Martin - young listener here and I just want to say I really love these videos. Very refreshingly unscripted and organic. Really interesting to hear your perspective on the industry now after all these years in music. Could listen to you talk for hours. In a future episode I'd love to hear you touching on your thoughts about "early" rockers - Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley, the like. I've always quite liked the stripped back and raw sounding underground garage rock of the 90s (The Headcoats, The Mummies, etc) but I've only recently been appreciating their roots in the early rock and blues of the 50s. Cheers
Hey thank you for your kind words and your contribution. And if you've subscribed , thank you for that too. Interesting point you make about the raw striped back records of the 50's/60's. I often think about how these days records are so perfectly in tune (thanks to autotune) and perfectly in time (thanks to digital quantisation). But music isn't a digital medium, it's analogue. And we humans don't beat in perfect time. Our heart beat, temperature and frame of mind are moving all the time and constantly changing. We human are analogue hahaha...So if I decide to do a Vlog about that, which I inevitably will, I'll be talking about the so called progress of the recording process. In fact...might even be the next one! haha
Hey, thank you. And if you've subscribed, thank you for that too...all about the community. And making me fabulously rich of course hahaha but really though. Thank you
beautiful song Mart - very moved......and loved the vlog .. agreed , very succinctly put !😅 Take it easy Golden "oldie"..nawwww Golden Wonder more like..Hugs!
@@rmdomainer9042 Hiya and thank you for joining the conversation. As for the car, it wasn't his, someone had left it with him and a friend of mine suggested it might be a Chevrolet Camero. It was an American sports muscle car and they apparently had fibre glass bodies . And once again, thanks for your input...and if you've subscribed, thanks for that too 👍
@@martinabrahamsmusic2141 Ah OK. I just saw an AC Frua mentioned in the book Moon The Loon by Dougal Butler. If you have not read it, you will definitely enjoy it.
You say you can't imagine TayTay chucking a TV out of a hotel window, but then, she's not a rock band. I can't imagine her 60s equivalents, Lulu and Cilla doing that either. But you're right about how everything is on film. It's a kind of constraint isn't it? Who'd have thought! She's not a classic rock star but I am very fond of some of her stuff, Carolina is fantastic.
They really must do a Keith Moon biopic whilst people with first hand accounts of his exploits are still around. We've already lost Moonie's old friend Jeff Beck who had a ton of hilarious stories about him (driving a Hovercraft to the local Pub etc) PS Love the song!
@@martinabrahamsmusic2141 Pete Townsend once said that it was a little worrying that Tara was proof there was someone else like Keith Moon running around!
@@candelise very true...goes to illustrate there aren't any rock stars anymore...I could've mentioned Kirk Hamnet, I guess...he doesn't throw TVs out of the window either 😂 Good point well made and thank you for your contribution and if you've subscribed, thank you for that too 😊👍

Cmon man. Taylor is too a rock star!
😅Not according to tiktok she's not...and tiktok is the bible!
Interesting. I believe Keith had an AC Frua car. That might have been the one. Rare vehicle.

Cilla? You're kidding right. She was the original fire extinguisher in the hotel lobby girl! 🤣😂

Is Tara still there? I remember reading that Kevin Godley from 10cc later lived there.
@@doccyclopz Thank you 😊
@@candelise It is. I recently took my kids to see it.

@candelise 😂
Awesome 💜
i like the song martin, good one
@@lenniemacdonald2598 cheers, Len. And you got a mention too...😊👍
Great story: Boomer Tish!
Taylor Swift is not a rock star, she is a pop star.
