I had the privilege of seeing him play for fulham once, against (my team, ahem) crystal palace.3-2 to fulham, he scored one of them. no matter which team he played for, against whichever opponent, he was still 'george best' - the greatest player there has been.

Thank you so much for posting these tracks.

TL is a big hearted genius, for sure, but what makes these songs even better, is that the big hearted genius, Dr Tom Lehrer is still very much among us (he's 83, and as sparklingly witty as ever). And poignantly, many of his songs still feel very relev...

@PhonicLion Tell the world that this song is incorrect, and women are NOT restricted in the way Francine says. Otherwise it is these restrictions and the treatment of women in Saudi Arabia which are offensive. Oh, and by the way, freedom of speech and a sense of humour - do you find these things ...

Ahhhh, happy days....xxx ;-)

I think this was at the Beat-o-mania festival in Munich. We headlined the Friday (I think) with Rudi Protrudi on the Saturday. We'd just come from the other end of Germany and were knackered...matthew (drummer)

Like so many others, if HH had exosted when I was at school, I'd be a historian by now. How good is this?!x

You're a star! Thought I'd never hear it again! Thanks amigo,xxx

This is why Billy Connolly is the greatest stand-up ever. This is from 1981 - he was still just regarded as a relative newcomer. Five minutes of sublime story telling, like as if it was just you and him, in a pub somewhere...and then the payoff. My favourite joke/story. I would never tell it myse...

don't wanna get morbid, or anything, but I'm gonna have 'Days' as my funeral song. I LOVE the Who, and therefore I LOVE the Kinks, or rather Ray and Dave,...xxx

I love OCC - it's called American Chopper in the UK, & we've only been getting it for a couple of years - on Freeview, anyway. They run it with American Hotrod - the Boyd Codrington show, & the contrast is amazing. OCC are far more creative and gifted, but more importantly, Sr gives credit where...

You dancin...!xxx

Apparently (bad start to a sentence!) this song, or at least this version, relates to Neville Shute's novel 'On the beach', about the aftermath of a northern hemisphere nuclear war upon the southern hemisphere - namely australia. The book is heartbreaking. If that is indeed what the song is inspi...

I assume 'ThePutte' has never told the same joke twice. Stewart Francis is extremely funny and fresh. If I wrote only a couple of his one-liners, I'd trade on them for years!...xxx

The first bass line I ever learnt. Fantastic.

For the baby boomers, the biggest problem was this - viz A Hard Day's Night(1964) man on train: I fought the war for your sort. ringo: I bet you're sorry you won.

How can you top your parents when they'd wonTHE WAR?Easy, as it happens, the Who just said, just cos... don't mean you're better than ...

I am a mod, I was the drummer of the Clique, and for me, this is pure psych-beat,x

Just remember, this was their last song in a blistering set, in front of 1/2 million people. And they weren't exactly famous. How together was this band, esp. Alvin,?

imho, this is the greatest artistic statement of the 20th century. You can hear the death, the destruction and the lies, duplicity and corruption, and underneath it all, the poor victims, not just the vietnamese - but noble, decent G.I.s who were faced with such a terrible scenario, not of the...

It's STILL Jimi's world - we're just living in it!xxx

How clever we all are, pulling apart the work of the greatest guitarist, and possibly greatest musician of all time. Go ahead, after you lot, you obviously know better than Hendrix himself...

This was never meant to be released. It's ok, though, isn't it? matthew (drums)

i loved playing this track, thanks, matthewxxx

thanks, guys, matthew,xxx

His sister used to live in Terrapin Road, Tooting, london SW17

the best lyric of all time - and we got no class, and we got no principals,and we got no innocence, we can't even think of a word that rhymes - genius!

How did you fuckwit white americans miss such genius first time round?!! Thank God for Europe, the UK and civilisation, which is utterly colourblind!xxx

i'm a Hendrix devotee, but this is as far from JH as it's possible to get - and it's magnificent, pure, astonishing GENIUS!xxx - And he was most probably drunk at the time (he died sadly beginning of last year, from complications of alcoholism - he was only 60) but, my god, could he play!

Nicksievers1, don't take this the wrong way, but I think u r so cool! A free-thinking 13 year old who loves the Who! I'm 41, English,and I got into the Who when I was 12, and because of them, and especially Keith Moon, I became a pro-drummer.

You are your age group's prophet! Go tell everyone how...
