2 bean cans and a length of string with Supercar written in felt-tip? Or do you still have the genuine plastic? I see that there is a new episode of Stingray showing on Sunday. I never warmed to Stingray though. Supercar was the best: well, along with Fireball XL5 and Thunderbird 2.

straightening your last?

You've come to the right place.

I'll not think on the meaning of that sentence for too long. If there's one thing I can't take, it's James Last. Is it ok to mention him in this thread? (James Last, 'The Gentleman of Music'. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=UX89abqpQ4Y)

Yes – excellent, 'the big twin'! Although I see there's another video where he goes triple barrel. Now, just to go off topic for a mo' For some reason, the appearance of Kirk made me think of the Music From Free Creek, must be something to do with flute playing. Joe Farrell and Chris Wood did a flute version of Lay Lady Lay. I can't find anything on YouTube. Maybe I should upload it someday when I have time. I see that Amazon has one used copy for $100 – and I think that's the 2003 re-release, not the original. Does anyone else remember it / have it? It was quite a session(s)! Hqve a read of the Moody Klingman interview here: http://www.moogymusic.com/CDs/freecreek.html And here's a bit of blurb ~ Joe Viglione, All Music Guide >> The 2003 re-release of Music from Free Creek: The Long Lost Super Session Album comes with a six-page booklet explaining who plays what on a simply amazing collection of marquee talent recorded at the Record Plant in June through August of 1969. This edition features a 2001 interview with Moogy Klingman conducted by I.C. Timerow for the fanzine Heavy Metal Mayhem, which goes into great detail on how this event came together. While record labels were looking for something of this enormity -- keep the alleged "jam" between Mick Jagger and Bob Dylan that never happened in mind -- and a prank of an album called The Masked Marauders slipped into record stores, the public had little clue that something on that scale actually did exist. Linda Ronstadt backed up by musicians from the Eagles and Three Dog Night might not have shook the Earth, as Ronstadt and Three Dog Night only had one hit each at the time, but in retrospect they add diversity to an album featuring Dr. John, Chris Wood, Delaney Bramlett, Todd Rundgren, Mitch Mitchell, and so many others. It also has Buzzy Linhart and Buzzy Feiten, the two "Buzzys" that get confused with each other in musical discussions of the day. Broken up into six divisions -- the Eric Clapton session, the Jeff Beck session, the Keith Emerson session, the Harvey Mandel session, Moogy Klingman's odds & sods, and the Linda Ronstadt session, Music from Free Creek is easy to digest. Mitchell jamming on an instrumental "Hey Jude" with Feiten, Elliott Randall, and 19-year-old Moogy Klingman is a delight. Material by Mike Gayle of the Glitterhouse, Bernie Leadon of the Eagles, Aaron Neville, Allen Toussaint, Dylan, co-producer Earl Dowd, Harvey Mandel, and others helps the effort live up to its billing. Music from Free Creek is a super session album where the musicians are playing for the fun of it, and that comes across. The material doesn't get bogged down in "names"; it just flows. As stated, the information on the disc in the liners is quite thorough, and more might be found on arranger Klingman's website, www.moogymusic.com.

Ryuichi Sakamoto – it looks a bit like a (winter) bike ride too

Yes, just joking. In the past year I have, at different times, both downloaded some Focus from iTunes and dug out the old vinyl. But at first (when nobody was responding in the thread, I did think that GS was looking for conservative, old-time, rock and roll (is that a contradiction in terms?). So even though my Starter list was quite conservative, I thought that even it might have been outside the bounds! I see now that people are thinking quite widely. So here we go. The Intermediate selection: 1) Current 93, Black Ships Ate The Sky http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=F9q1FomLSkw 2) John Zorn, Lonely Woman http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=vZ6PnFRQnN4 interlude) Frank Zappa interview http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=xamf2O9-39s 3) Chip Taylor, Wild Thing http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=uftwyJP6Ees 4) Prince Buster, A Change Is Gonna Come http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=C6362e0lBv0 5) Bill Frisell etc, Sugar Baby http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=L7qsHSvHlP0 Bonus track: The Turtles, Buzz Saw http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=bZm96qtzePY

Yes indeed. There is enough interest and the accommodation booking is pencilled in at the moment. I was looking at the date countdown the other day and it's nearly down to 150 days. When I put the page up it was 200 days. A quarter of the time has passed and it really doesn't seem like long ago!

Focus in top 5 Rock n Roll – and I wondered if my list was eligible?! Revisit: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?...st&p=140819 http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=TWs3wmYwxEA PS I bought a Stylophone a few days ago (for a Christmas present) Ah, 1967 http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=JIhQKJ40UHM

Isn't she getting a Griso before then?

Ha, you can't fool us! You just don't remember – because you were there! Peace

Ever since JR put up Bo Diddley, the name Bod Iddley has been stuck in my head. What should I do?

...taking it down to the 'dyke shop', you mean?

The 1200 with new 4V engine will have higher power than V11. Yesterday I read someone who wrote that they get 250 miles to a tank on the 1200 Sport 4V! That is twice the range of my Griso and V.11 and would be welcome. The 1200 must be better built and certainly looks more comfortable and well suited to be a fast tourer.

Nick Cave DOES have to be there, indeed. Looking at the link – I've never seen those N.C. videos before. Great. As I sat Sadly By Her Side is on at the mo. I could be here for some time... Erm, different subject, but I hope that you're watching those old road race vids in the nearby thread?

Must Watch. Classic. Atmospheric. (Some of) you will love these. Old footage of Joey Dunlop circa 1977, just prior to embarking on TT dominance. Part 2 shows the famous fishing boat transport used to get bikes and tools to IOM. Just watch the first 40 seconds and see if you can resist the rest.

Methinks ye talke crazeee talke my goode fellowe. Dig the hip lyrics I've been labouring on. Rockin innit? I'm gonna write a little letter, gonna mail it to my forum Admin. Yeah an' it's a jumpin' little audio file I want my forum jockey to play. Roll Over Bendy, I gotta hear V-twin Termignoni today. You know, the relay temperature's risin' The Moto Guzzi's blowin' a fuse. My crank's beatin' rhythm and my airbox keeps a-singin' the blues. Roll Over Bendy and tell Admin Jaap the news. I got the rockin' tappets, I need a shot of air cooled rhythm and blues. I caught the rollin' shafties sittin' down at a 1200 Sport review. Roll Over Bendy the valves 'r' rockin' in two by two. Well, if you feelin' like it go get your V.11, then reel and rock it. Roll it over and move on up just a trifle further and reel and rock with it, roll it over, Roll Over Bendy, dig these big torque rhythm and blues. Well, early in the mornin' I'm a-givin' you a warnin' don't you step on my Tenni suede shoes. Hey diddle diddle, I am setting the gaps to universal spec, call it a fiddle, ain't got nothin' to lose. Roll Over Bendy and tell Admin Jaap the news. You know she wiggles like a glow worm, dance like a spinnin' top. She got a crazy Marzocchi, Ya oughta see it reel and rock. Long as she got high octane, the revin' music wont never stop. Roll Over Bendy, Roll Over Bendy, Roll Over Bendy, Roll Over Bendy, Roll Over Bendy, dig these big twin rhythm and blues. EDIT I thought I better add that this is, of course, Chuck Berry's Roll over Beethoven – in case you young-uns don't know it.

That's a lot of timber! How are those tracks constructed?

Road racing from Omobono Tenni to Cameron Donald, from TT to Dundrod. A must see: this should be a sticky! http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=ATV8c_ZkK3E

A new road race has been confirmed. It will be at Armoy, home town of Joey and Robert Dunlop [and Jim Dunlop – the only surviving member of the Armoy Armada from the 70s.** ] Here is a drive around the circuit: http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=4NP98KvFqPo 2009: Armoy races on 8 August and the restored Mid Antrim 150 a week earlier. The Cookstown 100 is scheduled for 25 April with the Tandragee 100 taking place a week later. Following the North West 200 on 16 May, the next road racing event in Ireland will be the Bush Road Races on 20 June. After the Mid Antrim and Armoy events on 1 and 8 August, the Dundrod 150 will take place on 12/13 August in the same week as the Ulster Grand Prix (15 August). ** http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?...st&p=144072
