While staring at the CD wall this afternoon my daughter asked "Where are The Velvet Underground?"

Roger (The Immortal) Nichols.

Celebrated, if for nothing else after an illustrious engineering career, for having his disembodied hand on the faders on the back of Countdown to Ecstasy.

How disappointing. I was looking forward to Roger Moore starring in a biopic of Michael Palin.

There is no mention on the BBC tickets site so I don't know the exact status of this but it's worth an email to the addy in the link.

That's Anthony H. Wilson to you sonny.

No Deposit No Return Blues.
A film on American musican Sandy Bull by his daughter. An interesting, and often overlooked, figure, his early adaption of the world/raga/psychedelic thang coincided with his transatlantic contemporary Davey Graham.
Tomorrow at London's wonderful Horse Hospital.

Is there any tribute act that is so successful that they themselves have a tribute act?
And, if they did, what would they be called?
Re-Björn Again?

As ever Dean Swift was there before us:

"So nat'ralists observe, a flea
Hath smaller fleas that on him prey,
And these have smaller fleas that bite 'em,
And so proceed ad infinitum."
