It's up there with versions by The Space Ape and this one by Hot 8 Brass Band who, IIRC, didn't actually know the song, but on @robertluis.bsky.social suggestion, it became a fitting theme to a post Katrina New Orleans www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsyK...

PULP FICTION was released 31 years ago this week. A cultural phenomenon on its release, and the movie that catapulted the career of writer-director Quentin Tarantino, the tale of how it came to be is the Big Kahuna Burger of making-of stories….

An unusual view of The Oval showing painters high on Gasometer No.1 during the 1931 New Zealand Test. Originally New Zealand has been given only one Test but "their good form and sportsmanship" led to extra games being added at The Oval and Old Trafford

Remembering keyboard ace Winston Wright who was born on this day in 1944.

Winston played on many classics in the 60s & 70s from Liquidator to Heart Of The Congos.

On this 7" he really lets loose in this wild Upsetter instrumental..

This is right up there with moments I will hold dear from supporting this club.

The two greatest defenders to ever play for our club in front of the Kop.

Jubilation but, above all, the utmost of mutual respect.

I’m a day late celebrating the 45th birthday of this superb LP. The Beat released I Just Can’t Stop It on 16 May 1980 (according to @whatafuckingrecord.bsky.social who’s more reliable than Wikipedia on these things)

The greatest of all football writers is no more. Brian Glanville had died, aged 93. A model, an inspiration, a mentor. Addio, Brian.

Kenny Dalglish celebrating THAT goal at Chelsea. He wins us the league in his first season as a manager. He only scored 3 league goals that season, but these 3 were: an early opener in a Merseyside derby and 2 important strikes in 2 very tight away games in the final weeks. A true leader.
