    There's been a couple down the years...

    Forget sometimes that George Benson is a jazz guitarist first and foremost, rather than the 80's cheese hits (Gimme The Night, etc.)

    What were we saying before about The Four Of Us having to perform one song over and over and over for the rest of their career?

    Ladies and gentlemen...The Knack!

    Did anyone see any of Danny Baker's shows during the week?

    I thought the 'panel of people talking seriously about rock' was a bit pompous, but I loved the clip shows where he played old videos/performances.

    Where did you see them?

    You'd be very lucky nowadays to see them play in a small club.

    Become his trademark, would look weird now if he was to stop wearing it...although not as weird as a 60+ guy wearing a school uniform!
