I've been saving this video until i had time to fully enjoy it and since its a holiday weekend on my side of the pond I was able to watch it today. Paul was such a great guest to have because he has great stories and loves the music! I enjoyed listening to "Brand New Cadillac", because prior to this I had only known the Clash's sub-par version, which i had never realized was sub-par until today. Cheers!

What is it a British VC panel is able to do that the American VC finds so difficult to achieve? They don't talk over each other, they listen to each other, and they allow for silent pauses.

I like these guys. I agree, there is a panel called jazz bums. The group of 3 is fine, but they do a larger group that is nearly unlistenabled mainly due to one guest.

An all time great. Definitely one for the VC time capsule. How is it that I never heard of Madame Cyn before? The KZitem algorithm must be filtering out colorful anecdotes. For the next edition of the Vinyl Jukebox I'd like to recommend John's friend, Nadine, as it's time that a woman was on one of these. Women are allowed to go to pubs in England, right? At any rate, this was great. Great stories and great records. But if the police ask later I wasn't here and didn't hear anything. Allegedly. Cheers.

Hi John, Hedley and Paul. This was an excellent episode. Paul is a great raconteur. He could write a fascinating book on the denizens of London's underground music scene in the 70s and 80s. The lawyers might need to edit out quite a bit though! ... My version of Vince Taylor's 'Brand New Cadillac' on Chiswick is a treasured possession. That Parlophone original is a bit special.

Wendell Austin's LSD is very much a reworking of the song Cocaine Blues, which was recorded in 1947 by Ray Hogsed as a rather jaunty Western Swing tune. But it's probably best known from the version Johnny Cash performed at the Folsom Prison gig. Interestingly, Columbia didn't censor the song, unlike the recording of the song he made in 1960 on which they insisted on some rewrites and to change the song title to Transfusion Blues. So while you might understand the original, "I took a shot of cocaine and I shot my woman down", "I took a transfusion and I shot my woman down" is rather nonsensical.

I'd like to see everyone in the VC have some form of facial hair, it should be compulsory. John with an Amish beard. So i have that Gary Paxton but not listened to it yet. Paul, you add flavour where most VC channels probably me included just show records which can be rather dull. I did think you were rather restrained at times so am waiting for the blatant edited outtakes. I've got the Otis satisfaction on a reissue comp on which all the tracks are killer, cost me a fiver somewhere.

Yes, unfortunately you're right. I'm a fan of his solo albums, his first being a quirky gem. I believe the follow up, which was partially recorded, was a victim to the international oil shortage in 1973 and wasn't released until after his death in 2003. The two albums he recorded in Italy are worth a listen as well.

Cyn is like the forgotten member of The Cramps who got kicked out of the band before they became famous because Lux and Ivy thought he was just a bit too sleazy for that band. There’s another version of the Kent-Vicious incident that Vicious did it because Kent was beating up his girlfriend of the time. Who knows the truth of the lives of these unsavoury characters. Paul makes out Nick Kent to be a charming chap, but I think the truth is he was a pretty nasty bloke. Allan Jones wrote for Melody Maker, not NME, and was editor for what was probably MM’s golden period from the mid 80s to early 90s.

@spongerubbertowerIt was Nick Kent’s own girlfriend that he was allegedly beating up. I think it was another music hack I heard it from. They can be as catty about each other as they are about the music they review, so it may be rubbish, as I said before. I’ll forgive your other rudeness, since I know what a stressful experience it must be to live the multicultural life.
