watching that program on BBC 4 again about the history of rock and roll and remembering what a cock Burdon is.
It's a shame because I wanted to like him.

I know what you mean but the bloke deserves a medal or a gold watch or something for parlaying two years of being on hit singles that he didn't even write into 50 years of being interviewed about it.

His new accent is what's weird.
Did he say owt about people from Shields (the Sunderland supporting ones obviously)?

 

[Tuono]

Cannat remember. He was mainly slagging off Alan Price, said he ripped off the rest of the band.

Probably something to do with Alan Price taking sole writing credit for HOTRS.
