From The Crown S2 E7:

 

Renate Knaup, what a woman. I've been in love with her since 1972.

 

 

 

 

 

30 bob for the album in the local department store . Mother complained, she thought she was just buying me the single 'Help" for 7 shillings and sixpence.

What a classic, such fun to play on the guitar.

Just so many good tunes!

'Well, we all shine on....'

Quincy Jones said recently that the Beatles were OK at music but weren't worth a shit as musicians...he had worked with them as a producer on occasion...

it's OK...the Beatles did enough at the right time during the 60s and fer that ye gots to give them some credit...

 

(bolivian girlfriend in the 60s with black eyes glittering and heaving with lust 'shut off that teenaged shit and put on Frank Sinatra you fool - 'Strangers in the night' was popular at the time...' 16 y.o. and sexually abused by a gorgeous 21 y.o. woman...I was permanently damaged...)

How could you jig a jig jig to 'Strangers in the Night' compared to 'Dr Robert' from 'Revolver'?

No wonder you were permanently damaged.

How's it going with the Vietnamese wife of the local grocery shop owner. Are you still fluttering eyelids across the counter as she slides another packet of cigarettes over?

b.b.but Dr Robert from Revolver was one of the songs she complained about...well, it was her bedroom and her record player so I didn't have much choice...she lived in a 150 y.o house just off the Prado in Cochabamba with her 3 brothers (all 10 years older than me, she was the baby sister and they were extremely protective) and her mother and there was ornamental iron latticework preventing escape from the windows...'I know this sounds stupid but what if one of yer brothers comes home and finds us?' 'leave the worryin' to me tuts and take yer pants off...' she was a modern girl...

 

the corner shop wife is chinese and apparently she's exhibited too much enthusiasm in reply to my compliments and is now distant which is a drag...her engaging smile and cute butt in tight jeans was reason enough to visit the shop even if I didn't need vodka and ciggies...a young shop girl glowers and sez 'and what's wrong with me tutsi?' 'there ain't nothin' wrong wid you sweetheart but yer boss lady's backside has got just a little bit more contour, ye know what I mean?'

 

 

btw some years later I was with a girlfriend (I'm sure that I've mentioned this before on this thread) and I had just put on Beethoven's 'Missa Solemnis' and we soon found ourselves copulating in my bedroom closet on top of some boots after having started in civilized fashion on the sofa in the living room where the stereo was...

 

so that with regard to the bolivian episode and Beatles/Frank Sinatra we can say that sexual passion is in direct proportion to various musical crescendoes...or inversely with dope and dancing and sexual ritualism...young people are foolish but they are simply confused and need to maintain 'face' with regard to their peers...my bolivian girlfriend simply extended her arm and said 'come with me...'

 

'Kyrie!...'

She probably said,

'Here come old flat top He come groovin' up slowly.........come together'

 

 

 

John Lennon and the Quarrymen in 1958 , first recording ever.

 

Buddy Holly was still alive then I think. Both John and Paul claimed that Buddy was one of their greatest influence. 

 

 

 

 

 

the Beatles and the Stones did a lot of covers when they were starting out...

 

'till there was you' from the musical 'the music man'

 

 

'king bee' an old blues standard from slim harpo...

 

 

even Elvis with 'hound dog' by Willie Mae 'Big Mama' Thornton...

 

 

lawdy, lawdeee...

 

the Stones also helped to popularize Willie Dixon's 'little red rooster'...Brian Jones on slide guitar...one of the earliest appearances of slide in popular music...

 

 

1963 and tutsi's on bass and vocal with his pal Walter on harp...righteous...Al on lead never figured out the open tuning and the slide but we kicked ass anyway...we were only 13 - 14 y.o. so what the hey...

 

 

 

 

Saturday night's looming. Time to crank up.

'toss that bottle of vodka over here and turn it up'...150kph in the Isuzu crew cab 'say man, that was some nice shit that you scored tonight...'

Lo, the sun is sinking. Time to get that foot tapping.
