Blur vs Steptoe

Credit where credit is due: Yesterday, another iain started a thread about mash ups. Ghost mentioned a mash up of Blur's Park Life and the Steptoe & Son theme. A quick Google turned it up on YouTube. I posted it on the original thread but since that is now among the back pages I thought I would repost here.

Live Stones

The Stones' Brussels Affair bootleg has been mentioned here a few times. Anyone wishing to hear what all the fuss is about can hear for themselves at Wolfgang's Vault where it is being streamed.
On the subject of Stones' bootlegs, Big O still has Liv'r Than You'll Ever Be available.

Wiki prog too much effort?

This is Metallizer. It will generate a fictional band, album, track listing and sleeve.

Butchered:
Execute Your Euphoria

Track listing:
Defiler of Passion
Adulterated Karma
Severe Gloom
The Slayer and The Verses
Betrayed By Rapture
Between Bliss and Aggression
Behold The Blasphemy
The Cemetary of Mercy
One Billion Names of The Blasphemer

(Couldn't get the sleeve to show).

Great Moments in Lip-Synching

I've just read Peter Guralnick's biography of Sam Cooke. In it, he mentions a TV appearance where Sam and Jackie Wilson lip-synched to Sam Cooke's Everybody Loves to Cha-Cha-Cha.
And it's on YouTube.
