When you accuse someone of being a ''nazi fuck'' try and spell their name right.A bigger loss than that nazi fuck prince Phillip
oooooh i've tarnished his legacy with an extra letter L.When you accuse someone of being a ''nazi fuck'' try and spell their name right.
Interesting that you accuse someone who fought against Nazism, as part of the Greatest Generation, of being a Nazi.
You can't pick your family, but at least you pick your friends.oooooh i've tarnished his legacy with an extra letter L.
i'm sure he's in hell with his four nazi sisters and their SS husbands.
You're wasting your time. History is too complicated a subject for Rambo...When you accuse someone of being a ''nazi fuck'' try and spell their name right.

This 'greatest generation' thing is arrant nonsense. The gatekeepers of time would chortle as these bombastic claims made by peeps.When you accuse someone of being a ''nazi fuck'' try and spell their name right.

Uh oh, formby is going to get you over this oneThis 'greatest generation' thing is arrant nonsense. The gatekeepers of time would chortle as these bombastic claims made by peeps.
Until such time you can contextualise the Greatest Generation a bit better for us unenlightened peeps, I will continue to use the term, thank you very much.This 'greatest generation' thing is arrant nonsense. The gatekeepers of time would chortle as these bombastic claims made by peeps.
Where have I ever mentioned the term 'greatest generation'? Every generation thinks it's the greatest.Uh oh, formby is going to get you over this one
'peep(s)' = peopleExcuse my ignorance, but what is a "peep"?
Nothing at All (Air Supply) and Total Eclipse of the Heart (Bonnie Tyler) were written and produced by him and were #1 and #2 on the charts post-BOOH. Lots of other production and writing. So not just a one-trick pony.Jim Steinman, who pretty much peaked with the original song writing and producing of Bat Out of Hell, which I think, hasn't dated that well. But it did stay in the charts for a hell of a long time.
At the album level, as a sustained piece of work, that was his masterpiece.Nothing at All (Air Supply) and Total Eclipse of the Heart (Bonnie Tyler) were written and produced by him and were #1 and #2 on the charts post-BOOH. Lots of other production and writing. So not just a one-trick pony.
Nothing at All (Air Supply)
When was the last time you listened to any of it?Ive always had a soft spot for Jim Steinmans overwrought pop stuff.
I still listen to BOOH regularly and like fxh i still dig the overwroughtness of it all. I know that is not a real word.When was the last time you listened to any of it?
I recently put on Bat Out of Hell and it was so dated. I was quite surprised at how underwhelmed by it I was. Considering that was his masterpiece. But maybe, I should listen to it again...
The whole album is greatI still listen to BOOH regularly and like fxh i still dig the overwroughtness of it all. I know that is not a real word.
I equate it with Rocky Horror or any rock opera. A whole different beast.The whole album is great

if this isn't rock opera i don't know what is
even live on tv he's got the opera vibe going.
what ever happened to fat singers? everyone now has to be a fucking model.Exactly. Meatloaf was theatre
Good for you! I just don't get it anymore like Stax and Motown.I still listen to BOOH regularly and like fxh i still dig the overwroughtness of it all. I know that is not a real word.
It's the rock equivalent of Andrew Lloyd Webber.Its very OTT-ness is part of its charm...

This is the next-gen influenced by Richard O'Brian (Rocky Horror) to Steinman to Stephen Trask (Hedwig and the Angry Inch).
It is all pop rock broadway schlock. Christ, there is a lot of Barry Manilow in this stuff if you look close enough. The anthemic tunes. Ballads. Crescendo.
Add some guitar, more juvenile imagery and a fat guy and you have meatloaf. Put in a trans and you have Hedwig.
At its core it is Sinatra style popular music + old school rock and roll. Chuck Berry. Entertainers. Showmen. Costumes. Elton. The Killers, Zappa and the New York Dolls cum Buster Poindexter.

Grade 7.Lead singer of the Bay City Rollers, Les McKeown:
BREAKING: Bay City Rollers singer Les McKeown dies suddenly aged 65
Bay City Rollers singer Les McKeown, who helped the tartan-clad group secure worldwide success, has died at the age of 65, his family announced today.www.dailymail.co.uk
I vaguely remember the tartan fashions from the early to mid-1970s.

Valerie, the girl who sat next to me was a fanatic. She would always pull out Tiger Beat or one of those teen mags and regale me with what was going on in the lads' lives.I like that yellow tartan scarf as well. I remember that song too.
I was fortunate that my mother came from a very large family and she had kids very young and so there was plenty of aunties and uncles who use to babysit for us in the 70s and early 80s who were teenagers. I remember the music they were into, they would bring cassette tapes to play and the elder boys would bring those large party cans of lager you had to pierce with a can opener.
The Bay City Rollers were one, Suzi Quatro, David Bowie. I can remember my uncle having a conversation with my father before he and mother left for the evening about how David Bowie thought he was an alien and had a square eye. Another one I remember, and it must have been 1978/79, my uncle playing Tom Robinson's Winter of 79 and how it was about a fascist takeover of the UK if the dreaded Tories got in. One of my uncles in 1982 lent my sister his Heaven 17 Penthouse & Pavement. An album I've been listening to for nearly 40 years now and even my kids like some tracks and have a made a couple of their Spotify lists.

Badfinger and Cheap Trick still rool.There were so many great power pop outfits in the mid-seventies (Big Star, Badfinger, the Raspberries, Cheap Trick, etc), but BCR were crap.
they did decent coversWow thats a Vanda & Young song - never knew they covered it and with pretty much the exact same arrangement.
what ever happened to fat singers? everyone now has to be a fucking model.

No we mostly had fat r&b singers. Most rockers are skinny.True, but wasn’t this always the case? I’m really struggling to come up with fat pop/rock singers. Matthew Sweet got fat after achieving mild fame, like Jim Morrison. Who am I missing?
Big Star mega rool. Well, the first two albums. I wish they would stop releasing demos, outtakes and all the other crap that diluted the pure majesty of those first two records though.
fat rockers are all on the classic rock cruisesNo we mostly had fat r&b singers. Most rockers are skinny.
Well now, yes. But other than chubby checkers they were all blues or r&b guysfat rockers are all on the classic rock cruises
