It was. 70 some atmosphere. Around I wake a few people. Here So not everybody really. Need to go to anywhere past the 1st one and you're on there bunch of fives don't bring me down yellow now oh dispenses book really can you spare a dime and what in the in 1967 years remember that did it go quickly. And. Well within the last 20 years. We had to. Ask people who their favorite song was the favorite track you know I think around you know a lion organized when you sent in your favor and you know I want to I want to shade of pale you know what surprised me but I was popular that was my Yeah yeah but you know didn't go back a bit now but it did when I watched it was. By Pro Hart and that's Yes and I mention it because it's the 1st one the sponsors talking about here he says the essence of 9067 is captured in a wide Shade of Pale and the truth is not playing to saying as the song I says. Keith Reed. I'm gonna be Ok I've not discussed the images in their song now which sounds cryptic and you. Don't know what that is on the mound No no the sit in there as you say in the weighted. Rest of the writing for the I think it makes your listener. There there are musical references of also to bark because it sounds a bit like add on a g. String not a very beginning yeah and I'm going to play it now 967 is the 8 I take it right back with there was a shade of pale. News Group so we know the wiser tonight how it's doing just 2 words to us and one of the Rice's him self Spencer says he says I write the words on it's up to the listeners to appreciate them and whatever level they want and I want you to be able to set something like that of me have translated as many something else. Lucy in the sky without exactly exactly how he said it was l.s.d. And think Yeah you know you can you can make any interpretation you can that's right that's right Spencer's gas is the lyrics refer to someone chatting up again as a party and as much as mind wanders and different images coming to us has Ok that's that one the bending groove the Moody Blues Yeah I've been going as a rhythm blues band and top the u.k. Charts in 165 with a cover version of Passy banks go now Ok so I'm going to play that because that was I got you on again as it rises and we'll talk about where the Moody Blues and their $9067.00 is the a which all about. We The Moody Blues and their lead singer Danny lane left and when Justin Haywood and John Lodge joined the band style shifted significantly expenses as air they recorded an ambitious perhaps pretentious album with the London Festival Orchestra Days of Future Past and that included Justin Haywood celebrated song Nights In White Satin and that's what I'm going to play next to and has 5 charms after you have separate occasions simply won't know what you know about the the copyright obvious it Lonnie Donegan Didn't of all places here in Iraq and he met the matter of a party and he got the copyright before it was a you're aware of light in white satin but what was the big Tom Jones hit that lonely out there. I'm comin home. A little yeah I'll Never Fall In Love Yeah that's right yeah yeah. Yeah because it's been hit 5 times so yes the songwriting royalties are 5 times the measure more to do with some of the adverts on the telly as well as being say certain 20 or 30 years old and people will you know. Put money very shrewd Oh yes he also has a posse it's own you know the fella. A comedian and they sort of work like a joke What's his name you know where. To go to remember him you know Ok when you mention his name. Oh yeah yeah remember. The results were like a little you know yeah yeah. Yeah he told him to do that you know because it was so funny and that's what he did yeah. Yeah I'm sure it was showbiz. Anyway I can tell you on the. One of them with. A laugh that's one of the play now groups I've seen alive yeah go to. Me. With. Ok broke some leverage and of Nights In White Satin Ok one more in this segment and it's Pete Seeger and there it Pete Seeger it commented on the Vietnam Vietnam War and a song called waist deep in the Big Muddy. I mean he said I guess I saw some photographs of the American soldiers slogging through the rivers and swamps down there in Vietnam and I thought of the wind waist deep in the Big Muddy the big fool says to push on and on and so you know songs to know that was a good line but it's not me 2 or 3 weeks so I finally got the song written I'm not such a quick songwriter how I envy Bob Dylan and Woody Guthrie and fellows they can touch of songs you know go to. And you can as well counties you know oh. I wish you had. Abilities Yeah because that's going to be for that's what they are the poet something mysterious a song sun rises out of the great lyrics you know long races of the most and they you know it's there's no doubt about that I mean we were just saying before about. Bob Dylan getting the Nobel Prize but yeah Hank Williams People don't you listen to I can't help it and even without the music it's one wonderful poem poetry the whole we call Michael Stardust and I've been on numerous numerous records they are the lyrics Yeah well the little what do it for me actually you know music's like music obviously but at the same time sometimes you hear Leduc see you go wow that's fantastic of a hobby that you know they're. Ok so teaching is going to sing it for you. It was back in 1948 doodles a member of the good luck to me. We were on maneuvers in Louisiana one night by the light of the moon.

We get out of this pose a karaoke upstairs. And that was very popular It took him most of yeah yeah yeah that was a good way to finish and then I tell you there you go yes sleep in the following day that's right I'll tell you something well it might be hopefully it will be interesting to the of interest to you and your listeners Yeah. Monaco or Monte Carlo I was surprised how small it was hard because they say well this is a power system where Prince Rainier and Grace Kelly lived across and that's where they were money you just across the road you know yeah I'm lookin you think will come for me to central station and. We went in the casino Monte Carlo is poor and down so we had no choice you better get in a you know but the situ in the daytime right. But it was of interest but at the same time that people go there I mean Ringo Starr lives a spokeswoman told me that she stays above the. Jess and Celine Dion now they must only lived there for tax purposes no was the reason because that message is that official Jess Yeah and Phillips you know somebody else you know who are about to 1000 Miles Away Yeah at the same time that did surprise me but. Well we're seeing Don't get me wrong I was surprised just to just oh this is a this is a bit of yeah you know well I found out I went to see Graceland you know well you know this yeah we have went there and it's that's not very big it's all you know I mean it's not a big front like one of the ones that haven't been there but the deep south on the telcos why they're here in Manchester and you know put it it's not very big. On their. Most It's on a motorway you know you can't just cross the road in fact the way you get your ticket is on the other side of the road and they've got these little trucks he got here and they take it across safely you know I says Oh yeah. Well that's something like I mean if it was ever to get there it's a must remember what Bill you mentioned you know because you do get surprised sometimes they were didn't expect that you know they're both. Monaco was a surprise to me but put it this way Bill you've got to be you've got to be vs you billionaire to live there if I was a bill. The last place I. Think about this place is not for this should be a fine thing. Ok I've got Julio Iglesias now yes together it sets up and then they're going to sing you when you tell me that you love me I think the Supremes on with This Is It Anyway. Julio Iglesias and Dolly Parton there and Julio where he's got the accent on the All your stuff and yeah did you did you have any trouble speaking the language here anywhere. On the still there back Solly. You know program I've been lurking there. Yes all spotty and all that yeah. Yeah. It's actually in you know honestly I think we're quite lazy spirit goes which was to expect everybody just language Yeah and you know that it's Ok to use a lot of people and we think we they we just expect them to oh yeah fall in line with those should oh yeah that's right he's right and I was impressed but someone who can speak another language oh yes you know linguists have some of them sometimes there's a point you know usually football or somebody say oh for yellow So that's speaking in a foreign language all of you know I think to me which is a stupid thing to say but I. Don't know who called who play for every play Man United No he speaks 6 languages Yeah well that's not 30 is it not and I was knocked off and I'll bet you can clock not speak speak about 4 or 5 languages Yeah because he's got to do that to direct to do is you know that's what impresses me yes talking and being funny accents are only yes in a foreign language well our journalists don't always help because they have some sort of a hot potato over western and they've got to answer it in English yeah and they cope with it quite well you know who say oh we're there well then I think yeah I think it helps if you're in the country that you know so I think I do I am very you know learn and I think it's a lovely way to lend a hand if you have got around the world and there. 12 months in each place yeah yeah it'd be wonderful here when it's right here we won't get that chance junk only you never know. So this said and then in the paper that my grandfather told me he saw the Titanic and from the beginning he warned all the people that the the ship would sink but nobody listened to him he was a brave man he did not give up he warned him again and again on several occasions until he kicked him out of the cinema. And I thought of Otto Now I'll tell you that a quick winner from a bill you got time for yeah I saw Ginger Rogers and Fred to stay they do with there was clippings of his films and Ginger Rogers was interviewed by Cliff Mitchell and the fetish there was interviewed by Michael Parkinson and the same question came up in the different interviews is how did you get on with you know where my with. Fetish Roger is so we got on great and then we will we read the blah blah blah you know the press that he didn't get on and the same question was asked about Fred Astaire drug use he said we got on great he said that this is it he said this out of Hollywood where they don't want to know that your old pals you know everybody gets on great but they want to know his teeth don't like each other how you do because that's a story. And it was very. Wonderful to him to specially fetish did build into into I'm very very modest because it shows some of these dance routines did you do that need to explain of it was you know pull it modestly don't you tell that was a tough or you just said but anyway I thought it was good the way you just pulled the veil back over Hollywood yeah that they want to story print what they like about your life yeah meet me Fred Astaire jokes are there one is it what's black and smells of ginger it was Fred Astaire's half. How do you do on was when people say it wasn't a great you know out a good dancer and then he say well she was as good as him and she said it backwards in high heels every kid she did back with.
