The best kind of riffing. Certainly better than Dumpy riffing.

There was indeed a Dumpy. Old biker blues band. I saw them when I was young and impressionable, but haven't heard of them in years. I can't be bothered to read the article. Or renew my acquaintance.

I hate those guys.

I'm just trying to help a brother out. They couldn't manage for themselves. No wonder this lad thinks nobody helps or cares.

Everyone passes the buck, or passes you back to where you've already been. When you blow the bugle for help, nobody ever comes.

I'm so sorto hear that. The way this Government have treated the Trans Community is fucking disgusting.

I'm just venting because someone I was trying to help has now OD'ed and is in ICU. Barely three weeks ago we were in A&E, in contact with the MH crisis team, in contact with the GP, desperate for help and we're told by everyone 'sorry we can help'.

Rare to see a belt in full ceremonial garb.

I and the nippers once crossed the road next to Andy Partridge. After I tried to explain who he was, but they were 4 and 6 at the time and didn't give a toss.

And Celtic Frost used samples too.

I think I came across these via Celtic Frost. Shared a producer I think - I'll look at this later.

None of Sly’s struggles in life will ever negate the fact that, by 1975, he’d already shown everyone else the way to move forward, both musically and culturally. We’re still catching up to it. We’re still building upon it. In many ways, we’re still falling SHORT of it.
