Seem to remember 10538 Overture was their first single in the early seventies. Edited by mr. apollo (22 Jun 2022 9.50am)

Pulp and Angel olsen have been most enjoyable for me I always loved Pulp's song 'Something Changed'. Conversational, yet pretty and relatable. Cocker always managed to create interesting themes and perspectives in his music. Quite an eccentic character, and a real talent.. [Link]

Maybe Midland meant 78? Which is when I would regard them as in their prime

Edited by mr. apollo (22 Jun 2022 9.50am) In fact in 1968 Jeff Lynn was still with Idle Race. He left them early 1970 to join The Move after failing to achieve much commercial success with them. I did see them play at the Fairfield Halls in June 1969 supporting The Nice, although I cam remember nothing of their performance that night. Edited by Pete53 (23 Jun 2022 1.49pm)

On the subject of Glastonbury, I wrote in my OP that my festival days are over, then on the news last night I saw an 82 yr old lady going through the gates with a walking frame for goodness sake and telling us her secret for getting near the front of the Pyramid stage. Made me feel a tad feeble I have to say. Good luck to the old duck I thought and hope she bloomin' well enjoys herself.
Dad and I watched games standing on the muddy slope of the Holmesdale Road end. He cheered and I rattled. |

Just a comment really. There always seems to be a Welsh flag flying from a tall bendy pole at the front of the crowd soon after kick-off. Just saying Edited by Forest Hillbilly (25 Jun 2022 5.25pm)
