Nice question, ask another.

What me again, well Ok?
What inspired the Curved Air name & what connects Curved Air & the Police?

Can I chuck you another couple more before I go into the workshop?
Accrington was the home town of which rock musician & a classical composer?
Who's the beret wearing musician who sang about "the mistess of his heart", an '65 MG with overdrive?
Right I'm off, rear bumper off this morning.

Green Onions & our common denominator?

An album called 'A rainbow in curved air,'forget who by. Stewart Copeland, Police drummist.

I liked Curved Air as a young man, summat to do with Sonja Kristina being proper fit.

I know Jon Anderson off of Yes was from Accrington, dunno the composer and won't google it.

MGB GT was from one of my personal heroes, Richard Thompson. I have his complete anthology.
Liked his vehicles: another notable song was Vincent Black Shadow.

Happy bumpering!

You're good you two, the composer is Harrison Birtwistle. I did the sound for a local bands in my youth & we often supported big names when they came north, Curved Air being one & Sonia Kristina was in a class of her own. I became quite good at squeezing past her in the dressing room for obvious reasons.

Ta, but I must take the credit. Sue is amazed that I can recall obscure music facts but forget our wedding anniversary.... Fairly regularly. 40 years is a long time to be married to a ginger, oops strawberry blonde, tbh.

Next q: in a recent survey, how many people wanted to punch Bono really hard in the face. Repeatedly.

Or....
Which 20th Century Schizoid Man associated with a man, now sadly deceased, that stuck daggers into a Hammond?

Not the TG one, but come to think of it.....

I had her poster pinned on my wall. Sounds like you had her pinned AGAINST the wall.
Gotta be careful with that nowadays: ask DLT. The Hairy Tw@tflake. Another candidate for repeated violence. Me first! Are knuckledusters still legal?

Fond dream: Johnny- Land news wish: Simon Bates, Kid Jenson (called that for a reason I'd reckon! And not for his youthful looks...) and Noel Edmonds (tidy-bearded eternal life annoyance, certified absolute cnut ) being led out to a police van, handcuffed together and being pelted with faeces to answer 'charges'......

Just my thoughts, BBC lawyers feel free to try sue me. Good luck with that. Oops, gone off-thread again.....

Greg Lake was a member of King Crimson & the dead organist was Keith Emerson of Emerson Lake & Palmer. Emerson used the knives to lock down the keys whilst shaking seven shades of s*it out of the organ spring line. Happy days.

What connects the girlfriend of an upside down Strat' to a Steam Band?
