Never heard it before but jesus H christ hasn't it been covered.

When Johhny Cash does a cover of your song, you aint doing bad. not to mention all the others.

For those interested, Steve has aged a tad. And grown up a bit from the 80's.

And Vale the late great Jon English!

Saw him tour in 2006 at Twin Towns in Tweed Heads.
Just prior to playing Turn the Page, he quipped something like:
"okay... for us oldies this is a Bob Segar song, for you kids, it's a Metallica song.."
He did the song justice.
And Segar never actually made a studio recording of this track, did he?
It was always the live version that got played on radio?

The studio version of Turn The Page is on Seger's LP Back In '72. I'm happy to admit I've never heard it, only the live version. Yes, I had to look up the info.

I only know Jon English's version (a combo result of when I grew up and middle aged laziness) - another very under-rated musician IMHO. I've heard the Metallica version. For me, the less said on that version the better.

My brother is a mad vinyl collector.

He's gone Rolling Stones mad the last 12 months and has some amazing records. Heard some old Stones stuff I'd never heard before and the sound quality is pretty impressive too. He does have a top quality sound system.

I don't think there'll ever be a band as good as the Stones

Ian Dury and the Blockheads, "Blockheads" from New Boots and Panties.

Next, it's going to be "Hazard Project" from Soft Machine's Bundles.

That takes me back some years, Ian Drury that is.

Vale the Rhinestone Cowboy, as Glen Campell is finally free from his nightmare. 7 years ago he was diagnosed with alzheimers, a couple of years ago I saw a story about it, so sad. I quite like country music, there's times in life when a good 'jump of the Westgate bridge song' as my husband calls them, just fits perfectly! I often belt them out when I'm doing housework! My mums battle was two horrible years, a friends mum, who I'd known since I was twenty, such a vivacious fun woman, had an agonising 13, the last 5 bedridden, her memory long gone, and her ability to speak gone too. A fate worse than death, so cruel.

I will remember the booming chorus of his most famous song, as he rides up in full glittering cowboy attire, but he wrote a couple of songs about his fate, and this one was his final goodbye:

RIP Glen Campbell.


Warts and all, the boozing, the drugs, the many wives, - just thought I'd get in first! Cheers
