Your answer may have not been correct, but i think Hank and his red guitar matched the description best. And I'm sure Mark would agree.

Gone forever I'm afraid. It's ironic that Parmigiani, which used to be on the corner of Old Compton St and Frith St is a corporate chain coffee shop. The great Bifulco butchers, directly opposite also went years ago.

Such a shame. The great Italian delicatessens always look so beautiful at Christmas, and Camisa was no exception. I used to manage a shop about 100 yards up the road and I shamelessly stole every idea from Camisa and Parmigiani.

My wife and daughter are going tonight. I'll recommend they go tooled-up.

I've just seen somewhere else that picture is Cambridge. The year I met them would have been 1971 or 1972. Lovely people.

That picture would have been taken round about the time I served them when I was working in Fortnum & Mason. Could even have been the same day, as I think that's Bond St, round the corner. I remember Paul had the bluest eyes I've ever seen

Hi Ian - you're right, it hasn't aged and is a wonderful piece of music. There are about 5 disco tracks I couldn't separate: from Chic, Sheila B Devotion and Sister Sledge.

....and this was next: The Rolling Stones with a great song that never seems to get played live or on the radio

This one came next. After a day watching elite athletes playing cricket, football and rugby, Willie De Ville is the antidote to all that healthy stuff.

He deserves the start at the weekend

That was great. It should be a regular thing during Trump Season Two.

They were certainly guilty of crimes against fashion, but an absolutely top class live band. Yep, it was raucous.

Nice goal from Mudryk. I'm still hoping he can show that he's not only as fast as a speeding bullet.

That didn't sound too great, but I saw Slade/Ambrose Slade probably in 1969. The club was packed full of skinheads chanting for Reggae. The boys had none of it and blew the roof off.

Great picture of my favourite building 😎

It's been a long time since I watched this, and I'm ready to do it again. BTW, sorry to see there's a couple of X type responses on this thread.
