I watched this last week. Made seven years ago. It was great. These guys are badasses.
So badass that Wilko Johnson got to chop Ned Starks head off
Lee was a hardman alright. Wilko has made his improvised choppy guitar into an emulated style. Never saw them live but their shows were apparently full on energy. Good to hear that Wilko seems to have got past his health scare where is was thought he only had months to live.

"'They said they wanted somebody really sinister who went around looking daggers at people before killing them. That made it easy. Looking daggers at people is what I do all the time, it's like second nature to me'."

That's great. Looking psycho has always been his natural visage and it has only improved with age.
Here's an old live clip of the Feelgoods

Just been listening to the rest of The Strypes new alum released today. Still wearing their influences on their sleeves. One minute you'd swear you were listening to The Jam, then Feelgood, then Squeeze but these young kids (still under 20) are really finding their own sound from those influences now.
Saw them live the other night and it was like going to a gig when I was their age. So much energy and fun. Will be a pity when they outgrow small venues though because the atmosphere was really suited to them.This is an older song but the clip is from this month. Below is a photo from the famous rock photographer Derek D'Souza taken during the same song at the gig I was at. (I was standing right next to him as he was shooting). Top band and great to see a load of young kids getting into real music.

While reading a book on prog rock, I cracked up at this Vangelis anecdote:
JON ANDERSON WAS COPING with the separation from Yes. In short order he sought out Vangelis, whom he warmly remembered trying to court for the band when Wakeman originally quit. “I saw photographs of him playing four or five keyboards at the same time, and laser beams behind him,” Anderson would recall. “It was unbelievable. I had to meet this guy.” When he did, Vangelis greeted the singer in “a kaftan way down to the floor and a big bow and arrow around his shoulders and arrows coming out of a quiver,” displaying archery before he got down to the music.
