What about the constellations in comparison to chuck cockerham in terms of quality and rarity imo

Surprised it never got the attention it deserved , like some new releases have .

Jesse James - love affair

Hmm maybe you’re right there , bit of a bad one to pick though.

Not blowing smoke up anyone’s arse , and mbe/obe/cbe whatever ,just as important is the man is an utter gentleman.

Right on Bailey, give em hell !

Talking of dedication, I knew a girl who was mad on the Levellers ( I don’t know any of their stuff , but they were big or still are ) she heard about a gig they were doing in st ives so she dives into the car and drove down to Cambridgeshire. It was in Cornwall st ives , did she come home , did she hell , straight on to Cornwall. It was for the music too she wasn’t some besotted teenager after the lead singer 👩‍🎤 she set off from Burnley where she lived at that time

Chalky , my lads live and breathe music, 10 years old when they started, got lessons off an old rocker with hair down to his arse , lol, they saved money for amps and guitars working their way up to classier equipment as they got older , they practiced and practiced till their fingers were bleeding or aching. They actually got boring to listen to them when they were talking about intricacies of guitar playing, lol as I’m bloody clueless when they get too anal about it, and the eldest ( bass) was obsessed with j Jameson and others . And yes they travelled all over the shant to see bands on the up not when every Tom dick n Harry have heard of them . They play in a band and as you probably know the rewards are shit in pubs etc for the travelling humping the equipment etc etc etc , so as for getting paid , fuck me I wouldn’t do it for what that get , then a bloke spins a few records and gets god knows what , after the hours days and years of practice they’ve put in and I’ve seen what it takes .Theyve been with me and their uncle to see the likes of lee fields , Ann sexton, b Womack , r cation , etc they have seen and know great soul , going back to devotion and passion, well I think there is plenty of comparison there and if I add it all up I’d give them 10/10 . I take my hat off to all musicians and the fans that support them and wouldn’t question if they’re more devoted to their scene than someone is to another, how would you know without knowing them , I know so called divs who’ve been everywhere to see bands who’d have sold a kidney to see some bands . I’m not comparing live music to the northern scene either I’m talking about passion/devotion/ dedication, to think that the northern scene is the only scene with them ingredients is folly . There is another world out there , I understand where you’re coming from as I’ve seen it on the northern scene but as the original postersaid “ he couldn’t imagine other music making people feel like he does” , course it does , simple as that . Ps it bloody sickens me when at a live concert and folk bugger off out for a cig or yakking when the acts on, knowing the devotion the musicians and singers put in .

Well my two sons are musicians and I can categorically state they are as passionate about the music they love and play as I am about the soul I love , I don’t see any difference in their passion or anybody else’s if they’re passionate about it! Me and my sons have talked in the past a lot about music and the ‘rush’ it can give you and the goosebumps etc, they get the same , different music , but they get the same rush etc , how anybody can say they don’t or won’t is not talking right !

Texas state uni . I seem to recall

Just seen it was posted before dog!

I can imagine if that had happened to me I’d have had that thousand yard stare syndrome for the rest of my days .

What about the Mickie champion , wasn’t it north of £1000 😳

I can’t imagine the feeling when they realised , you know, just waking up with an hangover then the dread coming over lol ...

Not naming names but I know a chap who got pissed up after djing at a local gig , hailed a cab , to get home , when he got up the next morning he sickeningly realised he’d left a 100 box in the cab , he couldn’t remember the name of the taxi firm or anything so he rings round all the firms in the area to no avail. Probably some pisshead picked them up and frisbeed them somewhere.

It looks like the Nashville has been scratched in by a cat lol

I’m sure there’s one some on you tube ,

Rick was a great bloke , still got my stash of tapes from him , Tim’s alright too lol 😄

Yes vintage they are , but a superb ride and a great pedigree.

Nice bike Joseph , speaking of Colnago’s, my 1995 tecnos , dura ace .

Some people would give two kidneys 😳.!

Just a thought, it’d been easier to get a train and collect in person. 😐bloody PayPal!
