yet another MC Blaast topic that will go nowhere, yet he tries:

Robert Wyatt played and wrote the piano parts on Brian Eno's Music for Airports

HLers know all sorts of shyte, join in whilst markfiend is on his weekend sabbatical, get in there!

I'll have to go look it all up and get back to you, Blastytoots...

Considering it consists of mostly basic piano notes I would seriously doubt that.

Similar musical revelation. This may be old news to Blast or others, but was, well, new news to me when I heard it.

For a brief period in late 1979 / early 1980, Thin Lizzy's tour line up included a pre-Ultravox Midge Ure.

I only very recently discovered that Midge Ure was also in Visage...

That was after the debarcle that was 'The Rich Kids' which followed the sub Bay City Rollers effort - 'Slik'. If ever there was a pretentious tryer that's Midge.

I knew all the above including E Gypsy not being a "team player"

hey! it's a Blast post, I expect it to wither, rapidly

One of my colleagues today learned that you shouldn't use both "Mr" and "Esquire" when addressing a letter to a customer.

And she learned what the word "tautology" means.

*sighs* I heard Rage In Eden on my MP3 player today. That Album doesn't get old for me..
I learnt how nicely a cheapo keyboard will sound when you send it's output through your digital multieffect (cheapo) for your (guesswhat: cheapo) guitar!
Yesterday I learnt that The Cure recorded parts of their earliest albums on a guitar that still was crap compared to mine. A guitar known as Hertiecaster in Germany, sold in the UK via Woolworth if I got it right (So you might call it Woolcaster, as Hertie was the general store chain that sold these sheep guitars here..(see what I did there?))
Tomorrow I'll ask myself what I'm waiting for.

cant play though wish i could

and we never do find out why

Bob Holness played the harmonica on Stevie Wonder's "Isn't She Lovely".


Jim Bowen played guitar on Eric Clapton's "Layla"


Bruce Forsyth played guitar on Jimi Hendrix's "Purple Haze".


All of Bob Dylan's vocals were done by a ferret called Bertie.

I learned that I might've been able to have become a British citizen before I was 18. If only anyone'd known the rules - or had even known that there were any rules to know. Alas.

Sorry Dan, but I highly doubt that's true.



































Who would call a ferret "Bertie", FFS.

Though this is true: Bob Holness was the first British actor to play James Bond, in a 1956 radio adaptation of Moonraker.

I say British, but interestingly he was born in South Africa.

As was Sid James, who worked as a hairdresser in SA before his success in many of the Carry On films.

This thread is already a microcosm of Heartland. There are some real gems to be found if only you can be bothered to sort through the s**t.
