Farewell Mick Ralphs. Forget Bad Company, Mick was the original guitar god in Mott the Hoople and they never really recovered from his departure. His guitar solo at the end of this cover is so thoughtful and majestic. You were a major part of my life. Cheers mate.

My brother woke me up in the middle of the night and dragged me to the landing. I saw a nurse standing there holding a new born baby. It was the first glimpse of my sister with whom I'll be sharing Christmas.

We were bundled into a coach and driven to London to see Tutankhamen's treasures. Of course the school hadn't bothered to book, the queue was about ten miles long and we never got in!
