carryonsidney 4th Aug 2019 | | Vinyl AlbumH.W. Harding - [Unknown] | I have run the signature past some other folks and we think the "artiste" is "H.W. Harding"? A google search returns 1 usuable result of a chap who wrote a poetry book called The Pendulum. If it is the same person he was a treasurer of The Poetry Society (based in Dulwich) just after WW2.

All of Roy's tracks were recorded at Sun studios in 1956.

carryonsidney 8th Jan 2019 | | Live MusicThe Curtains @ The Air Balloon | ReviewThis was the archtypical 3 men and a dog pub gig, as I was in Thee Henchmen we got up and did our bit to the hard core regulars of the pub who it seemed were of the old hard rock fan variety, we got a few claps for our fuzzed out garage thing. The Curtains got up and despite being much better than us their brand of Mod music dropped stone dead....

carryonsidney 8th Jan 2019 | | Live MusicMarillion @ Poole Arts Centre | ReviewHighly entertaining gig by Fish & Co, the very odd thing I remember best after 35 years was the somewhat experimental support band which basically played a kind of early Acid house/ industrial dance music of sorts, this did not go down well with the mainly HM audience however it turned out to be the future!

carryonsidney 18th Oct 2018 | | Live MusicDeep Purple @ Wembley Arena | ReviewThis was probably the most boring gig I have ever been too, bar none. Enlivened slightly by 'Freebird' and Ian Gillan's odd change of outfit after the 1st number.
£28.50 + £3.50 booking fee + £5 car park should have asked for my money back!

carryonsidney 4th Oct 2018 | | BookTerry Pratchett - Witches Abroad | I'm a bit new to Book world are you suggesting my book should move to an entry of its own?
By the way I see on the web a much later proof of Men at Arms priced at nearly £400 and a 1st ed of this book signed by TP at a similar price.One PROOF here on EBAY states 100 copies only. here

carryonsidney 3rd Oct 2018 | | BookTerry Pratchett - Witches Abroad | I have put the HB cover here as I feel the uncorrected proof: advance reading copy probably only exists in a handful of copies and no scans are forthcoming?
