 | Jock_Girl A girl who looks good in vinyl Member since Dec 2012 1544 Points Moderator | Some of these selections, it might be said, are because we are a bunch of old farts. But, hell, I'm only in my late 20s and I can't stand most of what's out there today. I guess I'm weird -- wait -- I KNOW I'm weird. Amy |

 | getalife So many questions, so few answers Member since Nov 2010 878 Points Moderator | The 60/70s you had the likes of top of the pops, ready steady go, old grey whistle test among others that did a wide range of acts, from ken Dodd to the Sex Pistols all got some recognition and odd hits, these days it’s about looks, Britain Got Talent is about as near to a 60s talent show, most of the acts would not get past the front door of a record company. As for Old Farts, I may be in my late 60s but have a mind of a 16 year old. Edited by Getalife on 7th Feb 2020, 6:22 PM |

As for Old Farts, I may be in my late 60s but have a mind of a 16 year old. Yeah, I'm in my fifties and I had almost all of my Ten before I hit 21.... |

 | kab2112 SUBS ● Wales, where men are men and sheep are nervous Member since Jan 2011 15472 Points Moderator | As for old farts - must be as my wife tells me I am and she never lies (so she says) Well I've just put Metallica's black album in the CD player so I will get my pipe, slippers and cup of cocoa, relax to some soothing music in my favourite armchair. |

| kab2112 SUBS ● Wales, where men are men and sheep are nervous Member since Jan 2011 15472 Points Moderator | Hey Norm - both bikes are wrapped up for the winter. I could always pump up the volume and open the windows so the neighbours could enjoy Metallica as well. - perhaps not as i could end up with a slap from my wife. |

As for Old Farts, I may be in my late 60s but have a mind of a 16 year old. I'm with you Getalife. I'm 65 but I just have to put on a favourite album and I'm instantly that 17 year old scouring the record shop for new releases on Vertigo and running round the second hand shops looking for Immediate and Regal Zonophone albums. The only time I turn into an old fart (literally) is after a dose of home made Lentil Soup  |

| TheJudge In-house specialist in drive-by moddings. Member since Dec 2012 3716 Points Moderator | Looking at mine (I'm 57) and the breakdown is: 60s-1 70s-3 80s-3 90s-1 00s-0 10s-2 Although 2 of the 80s ones come from 1980 itself, so they might have been conceived/recorded in '79). |

| kab2112 SUBS ● Wales, where men are men and sheep are nervous Member since Jan 2011 15472 Points Moderator | These days pregnant women are strongly advised not to smoke or drink alcohol during pregnancy as it is likely to affect the child’s health and even shorten it’s life expectancy. When this old fart was born nearly everyone smoked everywhere including in hospital beds where doctors doing their rounds also smoked bedside. Pregnant women who were partial to a drop or two carried on as normal. The problem now is that us old farts are living too long when if we applied the thinking of today, we should all be long gone or on our death beds. We are both non smokers here who enjoy a social drink with friends and family. |

 | The_Vinyl_Junkie SUBS My body is on the diminishing streak. Member since Dec 2011 8095 Points Moderator | Now I'm getting a bit worried by the "old farts" only being in the late 50's through to 60's era. At 78 (minus a few weeks) am I becoming quite "valuable" as being an "antique fart"? Edited by The_Vinyl_Junkie on 9th Feb 2020, 12:14 PM |

| kab2112 SUBS ● Wales, where men are men and sheep are nervous Member since Jan 2011 15472 Points Moderator | I just had a look at this thread from February 2020. Really ineresting - even the second time around. I had a look at my entries including those bubbling under and I could only think of 3 or 4 others that could sneak in. Four of us ageing bikers meet in Wetherspoons every Friday lunchtime for a barmeal (soft drinks for the drivers who don't live in town ) This subject (Favourite Albums & Acts, Shows seen etc) came up last week. No mention of stormzy or Taylor Swift. |
