  1. He's given up alcohol too, hasn't he? Good on ya, Lord Page. The only (publicly known!) vice left for him is smoking. P.S. Sorry, I must disagree about Grohl's alleged resemblance to Jimmy - no way! Not even on his best day, with a team of stylists and a paper sack to put over his head.
  2. They should ask for Mick Jagger's hairdresser - he has lovely, thick hair. It's always a natural brown, never too dark.
  3. He rarely takes a bad picture, that Mr. Page.
  4. Oh the humanity... that could have been a great epic Zep song.

    Thank you, Strider! What the hell happened with Djokovic though - he wasn't himself at all. I think he must have been ill, perhaps from the intense heat and humidity.
  6. I was sad to hear of Survivor's Jimi Jamison passing away at only 65. Really enjoyed his muscular yet tender voice - and he was mighty easy on the eyes too: http://www.cnn.com/2014/09/02/showbiz/survivor-singer-death/ I Can't Hold Back: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaMcsKtBDwE
  7. The mad riffing over primordial pagan chants (Black Dog) But you know, "Down By the Seaside" has a lovely ending too - that kind of last golden twinkling of the day, then silence.
  8. Thank you - I'm a big Hank fan.
  9. That's a lovely photo. Who's the lady?

    Roger beat Tommy Robredo in straight sets - HA! And Nadal is out - woo-hoo! [i don't hate Spaniards, I just want Federer to sail through]
  11. He's so beautiful he can get away with wearing aggressively ugly/nerdy clothes In the telescope photo - I think that's in the boathouse at Pangbourne? - that looks like an Asian tree root sculpture.
  12. Fascinating - never saw this one before. Thank you, Scylla!
  13. 4-hour tribute to The Zombies on WPRK (archived, thankfully) plus an interview with Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone - bloody amazing how much sublime music they've created: https://archive.org/details/ZombiesWPRKInterviewWithRodArgentAndColinBlunstone
  14. It's down to the sexy accents, mate
  15. I believe his "church" is mostly made up of family members. Hopefully, it will fade away. They're like cult members probably - once the powerful personality is gone, they'll slowly revert to themselves.
  16. So sad. She was a very talented lady.
  17. I dig opals of all kinds. Simple as that. Clw could be believable as a Welsh name.
  18. I meant no offense. The programme sounds interesting; I hope it makes its way stateside someday. P.S. Thank you, Strider: you're a gentleman and a scholar
  19. I can't tell if you're being droll or sincere. Or sincerely droll. How did they celebrate the winter solstice, since it's almost upon us? Wait: these are monks, feasting on pork 'n ale? I thought they were to live quiet, scholarly lives and abstain from all bodily pleasures.
  20. Bring on the jazz flute - yes!
  21. Thank you. Wasn't this the bit from Lucifer Rising, or similar to the music composed for that film?
  22. Holy cow, isn't that Nathaniel Parker? He's an Englishman, but i always thought he resembled Keanu Reeves (Canadian).
  23. I'm sure it's unintentional, but his right hand is making the benediction gesture that a priest makes during the final blessing of the mass. He's looking very well, very healthy - God bless 'im. I hope he's inherited his mum's longevity genes.
  24. The beagle looks bored out of his mind. His owner is a woman, no? Look at her little hands and her purse.
