tom' even though I keep meaning to. Seen all the big Powell & Pressburger films though: Canterbury Tale, Red Shoes, Black Narcissus, IKWIG, Blimp, Matter of Life and Death, and Powell's first film about a remote Scottish island. Really want to see Tales of Hoffman as well but can't find it anywhere.

not actual dixieland I suppose, but the UK trad movement

I would have to get my father to make a 50s mixtape
which would be great if you like dixieland!

Bob Mould from Husker Du lives in DC now and he Djs a club night in one of the local clubs.

I also did a 70s mix at the same time, but there has been so many new mixes posted in the last 24 hours it vanished of the recent mixes board.

Cheers. Powell & Pressburger are the most genius filmmakers ever. 90% of the time A Matter of Life and Death would be one my top five films but was in mroe of a Colonel Blimp mood when I made that list.

I love the Move; A guy I used to work with got me into them, he still goes to see Roy Wood on every tour, and apparently they exchange Christmas Cards. As for the Steppenwolf; sorry about that I havent heard it for such a long time I thought it would be a good addition.

woah, blues brothers

especially anybody else that is in the chili peppers. Frusciante pulls my heart strings.

Thank you.

My dad has seen Dr John a couple of times, and he took me once. I was twelve and hated it!

I also turned down the opportunity to see live aid. I went to Stonehenge instead.

I am such a loser

Squanto says, "Bird Fly South Maize Pilgrim," which roughly translates to "Happy Thanksgiving."

That's funny about the outfits.

got it, mate.

No worries. I wasn't trying to scold you or anything. You are like a journalist, in that you are reporting on the facts of a story. And it's a fact that Gary Glitter was a part of the glamrock movement. Thus to be complete he probably should be included. And you did put an asterisk in your description.

It is odd that the man has been on the run for so long and only just this year have sports teams banned playing the song at games.
