Thanks for all of your hard work BV, I've been on here (I've had two user names) since 2004. I met you briefly at the O2 in 2007, you were a gent. Appreciate the 'labour of love' for keeping this site going for so long!

I agree with a lot on here. HD has focus and urgency that has been missing for some time. It shows that they are still capable of greatness - just look at the reaction to the album (number 1 in 15 or so countries!). HD is a mix of what is (and has been) great about The Stones... great riffs by Keith, Ronnie nails every solo and Mick is outstanding (he sounds like he is really invested in the s

What amazes me is that at least half the album could be released as singles. When could we last say that?!

Only halfway through but, to me, it's excellent, Whole Wide World is my favourite so far.

I like it, the second half sounds like it could come from Tattoo You which is no bad thing. Kind of retro but good.

VL for me, Wembley stadium. Queued for hours and ran to the front! Still think that Not Fade Away was unusual (but great) as an opener.

Found this, from KingBeeBuzz Early evening on 13th March 1965. I walk into a theatre in Rugby, England and sit in the stalls about 25 rows from the front of the stage. It is my first live "pop" concert. The show is in two halves Sounds Incorporated play instrumentals and are boring. The Hollies come on. They've had some chart hits and are good. Many girls around me scream a

These are the first 12 items on the list, can't seem to copy the photos though. The name Rollin’ Stone was the first Muddy Waters single for Chess Records in 1950. Mixing acoustic Delta blues with urban Chicago electricity, it captured the imagination of pale young English boys an ocean away.

You know you've made it when The Barmy Army (dedicated England cricket fans) chant 'We wish you were English'. A cricket genius who did a lot for under privileged children, would also ensure that he signed autographs for everyone who waited for him. He gave a lot of his time. Very sad.
