THE POWER OF THIS GUITAR


  




Eddie Cochran




Eddie Cochran died in a car crash on a country road in the early sixty’s . The legacy of his guitar lived on . His taxi he was in hit a lamp post outside Chippenham Wiltshire . One of the first police officers at the crash site . Was a young Dave Dee later off sixty’s chart topping band Dave Dee Dozy Beaky Mick and Titch. Cochran was rushed to a hospital in Bath where he later died . The young copper Dee took Cochran’s guitar back to to the police station . He practised on the guitar for 2 weeks until it was officially claimed back . This short time with Cochran’s guitar inspired the young copper to pack in the police force to pursue a career in music . 


Dave Dee

Early in the Tour a young fan who had blagged his way back stage . Helping Cochran’s band pack away their gear. He had proudly carried the same guitar to Cochran’s car and handed it to him . That fan carrying guitar was a young Marc Bolan. Obviously getting the same vibes from the powerful guitar . Sadly after huge success Bolans fate was to be the same as Cochran’s . He too was involved in a fatal car crash . The difference being he was in a private car it hit a tree not a lamp post . But in both cases they were not the drivers.of the cars.

The captain backed Luis Suarez


Translated from 






The Sky Captain Diego Lugano, backed Luis Suarez in the midst of the controversy sparked by not saluting the French Patrice Evra.
Speaking to Channel 10, Lugano said "we admire him because you have to have guts to do what he did." Lugano explained that the other members of the team called the Salta to support it.
"Luis has gone through a few months he did not deserve, it has nothing to do, all of us in football know it's a big circus" reflected Lugano.
On the other hand said that "we must keep in mind that England is a country historically colonial and racism is very delicate, but we know that has nothing to do with the relationship between Louis and the player of Manchester. It is a discussion of football much false and hypocritical moralist advantage "

UNIT 3 WHERE ARE THEY NOW


UNIT 3 WHERE ARE THEY NOW 

Its ten years ago that Unit 3 studios switched ownership to the capable hands of Massive Attack . The 10 years it traded as Unit 3 there was a average of 30 bands going through its doors a week . Ten years on I am going to have a look at where are they now . What success they have had and who they are they working with. It should make interesting reading. I will profile a band or artist as I get the up to date information on what they are doing now . Here is a list naming some of the bands that graced Unit 3.

Spritulized
Strangelove
Patrick Duff
Smith and Mighty
Portishead
Blue Aeroplanes
The Eff Word
Jimmy Johnston 
John Parish /P.J Harvey             
Andy Sheppard
Jesus +Mary Chain
Crashland
Halo
Grand Drive
K Passa / Kasabian
Monk + Canatella
Goldfrapp
Radon Daughters
John Langley
Gee baby I love you
John Dalton
Copter
Rodney Allan
Moksha
Fab 208
Sofa
Assembly
THE RADON DAUGHTERS 

Unit 3 was opened in 1991 it was previously a state of the art recording studio . The owner decided to call it a day and change it back to a industrial unit . Norm Wilson and Kim Brooke viewed the premises deciding that would be such a waste. Done a deal opening it as a rehearsal/recording studios . It had bands though its doors before the lease was sighed . With out a doubt it was a big influence in the success of the Bristol music push in 90s . Today it is still knocking music in hands of Bristol most famous sons Massive Attack.

THE FIRST WHERE ARE THEY NOW WHAT ARE THEY UP TO           END OF THE WEEK

PLEASE LEAVE COMMENTS E.MAILS INFO

Evra and Man u THINGS TO COME


Many media outlets have commented on . How Evra is such an intelligent man he can speak 4 languages . He is a new type of footballer . A footballer that  uses the so called politically correct changes to his!!! stroke teams""" advantage . To me he is an intelligent head worker . He understands the way that modern football works and the dark road it is heading down . Let me put a imaginary spin on it to explain my point.

In the year 2020 Huddersfield England . Frank Dobson had no Qualifications left school . But was destined to become England’s football Captain an incredible young prospect . But he failed his written test that enabled him to become a professional footballer . His young head was spinning all he wanted to do was play football . He lost all confer-dance and never made the grade a big loss to football fans every where.

The things that a player can do and can not do was 86 pages long and that’s nothing to do with football. It would fry any working class lad or girl wanting to become a Processional Footballer.

The players in ten years are of a low standards they can not express themselves with football skill. They are in fear of breaking the hundreds of politicly correct rules . That could be used against them or their team on or of the field in the media or in court. Players had to fork out for on pitch lawyers going out lawyers farting lawyers T.V lawyers and so on. The week before 3 players were given straight reds for speaking within a metre of a T.V microphone . The fans lost patience with the game football went into free fall . Attendances plummeted T.V ratings dived hundreds of football pundits ended on the scrap heap . Or brown nosed their way into the Golf world.

The likes of Evra have started to take football down this road . He is a footballer he should know its all about football if its not the game will die. Things are said on a one to one basis on a football pitch . If in some way he was upset by what was said. He should of answered it with his skill as a footballer. Not go off the pitch opening a can of worms were no one is going to benefit.

Suarez is a player I have followed long before he arrived at Liverpool. He only thinks about playing football and loves it . Now for allegedly saying something he did have no idea was offensive his career could be in tatters. Liverpool have protected him because he meant no malice what so ever. They can also seen the long term future of the game if opposing teams start to play this game.

If there is blame to be laid at Liverpool’s door is that . At training players should be guided when fooling around like (Johnston and Suarez) to advise “Hey lads it al-right to say them things to each other” “But some sad bastard might use that against you on the pitch” Ok we failed there. This would have been so strange to a player like Suarez all he wants to do is play football and entertain.

If Suarez really abused Evra, why would Evra shake his hand? If Suarez didn't, why would he shake Evra's hand? The truth was there YNWA
