this is a random fact I know to be truthful. the towne ballroom is owned by a guy who is best friends with another guy who happens to own 2  canadian rock venues. Both are Bills season ticket holders, tailgate in an airstream in the hammers Lot. I acquainted myself with jc from a prior chatroom. Uber smart man. anyway these types of conversations are bound to happen with bflo people everywhere you look. I reconnected with a high school  classmate at that same previous chat. RIP  Christopher "Vinnie" Vallese

One of the best songs of Ringo's solo career. The studio recording was the last time three Beatles played together before Lennon's death. Here is an "all star" live version...

 

 

The song was written by Lennon. I always thought it was more about him than Ringo. Here is John's version, just discovered a couple of years ago...

One of my favorite Pink Floyd songs. Recorded in 1969, but not released until 1971 in the compilation album "Relics".

 

 

Here is some fascinating documentation of a rehearsal...

"...And we'll send you glad tidings from New York
Open up your eyes so you may see
Ask you not to read between the lines
Hope that you will come in right on time
And they'll talk to you while you're in trances
And you'll visualize not taking any chances
But meet them halfway with love, peace and persuasion
And expect them to rise for the occasion
Don't it gratify when you see it materialize
Right in front of your eyes
That surprise...

I was spinning them in a totally different genre, when I heard this, which made me think I ought to spin this....

 In my sons 7th grade photo he wore THE CLASH London Calling t shirt and his hair was long flipped in poofy waves almost like this lead singer. 

There was that Helmet vid up there, and their thing was prolonging the silences makes the noise noisier. Which naturally (??) led me to think of posting another track from London Calling with a similar pastiche. Odd you reference that very album a few posts on.

 

and thinking about the album, they did a Vince Taylor cover but my favorite version of the song was this careening, barely held-together slopfest by Rory Storm and it’s absolutely glorious.

Was a staple at The Continental back in the day.

I’m positive I’ve heard this. Holy crap. But probably not since 1979 at Home Of The Hits and only because they were letting Mark Freeland pick the tunes or something like that.

 

I can only think of one other track with Leatherette in the name.

Big fan of BOC. Secret Treaties was my fave studio album of theirs - but their first two live albums are what hooked me.  My fave song from each:

 

The lead guitar on this one is outstanding.

Buck Dharma is criminally underrated as a guitar god. But they did get to hang out with Patti Smyth (Allen Lanier more so than the rest) while she was in full Gilda Radner SNL mode.

Never knew who that was on background vocals, nice!  

 

But c'mon man, it's the scandalous Patti Smith not Scandal's Patty Smyth!

Relics was my intro to bizzarro Floyd. Big fan.

 

Big jaw drop and smile a few years back when my kids were watching a Marvel movie and Interstellar Overdrive came on.
