MUSIC THREAD TO CONNECT & COMFORT ON THIS JOURNEY

I think Mr Halofan often just gets the vinyl out to look at the artwork. Some really are a thing of beauty. Impressed you have seen Santans Jane. Santana was a must for my brother, always on the record player

Oh my days I am truly envious Leo, that must have been awsome

Mr Halofan, big beatles fan as well. I agree Tina Turner was a powerhouse with a tune. Her story is really emotional, how she suffered. You are so right, she was some woman

Mr Halofan wonders did you roadie in 1990 at Alexander palace, we were there and didnt realise it would be the last gig that hugh cornwell would play

Angela, sadly no. They used to drink in my local in Hampstead, the Cruel Sea. My involvement finished in the 80s.

Hello Angela, Does Mr Halofan remember King Crimson- In the court of the Crimson King? Garviv

I remember it though I haven’t heard it for some years.That is an unmistakeable cover.

I used to see Hugh in the pub when I lived in Bath.I never got chatting though just said hello.

I do dance in the kitchen sometimes so play them then.I used to go to rock night when I lived in Hull and that was good fun and lots of dancing.This thread is popular already and it’s great to hear all these stories.Jane xx

I have a top tenuous connection with King Crimson. Around the time of the Falklands war I was living in a new age monastery in Kentish Town. The guru figure there was artist Tammo De Jongh, who designed another album cover for Crimson called “In the wake of Poseidon”. Apparently Crimson were interested in cosmology as was De Jongh. Top tenuous I know. Leo
