Watched an excellent doc on Eel pie Island last night ( BBC4) - used to live not far but just too young to get into the hedonism that went on - but it really was the start of the music scene in London - ironically it talked about a Jazz legend at the beginning who went to the US to play Jazz blues with black performers in New Orleans - got some to come back to play at the hotel - two tone beginnings - as it went on the bands that i know better also played there including Stray - Del Bromham from Stray was interviewed - met one of the women who they interviewed as a visitor some years ago - she s a writer - Houch , BBR defo one for you

As I've been listening to Absolute Rock a lot lately they play this track it seems at least once a day every day. And it's by the Police a band I never really got into to be honest. And got to admit I think it's brilliant: Synchronicity 11 have heard it countless times now, and still love it.

Big fan of theirs BBR apart from Zinyata Mondays album .

Wouldn't pay the ridiculous price for the reunion gigs however .. Synchronicity 1 weren't bad either ,even though it sounds a bit speeded up.lol.

I was in a private hospital in North London many years ago and when you had finished physio treatment for the day, you could wander off as long as you let staff know. Anyway, me and another bloke decided to have a wander round the local area and ended up in the Old Bull & Bush pub in Hampstead. While we were supping our pints, in walked this tall, blonde bloke in a full length, long leather coat, followed by two huge beefy, shaven-headed geezers. It was Sting. Dunno what he was doing in there, but he just disappeared into a side room.

Was it a jumper he used to wear while teaching?
Looked like a bee?

Spot on. He had a jumper he wore often and the pupils said he looked like a bee or wasp. So it then became sting as a nickname. How about Lemmy and his nickname ?

Before becoming a budding rock star he was always skint, and was always asking for money. He had that Staffordshire accent and it sounded like " Lemmy a tenner, Lemmy twenty till I get paid. " So from that arose the nickname Lemmy.

All this isolation malarkey and less getting out more than usual makes me drop off in the afternoon. I fell asleep earlier and woke up with the radio still on. What a track to liven me up though: Rocking In The Free World by Neil Young. What a track !
