When our musos go, it really rattles me too. God knows what I’ll do when Keith goes.

There’s a suggestion that he’s actually been around since the Big Bang.

Will have to post next playlist tonight. This laptop refuses to accept that I HAVE updated word and won’t let me copy print or do anything useful until I hassle Microsoft in India.

Starsailor a bit modern for us old blokes, but they have the hook 🙂

Starsailor was included due to the Phil Spector link. They weren’t a band II knee much about.

I had a thing about girl bands of the sixties, so many to choose from, oh and Dusty Springfield.

I think Phil Specter was behind the Ronettes. I like them too – and the Motown bands like Diana Ross and the Supremes.

He was, his trademark Wall of sound. In later years though he ended up in gaol for murder.
