A touch of in memoriam today. Just found out that we lost Denise Lasalle today. Just played the 2 45s I have from her.

Queen of the Malaco sound

Coincidentally as I read yours I was listening to a Philly-based contemporary, taken from us too soon (Brenda Payton)

Brenda And The Tabulations - 'One Girl too Late'

Lots of Brenda and the Tabulations songs got aired on the Northern scene back in the day. Not heard very often these days as a lot of places are going down the "new, rare and underplayed" route and consider the old "standards" to be thrashed to death and stale. Then you get others who put a smidgin of rare and underplayed in amongst the old uns. Just oldies is boring. Just new or rare or underplayed equally so. Some of those songs are rare and underplayed for a reason.....

Currently reminiscing along to:

Motorhead - 'Motorhead'. The last of classic line-up, guitarist 'Fast' Eddie Clark, died today, and I thank him and his pals for providing the only means a non-drinker like me had of getting a morning hangover. If you go to a gig in the future and think its loud, it isn't. Motorhead were loud, head-in-a-vice loud, so farewell Eddie and thanks for the tinnitus

[Romanis]

Loud is good. VERY LOUD IS BETTER!

It was November 79 (15th?) that Motorhead's Bomber tour rolled into town, and for the faithful who may troll this forum, what a night we had eh? Above all else I recall The Bomber itself, an early attempt at adding value to a show it was basically ten tons of scaffolding poles and scrap metal hung above the innocents in the crowd and looking like a wellington bomber chassis might have looked. How it didn't fall and kill us all I'll never know.

Edit, I just saw this on facebook and those who know Motorhead will understand why it bought a tear to my eye.
