Shalamar - A Night To Remember. Geoffrey did the Moonwalk years before Michael Jackson. And even he wasn't the first.

As I get older I think a lot about the hereafter - I go into a room and then wonder what I'm here after.

Inside every old person is a young person wondering what the hell happened.

Yes, it's Skunk in the video.

Elliot Randall was a serial non-joiner of bands and even though he was offered a place in Steely Dan he turned it down. I saw him as part of The Rutles a few years ago and Neil Innes allowed him to play the riff from Reeling in the Years during one of their songs. Fabulous.

We've had two different Nirvanas. Surely the same applies here?
