Elvis Drafted !!
Elvis goes in the armyNot even tear stained letters from thousands of fans could stop it, although he did get a sixty day deferment until March 1958 to enable him to film King Creole. Everybody, including Elvis & Colonel Tom, thought that the two years out of the public eye would finish his career. A massive promotional campaign followed along with the phased release of recordings 'in the can' to keep Elvis in the public eye while he wasn't, so to speak.
They obviously didn't do too badly, did they?
Elvis was widely praised for not seeking to avoid the draft or serve domestically, therefore after being a 'Threat To The Nation's Youth' just a year before, he now came to be seen as a role model for all young Americans!
Sgt. Elvis was discharged on March 2, 1960 & continues to have hits, even from beyond the grave, right up to the present day.

I'm Back!

Rumours of my death have been greatly exaggerated, despite my lack of entries here over the last week! Let me give you a rundown as to why there has been little input from me on this forum recently…


 


Monday


Traditionally one of the busiest days of the week – lots of emails to attend to from over the weekend plus regular meeting with the Sales Team in the morning. Lunchtime a regular supplier arrived at the office with a few more of the Beatles ‘Stop Worrying Help Is On The Way’ press kits. If you want one I suggest grabbing them quick as there are just a couple left now!


The afternoon passed in a blur – I was off to see the mighty Zeppelin at O2 that night and couldn’t wait. I’m not going to bore you with how magnificent the concert was because either you’re not interested in the reunion at all or if you are interested then you’ve no doubt read countless reviews for yourself by now. Needless to say I agree with the reviews I read. For a concert that supposedly couldn’t possibly live up to all the hype, it did just that – I will remember it forever!


 


Tuesday


A day of rest. Not in the office at all and enjoyed some R&R at home (wat...

Well, Saturday was fun. With Julian sporting the latest in designer Pith helmets, the intrepid explorer cut & hacked his way through the dense undergrowth (sounds like my garden!) & discovered a lost city of long forgotten CD gems. You can check just out what he found HERE.

During the day we got to listen to some of these including a really impressive CD by Kirsty Hawkshaw & PROMO copies of Remember You're A Womble!

The voyage of discovery continues ....

Hope that you've all sorted out your Christmas purchases. If not there's still time, if you're quick.

Having avoided the dreaded lurgy so far, it's a little un-nerving to be sat so close to Typhoid Mary, who is taking the Christmas idea of giving a bit too far. Honestly, we'd have preferred choccys !

Be safe & be good, one and all. If you've been bad this year, you may get a surprise from Santa that you weren't expecting ...

Fuming!!!
I see from the news that those bloody EU cronies are now trying to infringe our freedom to drive whatever vehicle we want on the grounds of carbon emmisions. So now if you dare drive a guzzler you are viewed as some kind of polution terrorist. We just have to ignore that 2 of the largest countries in the world destroy the environment at a rate that is frankly shocking, and as the powers that be won't tackle that, they hit the motorist. It's not anything to do with moves to increase tax of course!!
 

Question is what's worse Global warming or driving a piece of crap Focus - Hey grab the sunscreen!!

 

A more musical entry tommorow....

Not well.
Severe man-flu has kicked in, which i'm bravely battling against and hopefully infecting everyone else in the office just in time for Christmas...

On a completely unrelated subject (unless you compare Queen to a contagious disease) there is a superb rarity that has just come into stock, namely the legendary blue vinyl Bohemian Rhapsody 7" and not only that, it's number 200 out of the 200 copies pressed!!!

Cold storage indeed
Never has a phrase
been more appropriate.  Tomorrow, Richard and I will be donning fingerless
gloves, woolly hats, scarves & coats to delve into the wondrous depths of
just some of the numerous boxes of stock we squirreled away years ago. A quick,
mental count-up suggests about 12,000 CDs to begin with, then once they're
sorted we'll be able to access the additional 18,000 CDs piled up behind them.
Who knows what we'll find amongst the albums, singles, promos & CD-Rs?  The
last trawl unearthed some interesting titles including; ex-Blow Monkey, Dr.
Robert
singles & albums, a stack of Katie Melua's timeless Crazy CD singles,
plus an album & single by a little known band called Adom, produced by &
featuring Richard Barbieri.  The thrill of discovery remains undiluted, and if
all else fails we'll have lots of spare cases to use!


PS - Mark, you
forgot to mention Coldplay, and the disco classic A.E.I.O.U. by Freez!

So the theory that is 'global warming' is taking a bit of a hammering this week. Even the ferret felt the effects with his water bowl freezing up overnight.
Stay in the warm and browse artists like Ice T, Icicle Works and Icehouse. There's even some Snow Patrol for you to gaze over.

Keep warm and remember, don't eat the yellow snow...

YES !!!

Tal Wilkenfeld

I've already got my copy & had to have it shipped half way across the world at great expense. In fact, it ended up costing me about a tenner more than you will have to pay if you get it HERE.
I bought it because it really IS as good as you hope it will be. I think anyone who has listened to Tal's playing will realise that you are hearing something very special indeed.
This young lady has a very great future ahead of her & she's already frightened some of the existing 'greats'. Comparisons to a young Jaco are easy to make - she manages to play with so much empathy to what's going on around her that it's quite something to see & hear.
If you were lucky enough to see her & Vinnie Colaiuta playing with Jeff Beck, it was a revelation to watch them trading off complex accents & grinning at each other as they did it. It was one of the best & most together rhythm sections I have ever seen and they were having FUN !!!
I thought this CD was good enough to hunt down a copy immediately, Australian only or not, but now you can get one from us for considerably cheaper - how good is that ?
 
I'd like to especially thank the long suffering Mr Simon Wright for not only arranging for us to list this amazing debut CD, but also for resisting the temptation to deliver extreme whacks as I badgered him about it non-stop for the last fortnight :-)

Just had confirmation on my tickests for what will be yet another spectacle of a show. Anyone else in the community going to the MEN?

I'm also looking for a copy of the "Let's Get To It," Tour from Dublin in 1991. I believe this was, and still remains only a VHS Release. Unfortunately the copy I have snapped (the film) and I would appreciate any that may be on offer!!

Led Zep Reform - Yawn!!!

With the whole world going on and on and about the OAP Led Zep collective and a strand of John Lennons hair selling for £24,000, you'd be forgiven for thinking the whole world's gone mad. But then again we live in a country that no longer makes or develops anything, or has any industrial talent left. We simply rely on marketeers to convince us we are in the creative hub of the world.


 

Well me I'm off to sit in a darkened room and listen to Joy Division!! and finish reading Fantasy Island whilst counting down the 70 days till Anton Corbjins Joy Division biopic Control comes out on DVD. The thought of sitting in a cinema with other people watching the soundtrack to one of the most important bands ever seemed very wrong. That and morons with mobile phones in cinemas and bloody nachos snacks - very very wrong!!
