You do realise the chap who wrote that song , Sammy King , was from Batley...
Odd thing, ain't it... you meet people one at a time, they seem decent, they got brains that work, and then they get together and you hear the voice of the people. And it snarls.

Roy Orbison wasn't that good.

Also, how did he know that she was a pretty woman, wearing those glasses?
He was just a poor man's Lennie Peters.

Most Queen stuff to be honest.

Your wiseness has made a welcome return Piggy.

And Undi would agree.....

Thank you very much Piggy, I just snorted coffee up my nose.

He was a good addition to The Traveling Wilburys line up. Great session band, the TWs. IMHO, natch.

Like a lot of epic tracks - Hey Jude, Freebird, MacArthur Park - about four minutes too long.

Everything by the Traveling Wilburys.
I know a man who taught his dog to play the trumpet on the London Underground.
He went from Barking to Tooting in an hour.

I love a bit of guitar, not so keen on McArthur Park though.
Having said that, we saw Clapton a few years back, very arrogant. Put me off his music though some holds strong memories so can never dislike them.
Rory Gallagher is a much better guitarist.

Love the Travelling Wilburys.

Yes, Rory Gallagher was in a different league.
I remember Robin Trower boring the pants off everyone with his guitar solos,
I liked the Wilburys as well, but they should have stopped at the one LP.
