@RealPaulPutner Gram-o-phone 🤣 bloody kids! 60 is quite painless really. Happy birthday.

Buying an LP in a chaz shop this week, the young assistant asked, "Do you have a machine that plays these things?" "A turntable. You must remember listening to music before streaming!" "Erm, Dad had an iPod (?) when I was little." I turn 60 tomorrow.😶 youtube.com/watch?v=Y0zsNu…

@PictureSporting Never strayed from the crease.

Elton John on his way out to bat in a benefit game between Middlesex and the Vic Lewis All Stars, Lord's, June 10th 1973. He scored 24 and admitted he had not played since he left school a decade earlier. Vic Lewis was a bandleader and entrepreneur who was an active member of the Middlesex committee for quarter of a century

@BeatlesPraise Read and learn @NickLuty

"The Beatles changed everything. Not just rock music, but life, the universe, everything. You had to be there to truly understand what I’m on about but for anyone that was there, they know. After the Beatles, no one was ever the same again, the young and the old, singers and politicians, sportsmen and actors. Everyone. "They were the most magical thing I’ve ever seen. This complete four-headed monster, each of them as good as the other. You could see them feeding on each other’s energy, and you could see they were having fun. They’d swear at the crowd and when they’d make a mistake they’d crack up laughing, which nobody did at all back then. This was in ’62, before their first single had come out. They would come on stage and you were just awestruck. It was like they were from another planet. "I could never believe the fucking harmonies, they were so good. They had that thing going that you very rarely get, that they just knew what the other one was going to do. They can’t hear a thing they’re singing — there were no monitors in those days, and all that screaming, but the harmonies were perfect. "And everything the Beatles did broke new ground. They were amazing — greatest rock group ever on the earth." --#Lemmy #Motorhead #LemmyKilmister #HardRock #Metal #TheBeatles #Influencers #Inspiration #GOAT

@Tesco why has your Helston store got signs in Welsh?

@prodnose Good choice

I will allow that my nearly 5 decades on TV contain some pretty "uneven" output. However, amid the stinkers, a decidedly good show was this one. youtube.com/watch?v=lAsfuM…

@prodnose Happy birthday Ask.

Michael Aspel is 93 today. Here we are during the 7 years we worked together weekly in the 1980s, on a live remote from Southend Beach. I still have the seagull hat.

@WhisperingBob we don't all want mellow! Play some punk/metal!! #soundsofthe70s

@sdedition Muppets

@RealPaulPutner Sadly missed.

@A_AMilne Your account is one of the few reasons I stay on here. Happy Christmas.

On this #ChristmasEve I would like to thank you all for helping to make this account the friendly, warm and kind community it is, where we can share a positive moment in each day. I hope it makes a small difference to you. Happy Christmas and thank you ❤️🎄

@JLivingston1888 It only got to No.43 apparently.

#popmaster Crashing back down to Earth there with just 15 points 🤣 Jackie Wilson, Fatboy Slim, the year, and Nicki French. I doubt I’ll get any right tomorrow 😂 How did ‘I Ran’ not make the charts for the Seagulls?

@prodnose Not even mentioned on BBC News website. Not edgy enough I guess.

Stanley Baxters death is hard for those seeking to explain his magnitude. Theres no one with who to compare him for younger people. No M&W, Ronnie Barker, Dick Emery, Benny Hill - no equivalent entertainer. We have presenters & stand ups now but nothing on TV like Stanley Baxter

@CrowleyOnAir I saw him at the Town & Country Club in 1990 as part of the house band backing Dion, Dave Edmunds and Graham Parker for a TV special. Effortlessly cool.

Sad news to wake up to. I remember he came into GLR for an interview back in the mid 90s. Maybe with Johnny (Walker) and the building absolutely buzzin’ with excitement. What a talent …what a legacy. RIP Steve 🙏

@RealPaulPutner Also Theme One, written for the opening of Radio 1 and later covered by Van De Graaf Generator and Cozy Powell.

Picked up this last Saturday. Love that artwork! One of the tracks gave me a proper 1970s Proustian rush, (which I rarely get these days). Stumped by what the tune evoked, I soon discovered it's the end titles music to Why Don't You..? youtube.com/watch?v=KG3joR…

@RealPaulPutner Blimey haven't heard that in nearly 50 years.

@_MikeMcCartney_ How sad that Pauline has passed away today.

The original lines were said by John Gorman & Pauline Collins👌

Look what I saw on the tely 2night!

@mickquinn1089 That looks the sleeve of a particularly naff 1970s budget covers LP.
