Re: Accy Web video jukebox.

Loved the Feelgoods (RIP Lee). Saw them live a couple of times, absolutely brilliant. I spent hours trying to play the riff to 'She Does it Right' like Wilko.

Here's another great British R & B...

Yeah, I like that. Sounds like they were having a party in the studio. Got to admit, the only R & B albums I have are compilations and at the time I was buying a lot of this stuff, I was buying them...

Re: Accy Web video jukebox.

Low quality audio, but a great performance of Carole King's song. The poor tenor sax player is blowing his heart out, but all you can hear is the alto. Someone's mic not turned on.

Re: Accy Web video jukebox.

I like that. I've never heard of Tiny Bradshaw before, but sure I know the song.

I saw CB at KGH, 28th May 1980 (still got my ticket). He was OK, but didn't seem to be trying anymore, just seemed...

Re: Old accy picrures

It is in the 1925 Barrett's actually.

There's also a Robert Clark - Boot factor in the 1894 Barrett's, but at a different address, (30 Willow Street)

I did Macbeth at O level too.

Shakespeare also said ''A fool thinks himself to be wise, but a wise man knows himself to be a fool''
