Recommended Posts

Posted

Same answer that I've given before...

JOE WALKER - THIS IS MY LAST GOODBYE

Preceded by ....either "Jerusalem" or "I Vow To Thee My Country"

And followed by...."Nellie The Elephant" ('cos I'll have packed my trunk and said goodbye to the circus)

:hatsoff2: - Kev

Joe Walker too on my wristslasher top 20 cd...

Along with " lights out"....

I would also like decks there :yes: ..... Or at least a cd recording off original vinyl please.... In death we can still have standards :lol: :lol:

I love this thread each time it comes round. (Sorry been done many times before).

Answer as always, the best record ever recorded ...

What, I Saw The Light by Todd Rundgren?

More importantly who gets the record collection when we've gone? Needless to say I don't have any but Hubby has some amazing tracks. X

Ps Sorry to digress. I have also told Hubby that along with dancing on his ashes I'm going to take my all time favourite track (Gimme Some Lovin -The Deltones) out of his collection and with a silver/gold pen write KATRINA'S on the middle of it..... sn***** X

It will be predictable for me with 'Time will pass you by' Tobi Legend.

Away from Northern Soul I heard a story on Radio 4 when I guy arranged for the conveyer belt to stop on the way through to being burnt, everybody at the funeral gulped and then the 'Hamlet' tune played! total quality!!!

3 for me

Craig Douglas- Dont mind if I cry (Northern record)

Todd Rundgren - Fade away (Or the Mummers version will do fine :

)

It Bites - Old man & the angel ( Heard them play it live last week - Superb)

Posted

Got to say, I've always had this vision.

End of ceremony, wooden box moves in for the burn, then.............

Looney Tunes theme kicks in....da da da da, da da da da, da da, da da, da da da daaaaaaa!!!!

Curtain shuts,.....THAT'S ALL FOLKS!.

Way to go.

Aid.
