My father was an opera singer, which kinda put me off...

Some great new music around, but mostly I'm stuck in the 70s and 80s, everything from Deep Purple, Blue Oyster Cult, the Eagles, Bruce Springsteen to Abba and all the 80s pop. Hated the New Romantics stuff at the time, especially the fashions in induced, but time has obviously affected my ears, as some of it sounds good now. The fashions are still crap, though!

What a great song, takes me right back as Frampton Comes Alive was on constant play in the 6th year common room during my A levels.

Some nice Stuff there. Tommy particularly significant. My first date with my wife was to go and see the Premier at Lester Square theatre. Possibly the worst film I've ever seen but the Who still a favourite. Quadrophenia still the best concept album for me. Who's Next or Live at Leeds best straight Album.

Tooks my eyes off the Music Scene when the kids came along but as that coincided with the punk scene it was no great loss for me.

Put together a few sailing videos over the years, purely for my own or club consumption. The soundtracks, while avoiding the more obvious cheesy ones have captured the spirit (I hope).

They call me the breeze - JJ Cale
Keep on Truckin - Hot Tuna (some members of Jefferson Airplane)
Return of the Los Palmas 7 - Madness
Hesitation Blues - Hot Tuna (some members from Jefferson Airplane)
Boat Weirdos - Joe Walsh
Sail on Sailor - Jim Buffet version (OK, that ones a bit cheesy)
Plus a few others.

I was very involved in an amateur operatic society for several years in the late '70s and played guitar for a stage production of Tommy in 1978  Tongue one of the best experiences ever.

Madness, brilliant, seem to have got better with time.

Peter Frampton, always going to suffer from comparison with school/best friend David Bowie, ironically Bowie was to save Framptons career when he invited him to play lead guitar on his 'Glass spider tour' , only discovered Frampton in the weeks after Bowies death, work colleague sent me a link for 'Glass spider tour', searched for him on youtube and found loads of videos.

I was sat outside Cowes in a rescue boat looking after a load of kids in Bosuns. A huge gin palace motored by with loads of girls wearing not very much and someone who looked like Oliver Reed. It was Oliver. They were filming Tommy.
