Fair enough, but musical virtuosity was the opposite of what it was about. It was more "any fucker can do this, not just those cunts in Genesis'..

If you're complaining about the SP's musical ability you've sort of missed the point

So you're telling me there's not a valid comparison to be made but if you personally were to compare them you prefer the Beach Boys? The Beatles didn't sound like the Stones, the Kinks, the BB's or anyone else tbh because after the first 3 albums the next 4 or 5 sounded completely different to one another ... the ramping up from rubber soul > revolver > Sgt Pepper is said the be the greatest progression in popular music. I think during that time the BB's only released Pet Sounds. You're right it doesn't sound like any of the Beatles record from round then. Am certainly not an expert on them but I don't think they altered their style too much if at all during the rest of the 60s? Not sure like, happy to be corrected on that.. suffice to say BB's and Beatles were very complimentary about each others' work..they and the others were definitely musical rivals.., https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/brian-wilson-two-favourite-albums-the-beatles/&ved=2ahUKEwig4I2O7OuNAxWdQEEAHaLdIOEQFnoECCYQAQ&sqi=2&usg=AOvVaw1S2NoQE0hUJSOfLvJ7qYuB

I'd have Waddle in for Ginola tbh...he was here 5 years and actually achieved something in his time at the club, Ginola was here 2 years and spent half of that time in the huff because Keegan wouldn't let him go to Barca 😑

I seem to remember reading that Brian Wilson spent hours listening to Sgt Pepper because it had massively outsold Pet Sounds and he was trying to work out why. If I compare them (and SPLHCB is nowhere near my favourite Beatles album) I like Sgt Pepper a lot more; I like the sort of mixture of psychedelia & old time music hall it has. Pet Sounds figuratively and literally sounds like it comes from a different culture; I think I was an adult when I first listened to it but the Beatles were still fuckin everywhere through my childhood in spite of splitting up around the time I was born... BBs just leave me a bit cold...

Sat here frankly devastated that didn't come from your new boss

Brian Wilson being described as literally a genius by people with very good qualifications to be able to make that judgement..lots citing "God only knows" as the greatest song ever written....so it is just me then that doesn't really get Wilson or the Beach Boys? I hear good songs and nice harmonies but I also got that from the Brotherhood of Man RIP Brian, you had the same name as our coalman 🙂

Vernon Reid, guitarist in Living Color Really liked Sly from Sly and the family Stone who is fuckin DEED (again)

Trouble in LA

He might want to be no.1 somewhere but if there's something in this the champions league might swing it...24, last year of contact, knows the league and is Brazilian so you'd imagine settling in might be fairly easy...it all makes sense, he's at least as good as peak Wilson...

Ugh, that must be a horrible task. I was walking across road near the shop in our village that night and my old man pulled up in the car. He wound down the window and said "there's a plane come down on the petrol station at Lockerbie, must be an RAF jet".... A fairly sombre Christmas day & new year I seem to remember. Seemed wrong to celebrate as usual. There were dozens of "amateur souvenir hunters" who all got 6 months at Jedburgh Sheriff Court. Fuckin ghouls. Some kids me and my brother knew from being at Gala Tech were among them. We were all 18/19 and had not long since passed our tests and so were most of those wandering the hills all along the border. My old man made it perfectly clear what he'd do to us if we got caught up on any of that nonsense...

knew it was something to do with them

Taking Toonpacks long and inglorious history with the polis into consideration here, is that the woman who played Juliet Bravo?

Just to point out that the transfer window will be closed between 10-16 June for its annual holiday. Having a week in Benners with his brother "January window" and their Dad "March transfer deadline day so you cant buy 6 players after the FA Cup 5th round and end up basically buying the cup you cheating bastards"
