I mentioned it before, but I highly recommend "My Darling Vivian" on Netflix. I had no idea about her, but she was very strong and much maligned.

Joe - full length documentary on Netflix, 'Otway The Movie'. He came from my neck of the woods and when I was a Younger Man, I saw him play the pubs round there a few times. One memorable occasion the promoter handed him a note to read out on stage to announce my car parked outside had been hit by a drunk driver.

Hi Joe and All,
Unfortunately, I am able to listen only now due to work. I anticipate hearing the archive. I noticed that you played Humble Pie in Single File. Uncannily, I was thinking of them this morning because I was thinking that given his seventies bent, the Pidge should play some Peter Frampton which of course led me to think of Humble Pie and then you played them, a post-holiday convergence.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:17am
Joe McG:

@Rick A: I had one of those yesterday. I watched a very bad Woody Allen movie called "A Rainy Day in New York" and then watched a 1966 episode of "What's My Line?" to get rid of the bad taste - and Woody was a panelist!

@Rick A , my Humble Pie remembrance of the 70’s is really long tracks. My friend’s older brother would put on Rockin the Fillmore which had a couple of entire side songs. Frampton owes me many hours of my life back.
