See if this brings back a few more NC. This is pretty much how I remember Thorpie. Dirtiest guitar sound ever with everything dialled up to speaker-exploding levels. I was too young for Sunbury or to get into The Whitehorse back in those days but it must have been something else !

Went to see him at The Palais in '19 I think. Was familiar with his work with Beth Hart but knew nothing of his solo stuff except his reputation as a guitarist. Went with my mate who's a massive fan & rather than study up beforehand, decided to go in cold. Great gig. Amazing band, amazing backup singers - Mahalia Barnes, Jade MacRae & another lass from Sydney who's name escapes me at the moment. A mouth watering array of guitars he used and he played the hell out of every one of them. Much better singer & entertainer than I was expecting as well. Loved it. Your post has prompted me to share one of my favourite parts of YouTube. Joe Bonamassa & Jimmy Barnes covering Deep Purple's "Lazy". Barnsey is no Ian Gillan but he does a great job here. Nine minutes of joy.

Tough task HT. There's tons of live Stones stuff to be found on the www these days. Including some early gigs. Thought I'd make myself a playlist on Spotify of a few favourite live tracks. Bloody thing goes for two and a half hours. All awesome

So awesome. How amazing is Lisa Fischer ? There is a brilliant doco called "20 Feet From Stardom" about backing singers. In it Merry Clayton recalls doing the "Gimme Shelter" recording session. "I'm gonna blow 'em outta the room". I highly recommend checking out the full doco but here's Merry's bit

Still so many ways the Browns can "Cleveland" this game.

Indianapolis 17 @ Buffalo 31 LA Rams 21 @ Seattle 24 Tampa Bay 31 @ Washington 13 Ravens 24 @ Titans 28 Bears 21 @ Saints 35 Browns 31 @ Steelers 28

Fans of "The Sopranos" tv series will be familiar with this song but maybe not this version. Intriguing band. Wish I'd discovered them years earlier.

No-one keen to show their cards ? So - Baltimore, Seattle and the Miracle Man Alex Smith to return to lead Washington to victory

I saw that. Last Demon drop kick I can recall seeing. Kicking to the city end on the outer side. Couldn't believe he kicked a set shot drop kick but it went as straight as an arrow. Reckon you might have robbed him of a few metres Meggs - I think he was a little further out

Nah, Melbourne HT. The Sydney joint is one I found online in my search for a stylus.

Still have my turntable from 1981 although finding a replacement stylus is becoming harder. Found a joint in Sydney that still stocks them. Agree on the cost of vinyl these days. My daughter has become a vinyl fan in recent years- she's lucky to find an album under 50 bucks ! She's also a fan of a lot of "my" generations music to the point that the sounds coming from her room sound a lot like mine in 1977. She's also liberated a fair few from her aunties who were divesting themselves of their record collections. For the past few years I've had a weekly catch-up with a few mates. Armed with guitars & suchlike we set about playing (slaughtering) a range of songs from classic to obscure. During restrictions we've substituted this with a Zoom meeting and decided that seeing we couldn't play, we'd do album reviews. While that has been great fun, we all agree that despite the accessibility advantages of Spotify, the experience of listening to an album was better when you had the record sleeve to peruse as you listened. Especially if it contained the lyrics.

and you missed the one where he got poleaxed putting his body on the line. He's cheap, experienced insurance. If we have a good year he doesn't play a game. That doesn't make signing him a bad thing

Can we have a pinned thread ? WERRIDEE'S Rolling Best 22

Had to laugh at Kennett imploring Smith & Gunston to be "one club players". They pinched Gunston from Adelaide.
