OT: Dead hard rockers week

[Quigs]

The Hills might be alive with the sound of music but Kap-a-tan Von Trapp has ceased singing.

Always wondered if he was looking after the Sitter. I know she always had a smile on her dial.

 

[coolumsharkie]

He was a hard rocker!!

Fhharkkkk yeah. Introduced punk to the Austrian Alps post WW2.

Pharque you Quigs. Was just about to post this.

So long, farewell, auf weidersehn, goodnight.
Herr Von Trapp has up and gone and died

Ha, we have drifted from the OP

 

[Quigs]

I am pretty sure old Von Krapps style of music really pissed off the krauts.

I didn't know that Sylvain Sylvain from the New York Dolls died a couple of days ago, 69.
The Dolls were a great band who influenced many, many others, both through look and sound.

punk before punk

Sister Maria didn’t turn me on but I always wanted to go out with the captains fiancé.

His loss was my gain. Turn up at the Captains lakeside mansion in a 94 Hi Lux.

I suppose a date in Austria in those days was taking in a few rallies and burning books together.

Wheres Silverdale?

Mary Wilson, 76 of Supremes. I was in love with Diana Ross as a teenager!

 

[Quigs]

I read Mary's autobiography many, many years ago. It was a good read.

RIP Michael Gudinski, founder of Mushroom Records and big music industry heavy. Particularly did a lot for the local music and talent in the early to late 70s, Thinking Skyhooks, Ayres Rock, The Dingoes and prog rock and boogie bands like Madder Lake and Mackenzie Theory. I think our Kylie also started on the Mushroom label.

A bloke that rocked a few has gone down for the final count.

Marvelous Marvin Hagler has been counted out.

A brilliant boxer from a great time for ringmen.

Ring the bell, ring the bell.
