Heads Up For The Music Fans.

[Togo]

I don't know whether you all caught Ian Hunter on the Johnnie Walker Sounds of the Seventies show. If you missed it use the iplayer and have a listen. Well worth it, amazing guy still full of viss and pinegar at 79. Thinking Capito here, amongst others.

Thanks- will listen later. But was it a repeat as he has interviewed someone from Mott The Hoople (and I recollect it was Ian Hunter) before on this show in the last two years?

[Togo]

New interview today FF as far as I know. I tend to listen in to the show and cannot recall any of the content. That of course may just be me. :)) Great interview by the way.

He has interviewed him before, in 2016.

A popular guest no doubt.

Might have a look at that, Togo, when the footy is over. MTH were one of my fav groups and i saw them at the Rainbow in '72 or '73. Their support act that day were 'Home' and i became a big fan of theirs. Had they not split up after just 3 albums, they may well have been my all time fav band ahead of Queen.

Proper amusing and down to earth Brummie Ken. He tells a few anecdotes about The Clash and E Street Band amongst others.

Have you still got the "flares" and platform shoes Ken? I know that the perm is long gone. (^_*)

Saw MtH in 1973 at the Hammersmith Odeon, when the support band was Queen. It was the gig that seriously over ran, resulting in the management dropping the safety curtain......
