  1. You're a persistent fellow. You've piqued my interest. I'll go! Thanks.
  2. Perhaps I have. Considering the number of Brits in Bangkok I thought I'd be inundated with recommendations. Is it strange to seek recommendations?
  3. Do they have a selection of British fare? Otherwise, the location is convenient for me as I am just down Bang Na Trad Road.
  4. Check out The Londoner. I've never been there but by all appearances it looks to be the real deal. The menu looks mouthwatering with a generous selection. 1178 Phatthanakan Rd, Suan Luang, Bangkok 10250 Bistro 33 on Sukhumvit Soi 33 is purely a restaurant and offers British fare, too.
  5. Looks scrumptious and perhaps in the future when they reopen. Thanks. Not strictly British food, though.
  6. Assumptions are the mother of all . . . well, you know. My gaffe. Bangkok.
  7. I'm interested in an exhaustive menu of British delights. I've eaten at the Bistro 33 on Sukhumvit Soi 33 quite a few years ago but can't seem to remember much. That's about the extent of my experience with British restaurants, other than pub food. I was looking at the Londoner menu online and it looks to offer quit an array of authentic food and seems reasonably priced. Any suggestions?
  8. I don't know about anyone else but I listened to that exceptional Kinks performance half a dozen times. Of course, perhaps I'm not like everyone else. That's gotta be one of my best finds in a long time. That puppy has been downloaded to my archives.
  9. Just stumbled upon The Kinks performing I'm Not Like Everybody Else live somewhere sometime. No info on this. But it's the best version I've heard. My neighbors are enjoying this immensely as well. Rock 'n' roll is meant to be listened to loud.
  10. Pink Floyd performing One Of These Days, a BBC Radio Session recorded on 30 Sept. '71.
  11. Thanks, @Mutt Daeng. My daughter seriously wants to go to the UK but I'm a bit concerned about how she will be received there. She looks Thai, speaks American English, and was raised from birth by a German. She doesn't know what the capital city is, the name of the river which runs through London, what exactly makes up the United Kingdom, or who the King is. She does, though, know of Queen Elizabeth. Harry and Megan . . . never heard of them. So not all terrible. A close and dear friend of ours who currently lives in Blighty is cleaning out his garage as a starter for her as I write (but I must provide the bedding) and promises to teach her the Queen's English and some of Britain's fabulous history. I now refer to her as farang and she's been instructed to refer to french fries as chips going forward. Now to wrap it all up I need to find a great British restaurant in Bangkok where we can celebrate this momentous event and where I can savour a pale ale and introduce my daughter to some of the UK's finest delectables . . . such as Yorkshire pudding (yum). Some examples of what I would like to see on the menu (my sincere apologies for wetting your appetite, especially if there is naught you can do about it ).
  12. The final follow-up to share the excellent news that my daughter's UK passport is available to be picked up. Seven weeks from the interview date, so not so terribly bad. Now we have to find a good UK restaurant in Bangkok to go celebrate. Suggestions anyone?
  13. Perhaps Sha Na Na was the first '50's retro band. Back in the States in the late '60s there were a number of "oldie" stations. "Oldie" being a mere 10~15 years old. Greaser music. A Teenager In Love off of their debut '69 Rock & Roll Is Here To Stay! album.
  14. Derek & The Dominos performing Tell The Truth at the Fillmore East on Oct. 23-24, '70. Found on the Derek & The Dominos: Live At The Fillmore released in '94.
  15. Perhaps they're best know for a true '60's classic, the title track of their '67 Let's Live For Today LP. This is the uncensored version so use discretion before hitting "play."
  16. As with so many artists I can't find any '70 Fillmore East recordings of Pacific Gas & Electric but I did come across this excellent performance of Motor City's Burning recorded live at the Federal Drug Rehab Center in Lexington, KY, in Aug. '70.
  17. The Elvin Bishop Group performing Crazy 'Bout You Baby at the Fillmore East on Sept. 23, '70.
  18. Ten Years After performing I'm Going Home at Fillmore East recorded on February 27–28, '70, off of their Live At The Fillmore East 1970 LP released in 2001.
  19. The New Riders Of The Purple Sage performing Henry at Fillmore East on May 15, '70.
  20. Neil Young and Crazy Horse featuring guitarist Danny Whitten performing Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere at Fillmore East on Mar. 6, '70. Off of the Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere. Live At The Fillmore East CD, released in 2006
  21. I find the audio quality in the above concert performance lacking. So here's a BBC recording circa '70-'71 of this beautiful number. Found on their 2017 release, The Early Years 1971 Reverber/ation
  22. Pink Floyd performing their Atom Heart Mother classic Fat Old Sun at Fillmore East on Sept. 27, '70.
  23. Johnny Winter performing And - Rollin' And Tumblin' at Fillmore East on Oct. 3, '70.
  24. Van Morrison performing These Dreams Of You at Fillmore East on Sept. 23, '70.
  25. Sly & The Family Stone performing Dance To The Music at Fillmore East on Oct. 4-5, '70.
