I just kinda figured out that it isn’t quite as convenient to keep your records on the wall if you’re going to actually be playing them.
But my walls would look so bare without those happy Beatlefaces! (except for Yesterday … and Today, in which they look like rather unhappy dead fish)
Interesting storage technique, @Beatlebug ! I’d just make sure that the sun doesn’t really shine directly on ’em and it isn’t to warm in the room/area you’re hanging them in, or they might end up warping, and then they wouldn’t be so good for playing anymore! 
And, if you’re concerned about the album covers as well, leaving them in the sun for a while over time could cause ’em to fade. 
I keep mine in a cool closet (but not too cold, that’s not too good for them either), but if ye like to store yer big music-y circles on yer walls, so be it! 
Oh, and to keep on-topic (a little 
), I learnt today how Silly Girl likes to store her records.

Well, I originally got them to look at mostly, before I had a turntable. My room’s on the north side so there’s no direct sunlight and it’s not very warm. But thanks for the info, duly noted!

Offline Grilling in the UK is often called broiling in the US. Grilling in the UK is usually under the heat whereas in the US its over the heat.
Never heard of broiler in my life, looks like someone incorrectly spelt boiler.

Chad & Jeremy appeared as themselves in an episode of Batman. I didn’t learn this today. I’m just saying it.

I am crap at reading music, so it would be just as difficult as learning it by ear (I choose to exercise my amazing ear skills 
instead of my sucky sheet-reading skills 
). Also I’d have to find a proper copy of the sheet music, probably online, and I don’t have a functioning printer so I couldn’t print it, and it would be more botheration than I’m willing to go through. 
Besides, learning it by ear is infinitely more satisfying.
I’ve gotten up to the one-minute mark, before the singing comes in; after this I may need some assistance…

Oh, pooh. 
I like Clare Torry’s contribution to the song, thank ye very much 
(also, I would call it the foreground, not the background).
Though if you’re so very fond of it, I suggest you try to get through this version

Makes you appreciate the original.

Offline “Bumps” Blackwell usually used a session pianist on Little Richard’s classic Speciality sessions in the 50s because he didn’t rate Richard as a piano player. We think of Richard as the classic Rock ‘N’ Roll pianist alongside Jerry Lee, and yet on many of his greatest hits he’s not allowed anywhere near the piano in the studio! WTF!!!!

I knew Clare a little back in the early/mid-90s. Her son was lead guitarist in a friend’s band. Amazing woman. Have watched her do the Great Gig vocal as a party piece. One helluva fecking voice.

Here’s the album Clare’s son, Tebo, recorded with my friend Mo’s band. Another name drop is that it was produced by Pavement’s Stephen Malkmus. Him and Mo got kicked out of The Ship in Croydon for an afternoon Abba singalong. It was nothing to do with me. I was standing nowhere near the toilets bawling out Fernando in an attempt to drown out their Chiquitita. Honest, gov’nor!

Yeah. Waldo sounds a stupid name to me whereas a wally is a stupid person.
Nena have never performed ‘Ninety-Nine Red Balloons’, the English language version of ’99 Luftballons’, live.
Despite having given in excess of 500 concerts over a period of more than 30 years, Nena has never sung “99 Red Balloons” live, even at her rare concerts in England, always performing the German version instead.
