Another non music related link.
This is living on the edge hiking in the mountains of china.
Nope.nope and another few nope’s
(I very well know those helmet go pro cameras give a somewhat foreshortened portrayal of reality, but…)
Another, just for fun…
This was fun and RIP to Lemmy of Motorhead and RIP to Kelly Johnson of Girlschool (lead guitarist & Vocalist)
Indulge me on this one guys but this actual night was the last concert I attended with the late and wonderful Mrs M and we were in the front row. When Imelda moved stage right for the first take of the bridge we were in eye contact with her.
Robert Fripp & Torah & Some Bloke - Slave To The Rhythm
Close, oh so close to the magnificent original.
And apologies to Some Bloke, but I don’t recognise you.

Thanks mate.
Ricky was just such an incredible guitarist:
I think the other geezer is Simon Darlow songwriter and producer for Toyah - also coincidentally the co-writer of the song Slave to the Rhythm.
Normally they record their Sunday Lunch tapes live, but this is clearly mimed to a recording. Sometimes Toyah wears some ‘interesting’ outfits.
Brilliant stuff - and only 4 strings on Ricky’s guitar. Great keys by Kate as well.

Go Yoko!
Travelling between Islamabad and Skardu in the northern region of Pakistan, it is always preferable to fly, but quite often weather conditions preclude that option. Consequently, there have been four occasions when I have had the ‘joy’ of travelling (24 hours in each direction) on the Karakoram Highway, each time passing sections similar to that shown in the video. Usually the tyres on the vehicles have seen better days (now slicks). It can be quite scary to look over the edge to see the raging River Indus 500 feet below… and last year’s tour bus!
Heilung, a Norwegian, Danish, German trio.
Shamanic folk.
Ok said the German tattoo artist to the Danish producer I’ll do you some tattoos if you write some music for my poems. Oh and can your girlfriend sing them when they’re done. A phenomenon was born.
Roll on a couple of years and the gang decided that they wanted to play live, so they chose Castlefest in the Netherlands and gathered a Film crew and sound recordists
The result, Lifa, a live album and YouTube video
Heilung - Krigsgaldr
Currently on 32millions plays
Prompted by mention of the Birkin/Gainsbourg original on the vinyl thread…
This sort of cuts to the quick and pours out the emotion…
