I like the Killing Joke song...more synth-pop than industrial, but nice.

Yeah, and Bob is Bob.

You do three different things on the toilet?

The biggest joke is Rod Stewart's clothing style.

The Crack - you kept me waiting

I had quite forgotten it is Saturday so this will be rushed.

Happy Birthday to Jane Siberry who is 58.

This clip is of kd Lang singing her composition "The Valley". It is the best version of one hell of a song:

Rick Parfitt is 65. It is Francis Rossi's ornaments my octogenarian parents have in their living room, courtesy of local boot sales, but who is to say one of Rick's isn't among them? Here are the Quo at Knebworth:

Status Quo - Rockin' All Over The World - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-8K8Hj8bxE

The great Sam Moore is 78. A great clip, this, but a pity about the pop-ups:

Sam and Dave - Hold On I'm Coming - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOLBUtbF8qM

Melvin Franklin was born on 12 October 1942. His bass vocal is best remembered on this track, particularly for the line "and the band played on". He died in February 1995:

The Temptations - Ball of Confusion - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=miZWYmxr8XE

Two of The Damned have birthdays. Dave Vanian is 57. Bryn Merrick, who joined the band in 1983, is 55:

The Damned - Thanks For The Night - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_3OhiFdB4lA

A man who would have been 78 today had he not died in 2007:

Luciano Pavarotti - Nessun Dorma - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VATmgtmR5o4

Finally RVW, the greatest classical composer of them all, is 141:

Ralph Vaughan Williams - A London Symphony (Lento) - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LogrjQyyFZA

Bruch - Violin Concerto

More John Tams (I am putting together a CD in an attempt to persuade the girlfriend to go to a concert):

Sharpe - Over the Hills and far away

Tams, musical director and Rifleman Daniel Hagman, the best shot in the regiment, can be glimpsed bludgeoning a Frenchman at around 1:15.

Machu Picchu by The Strokes
