Basically singer/songwriters Gallagher and Lyle with Tom McGuinness out of Manfred Mann, and Hughie Flint, whose career had peaked earlier when he sat one along from a Beano-reading Eric Clapton on the Blues Breakers album cover.<br />“Short People” is of course Randy Newman's typically wry attack on racial prejudice<br />Blogging is a bit of a chore now, but I do keep meaniing to add comments to your posts to say how much I enjoy the way you write ( and think!)Oldmortalityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11828967124865650752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990723463374960425.post-66536673679790006162012-03-05T10:00:31.391+00:002012-03-05T10:00:31.391+00:00http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAQ0pyKW4S4http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAQ0pyKW4S4Oldmortalityhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11828967124865650752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990723463374960425.post-88296568884939635792012-03-04T23:21:04.480+00:002012-03-04T23:21:04.480+00:00This blog’s a happy place to be.

OM, that’s a new song on me and it’s totally outrageous. Good job I’m 5ft 10.5in. But it reminds me of a saying my wife’s grandfather had. He was a nice bloke, went right through the First World War and despite being a sniper in no-man’s-land wouldn’t harm a flea under normal circumstances. But he used to say: “Never trust small men and cripples.” This is totally non-PC now, of course, but it used to make us smile. He used to laugh when he said it, so perhaps he was laughing at himself as well. And there’s nothing wrong with swans. Ask the Queen. God bless her.<br />Alen McFBecause They're Therehttp://becausetheyrethere.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990723463374960425.post-2916978293018172032012-03-04T20:54:16.332+00:002012-03-04T20:54:16.332+00:00http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0DttYjN5p8&fea...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G0DttYjN5p8&feature=youtu.beQDanThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07274667057351850895noreply@blogger.com
