The legend's widow nets a reported £500,000
Fri 21 Jan, 2011
I was suprised to see Hunter Davies involved...but it says Davies HAS the letters, Yoko's sold them, so who knows? It may be out of his hands. Davies has written some great stuff on The Beatles and unlike a lot of them he actually was friends with the band. Problem is no one GOOD is looking after his legacy. I got Julian's book on John memorabilia and it's fantastic, someone like him should have a say in what's going out. Case in point that fucking hurrendous car advert that had Lennon in it (that came and went, thankfully)...what monkeys are behind DUBBING John? Lennon was on the top of his game in 1971, I've seen Gimme Some Truth, got his albums, seen Madison Square Garden '72...the guy was a force to behold. Enough people know and have his work but I think the people in charge of his estate won't accept it...they've gotta have the youth vote. I'm 23 years old and I can only watch and listen to Lennon in hindsight. Any 17 year old worth his salt should know who The Beatles are but that clearly isn't enough. Rant over!!!

Singer had an operation in 2009
Thu 13 Jan, 2011
This is a guy who was at one point one of the greatest rock 'n' roll singers in the world...his voice has taken a bit of wear and tear, but based on what he's sung on, and how he's done it, if he never sang again he'd have his place in history. I mean...that scream in 'Won't Get Fooled Again'? Come on, that is insane. Daltrey, early Zeppelin Robert Plant, Steve Marriott, Steve Winwood, Eric Burdon...we should be proud of the lads.

Roger Daltrey reveals Pete Townshend is writing a follow-up to 2006's 'Endless Wire'
Fri 01 Oct, 2010
Roger is bang on here...I think the fans would enjoy a bit more variety. I was watching their gig at the Royal Albert Hall from 2000 and I thought it was a shame they didn't mix it up like that on a more permanent basis. With or without Moon/Entwistle, the tunes stand for themselves. PS. Roger/Pete...do 'Who's Next' in full!

'Why not go down the pub' instead, says the Modfather
Sat 24 Apr, 2010
Haha love it. YES YES YES! People getting touchy about Facebook it's wonderful. Stuck in 1995? I'd fucking love to be mate better than the fucking avalanche of shite music/tv we've got now. The majority don't like anyone who doesn't adhere to the 'must keep upto date with technology' rubbish, but it isn't for all mate. I'm 22 and I don't like having a mobile phone...it's a drag. I come on NME.com to read up about music. That's the sum total of my internet use. Go on Paul...say what you want.

Absolutely superb singer. At least we hear him on a daily basis though...(Neon Rainbow...I forget what the advert is for). The first Box Tops album is one of my favourites. RIP

TV ad features former Beatle 'to keep him in public consciousness', according to son
Wed 03 Mar, 2010
It is very insulting I've got to agree...smacks of desperation. Not enough for John Lennon to be in one of the world's biggest (and greatest) bands...to have forged a successful solo career, to be an outspoken voice for various causes and world peace? The interview in question is from Lennon and McCartney's promotional tour of New York, to promote Apple. As far as I can remember Lennon's on superb form...just bigging up their plans for a new record label by all accounts. So why not use something Lennon himself actually said? There's loads of soundbites, quotes, interviews where John has said something meaningful and profound. It's such a bad welding job on the audio/visual it's unbelievable. Forrest fucking Gump did better than that. If anything, the people running his estate (as a rule I never slag Yoko because it's pointless...things can't be changed) clearly don't understand who he was. The worlds spinning in his grave come to mind. I think they've gone for the pensioners though...those old enough to remember Lennon and all the fire and intensity he had in the 60's and 70's. But there's been a few generations in between who genuinely believe his music and lyrics STOOD for something a whole lot better than this. Any Beatle/Lennon fan will be and rightfully should be embarrassed by this advert. Fair play to Sean for not letting it pass by without comment but his response was very weak. Keeping him in the public consciousness? There's bands STUDYING every move he made...every naunce in his voice, what he wore in 1965...complete rubbish (and an insult) to suggest people forget about great music and talent. Anyway I think I've vented my spleen enough here. Shit car too.

They've also covered two Noel Gallagher classics
Fri 13 Mar, 2009
They deserve it...after ignoring their first album I woke up to them and really enjoy their 2nd album...their sound is a lot fresher than the likes of The Enemy and Twisted Wheel, laddish shouty rock. The View are in it for the melodies and shits and giggles! Besides which, as much as I love Oasis...Liam's voice ain't happening lately...so they'd do well to get shed loads of support to compensate. Kasabian are alright...The Enemy are OK...but The View are boss!

CPR fails to revive 29 year-old man
Tue 27 Jan, 2009
Corey Taylor, that cunt was on MTV2's Review Of 2008 and he reminded me of your average bully boy cock head American 'jock' (as they cheesily put it). Had absolutely no good things to say about anything, the rest were cringing at his rants. I was flicking him the V throughout as I watched, the wanker. He then went on about how he wished Chris Martin was dead before admitting he liked Clocks. What a tool. Seriously, why have him on? He gave me the creeps just watching him. It's blatantly obvious that if he's in a band like Slipknot he's been reared on god awful music himself as a kid. Good choice MTV2, really well rounded opinions.

The star makes announcement about Berlin and Coachella rumours
Wed 28 Jan, 2009
Who gives a flying fig about Bowie having a Twitter account? All I care about is Bowie finding Mark Ronson's son (if he has one), giving him a guitar and letting rip with a new version of the Spiders From Mars. Get that geezer with the ridiculous sideburns and the drummer and we're away, playing to packed houses and yelping "John I'm Only Dancing!" Come on Bowie, from 1969-74 you rocked hard, your live band was one of the greatest in the world and you pissed it away to go 'soul'. Get back to what made you a star in the first place.

Noel says he's not that great and Paul Weller agrees
Tue 27 Jan, 2009
ed2005, couldn't agree with you more. It's how you use what you've got. Take Neil Young, not a great lead guitarist but he's basically blagged his way through Buffalo Springfield and his solo career as a lead guitarist. It was more noticeable with the old line-up that Noel wasn't a great lead player, as Bonehead was just your average rhythm player. But with Gem the quality of guitar playing in Oasis is up (Gem is the prominent lead guitarist in Oasis now I believe). I'd rather listen to a one or two note bluesy solo that had some feeling in it than some guitar wankery by the likes of Metallica etc. Show off bollocks. And you're all right about Lennon too, used the guitar as a songwriting machine, nothing else. Technically Macca was probably a better guitarist. Does it matter? I doubt it. Weller can't talk either, Steve Cradock is the man in his band, a great all rounder and superb lead guitarist. The only solo I can think of by Weller that stands out is Start!

Band members announce they are hitting the studio soon
Wed 12 Nov, 2008
I'd welcome it but I'm sceptical on how Stewart will cope. He was a fine rock singer back in the day (check out The Jeff Beck Group too)...but it'll be nice to see Ronnie Wood take up the sole guitarist role...and always a pleasure to hear Ian McLagan and Kenney Jones. But what strikes me is that what made the Faces great was their boozy antics. Aren't they all tee-total these days?

Last surviving Jimi Hendrix Experience member dies in Portland
Thu 13 Nov, 2008
May I just say that Mitch Mitchell is/was/forever will be a DEVASTATING drummer who blows my mind everytime a Hendrix record comes on the radio, or on my stereo. The man was an influence on John Bonham and Roger Taylor and I'm sure millions more drummers. For those unfamiliar check out Crosstown Traffic for the funk or Manic Depression for the rock. Sad that the Experience are no longer of this earth. RIP Mitch Mitchell.
