Cliff Richard for example

My cousin was a " roadie " to many of the pop bands of the 60's and 70's. His last stint was with Jimi Hendrix as his tour manager.
Roger Daltrey is my favourite and I'd love him to sign his book for me. Cousin worked for the Who as well.

I still have Cliff's original recording of Livin' Doll, 7" vinyl.

I don't mind disagreeing/having a good debate Anniebach as long as no one is abusive. When I feel strongly about something its good to get another opinion. Everything is rarely black and white. I'm off to the cinema now to see a comedy - lighten up after all this ! I do hope you have a nice evening.?

Enjoy your evening annep x

And if I seem abrupt sometimes its just because I'm usually rushing.

Ellan Livin' Doll
That was the first recording of Cliff's that I loved in my teenage years.
But nowadays the lyrics wouldn't go down well:
Take a look at her hair, it's real
If you don't believe what I say, just feel
I'm gonna lock her up in a trunk so no big hunk
Can steal her away from me'.
Reminds me of the passage in the OT where Jacob put Dinah in a box when he went to meet Esav, because she was so beautiful.

Yes Fennel,still remember the words. I think I bought it in 1956 and I remember my mum was going to put it in the bin ! Devil music she called it and didn't Cliff go on to record Devil woman ? hahahaha. I don't think mum was alive when he brought that out.

I haven't read that Fennel. interesting. I wonder is that where it came from. I wasn't a great Cliff fan ( or Elvis - we were alk supposed to favour obe or the other!). But I liked some songs. The Day I Met Marie is my favourite.

Lucky cousin Ellenvannin.

I'd most likely find £100 if it was possible to see Elvis!

Oh Elvis. I'd pay more than that to see him!But like many on this thread I would have ot be paid to see Cliff Richard but feel how much he expects his tickets to cost is nothing to do with his charitable feelings and actions.

Jane10 and MargaretX I think there's something you both need to know about Elvis …..

Sshh
<whispers>
Elvis has left the building.

People actually pay to watch him perform? ?

Sir Cliff that is.

I heard he's working in our chip shop (Elvis that is, not Sir Cliff)

Realy Trisher ? Good for him at 83 ?

If you go to a theatre in London good seats cost that. Even at our local theatre it is £60 plus.

trisher

Is he only 83?
I thought he'd be much older than that by now
(had he not left the building)

Ear worm, thanks trisher!

I have to share:

In contrast, my daughter and I have just booked seats to see Marty Wild, Eden Kane and Mike Berry in Skegness this coming May, at £26 each, 3 rows from the front.
