Miscellany

The inimitable John Otway reads an extract from his autobiography ;-)


Martin Jenner
A contemporary of Ollie's. Another lefty with a unique approach. Not entirely representative of his talents, but the best footage I can find at present - accompanying Barbara Dickson's song High on Fortune:


As banned by YouTube
This video of your webmeister's occasional band of hillbillies performing a well-known popular song, has been removed from YouTube by the copyright holders - really! Mind you, on musical grounds, they do have a point.

The Ploughmen


Moose on the Loose
Another of your webmeister's current musical projects.

PhoneTuner

It is a little-known fact that the UK ringtone [i.e the one you hear in your earpiece - NOT the one the phone makes] and engaged signal are pitched to G. This, of course, provides a cheap and widely accessible tuning device :-)

Thanks to Adam Croft for this invaluable tip


Tom's First Hit!
The very first recording by Thomas Edison. 1877

On a vaguely related note:

Alexander Graham Bell is credited with the following marvellous understatement:

"I do not think I am exaggerating the possibilities of this invention when I tell you that; it is my firm belief that, one day, there will be a telephone in every major town in America."


Carl Berry
The origin of the Rock & Roll?

Carl Hogan plays a convincing Chuck Berry intro to Louis Jordan's Ain't That Just Like a Woman - 1945 [yes, 1945!]
