[Image description: A digital drawing based on the film Shallow Grave. Alex Law is at the centre of the piece, face set in an anxious grin. His eyebrows are furrowed in worry. There's a drill hole in his forehead that's dripping blood, and also a knife in his left shoulder that is also bloody. He's stuck in a vast pile of dirt, which travels up to his waist. One of his hands is slightly submerged while the other is pulling a telephone out of the dirt. The latter one is near some drops of blood on the ground. Further down, there's a pile of money seemingly beneath the dirt. Further up and behind Alex, there's the silhouettes of two graves and a shovel leaning on the second one. The first is very bloody, while the other has less blood splattered on. The night sky is dark and starless, though there is a bright red moon in the sky. The colours for the piece are similarly red-toned.]

Can any of y’all tell what the red-and-black thing is this guy is wearing? I can’t tell if it’s just a design on his clothes or the black parts are separate pieces

Y otra despedida que me apena especialmente, la de Ian Amey, el "Tich" de los ultrapop Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich. El hombre de la guitarra fuzz, mi favorito. Ian falleció también el pasado 16 de febrero. Para mí estas dos canciones en el programa Beat Club no tienen precio. En "Hideaway" hace su "solazo" en 1' 22", los cámaras se despistan, se equivocan y lo enfocan tarde.

Bastante más acertados están en "Hold Tight" y le sacan como es debido en el inicio en 2' 43" y se lleva todo el protagonismo en el GLORIOSO solo entre 3' 57" y 4' 20". ¡¡Vaya poderoso y elegante sonidazo, amigo!! Ian mira a los demás con suficiencia como diciendo: "lo tengo y lo tenemos". Claro. Súper.

By macabre coincidence an event that took place around Bristol marks a major turning point in the story of pop music. Eddie Cochran died hours after appearing at the Bristol Hippodrome in 1960, as part of the Larry Parnes-produced Anglo-American rock ’n’ roll package tour. Two of the people who shared a stage with Cochran that night were Tony Sheridan and a Liverpudlian singer called Johnny Gentle. Both were under contract to Parnes and both would play a significant role in the history of the most influential British act of all time, the Beatles. Sheridan, the first British rock ’n’ roller to sing and play his own guitar live on British TV, would become best known for the recordings he made in Hamburg with the Beatles shortly before they found fame.

Parnes was the first manager in Britain to become as famous as his artists – the Simon Cowell of his day – with a stable of singers including Tommy Steele, Britain’s first real rock ’n’ roll star, Marty Wilde, Billy Fury, Vince Eager and others. He was also homosexual, a dangerous thing to be at a time when gay men were routinely arrested, fined or even imprisoned.

Their tour was due to take a break after a week of shows in Bristol, and Cochran and co-headliner Gene Vincent wanted to get home to America. Cochran was in a hurry to get to London, where he was going to meet up with Vince Eager before the pair flew to the States together, and Cochran and Vincent rented a private hire taxi, driven by George Martin from Hartcliffe, to take them. Shortly after 11pm on 16 April 1960, their car set off from Bristol’s Royal Hotel (now the Bristol Marriott Royal, on College Green) for London Airport.

Sadly, none of the passengers would make their flight. Less than an hour out of Bristol, Martin realised he had taken a wrong turn. On Rowden Hill, a notorious accident black spot near Chippenham, he lost control and the car spun backwards, hitting a lamppost. The impact of the crash sent Cochran up into the roof of the car and forced the rear passenger side door open, throwing him onto the road. Martin and tour manager Patrick Thompkins, who were in the front of the vehicle, were able to walk away uninjured. The three passengers who had occupied the back seat – Eddie, Gene and Eddie’s girlfriend Sharon Sheeley – were lying on the grass verge. All three were rushed to Chippenham Cottage Hospital, before being transferred to St Martin’s Hospital, just outside Bath. Vincent had broken his collarbone, Sheeley was badly bruised and concussed, but Cochran was seriously injured and would not regain consciousness: he died in hospital in Bath the following day. A young police cadet, David Harman, was among those called to help clear the scene after the crash. Harman would later find fame as Dave Dee, front man of the hit group Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick and Tich.

Three weeks after Cochran’s death, Larry Parnes auditioned the Beatles to act as the backing group to his big signing, Billy Fury. They did not win that booking, but he hired them to play with Johnny Gentle on a short tour of Scotland. All of the Beatles were fans of Cochran and Vincent, and lapped up Gentle’s tales of life on the road with the two big American stars. When the 17-year-old George Harrison discovered that Gentle owned the shirt that Cochran had worn on stage in Bristol for that last show he begged the singer to give it to him.

ok embarrassing time. i was tagged by @andypartridges and @anynameisbetterthanmyfirstone to tag the top five songs i have been listening to.

okay! by dave dee, dozy, beaky, mick & tich

here's the thing - i am insane. i was going through some old playlists from 2021 and this song appeared more time than it should . because it's shit. this song fucking sucks. i hate it. yet it is singlehandedly the catchiest song i've heard and unfortunately when i have a single second of spare thought this song will just appear in my head and will stay there for fucking HOURS until i listen to it.

2. rent by pet shop boys

VERY underrated song in the psb's catalogue. i love this song so much- the lyrics, the music, the general **vibe** of the song. it also works so well!!

3. don juan by dave dee, dozy, beaky, mick & tich

idk i feel like a matador when i hear this song without having the deal with the bull. also this song was on repeat during my last night in soho days. remember that??????

4. afterglow (of your love) by the small faces

this song causes the biggest rush of emotions and feelings despite hearing it like a dozen times. something about marriott's voice with all its vulnerability and passion, especially in the chorus, just does something to me. i feel him grab my heart and literally show it in front of my eyes.

5. have i the right by the honeycombs

very catchy. love the story behind this one. them stamping their feet on some floorboards to make that noise!!!! genius!!!!!
