Right. I've put the link here on this post, but haven't dared watched it, to check it's the right video-clip. I just can't.

Please, Keith - tell me you don't find this a pleasure to watch.

That version Iggy did of 'We Have All The Time In The World' for David Arnold's 'Shaken...' album was pretty bloody embarrassing, wasn't it?

However, I absolutely adore his duet with Cindy Wilson on 'Candy'. What a song!!!



Regarding the Drood's second psychedelic phase, I'm cool with that. Probably as I'm sort of in mine - and therefore am immune to any ridicule I might also be attracting.

Kate Pierson. I know an interesting story about her which I probably shouldn't go spouting here.

You're right that they're covers of course. Perhaps it's a case of double standards but for me there's a big difference between the raunchy innuendo of the bluesmen and the sexed-up posturing of the rockers!

LOL ! Know what you mean, Lay Down Stay Down off Burn is another sordid little ditty that gets my back up.

I'm not so sure about RJD and the pixie poems, mind. ;-)

Alot of 'em saw themselves as 'Blues men', the 'real deal,' when if fact, they were not.
When the likes of Ma Rainey (a lady) sang 'Don't fish in my sea', there was a certain inebriated, free, natural rough bawdiness to it.
Alot of the 70s rockers did it with a couple of teen groupies waiting in the wings (of their jumbo jets as well as the stage hehe). Up to them, but it REEKED of it big time!
