Ogden's nut gone flake on stage!

The Who's album Tommy is widely acclaimed as the very first Rock And Roll concept album ....WRONG! The Small Faces classic album Ogden's Nut Gone Flake predates the Who's effort by a full 12 months but unlike Tommy it has never graced the stage......until now. This million selling album celebrates its 40th birthday this year and surely rates alongside the Beatles Sergeant Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band and the Beach Boys Pet Sounds as one of the finest, if not THE finest album of the swinging 1960s. It tells the story, in a typically whimsical English manner, of a character called Happiness Stan and his quest to find the missing half of the moon and features just about every genre of music in doing so. It mixes the Psychedelia of the day with Old Time Music Hall, Folk and Heavy Rock and just to add even more spice to the pudding the unique presence of Stanley Unwin's narration. The Playbox theatre production featuring the Small Fakers, Stanley Unwin's son John, actors, actresses, puppeteers et al. is for 3 nights only and NOT TOO BE MISSED!

Nice or what ..... John Hellier.

En Concerto al Palatrussardi

Heart of glass is not only a Blondie's song

It's also a real piece of art made by Claire Vickery, Wigzy, miracle maker and also art pieces designer. She has made a piece that should be of interest. Inspired by the Peter Blake artwork on Stanley Road and suggested by Dodger, She has made a glass square target with a heart as the top layer. It measures 7cm x 8cm (inc. the wire), has four layers of yellow, red, blue and red and clear for the heart and can be hung by the integrated wire in a window, mirror or on a wall. And it rocks!
