We stayed in a pub in Dumfries & Galloway many years ago. They did lock ins. Our room was over the bar. They only had Queen on the juke box it seemed and I can recognise ANY Queen song just from the bass :-( John Reply to this message | Report message

>> Why do most British singers sing with fake American accidents? That has always puzzled me too Chris. I've not yet heard a convincing reason for it either. However, I suppose some songs wouldn't really cut it in broad brummie or something... Reply to this message | Report message

For some reason I'm now trying to sing Elvis Presley songs in a randomly chosen South Yorkshire accent by way of an experiment. My wife seems puzzled by this but strangely unconcerned. Reply to this message | Report message

Dave Edmunds broke the mould. He is the second greatest Guitarist in the world. Saw him live with Albert Lee two years ago who happens to be the world's greatest Guitarist. Reply to this message | Report message
