youtu.be/gX3TcGN5VqU?si=7wz8… A fun memory from 1965 for 1st April! The @RollingStones with mod icon #CathyMcGowan miming to #IGotYouBabe on the brilliant Friday night TV show #ReadySteadyGo. I was 18 at the time and still remember the disbelief we felt that our anti-establishment heroes would do such a thing! Have a great day! @VLafora @Natalie67578650 @denajag @AJDMaru

Terrific blues guitar from the late, great Steve Marriott. I first saw him with his Moments band in the early 1960's and bought him a Cola at the bar with my pocket money. Such is my claim to fame! @VLafora @StanislasPetit @denajag @Natalie67578650 @AJDMaru @smallfaces youtu.be/XMCgqjYA424?si=qxOy…

A love letter to one of the coolest guitars of all time. Is there a more iconic guitar player on Earth than @officialKeef? For more than six decades, the “Human Riff” has been the heartbeat of @RollingStones, inspiring millions of fans and musicians the world over to get out of their seats and rock ’n’ roll. It’s difficult to imagine the popular music landscape without the monolithic presence of Keith Richards looming over it with impossible cool, godlike nonchalance, and, of course, impeccable taste in guitars. Ask any guitarist which instrument of Keith’s they desire the most, and we’re willing to bet his black 1960 Gibson ES-355 is top of the list. Keith first used an ES-355 back in 1969, taking it out on the road and into the studio during the legendary recording sessions for Sticky Fingers and Exile on Main St. His black 1960 model has also been a staple of each and every planet-straddling Rolling Stones tour since 1997. Now, we are proud to present the Keith Richards 1960 ES-355 Collector’s Edition guitar, an exacting replica of the Gibson ES-355 he made famous. Handcrafted in the Gibson Custom Shop in Nashville, Tennessee, it’s not just a tribute to Keith’s original guitar; it’s effectively a clone, employing new 3D scanning technology, identical materials and construction methods, and meticulous Murphy Lab aging. The devil is in the details, and this guitar captures every nuance of the original, right down to the sonics. Limited to only 150 guitars worldwide;. 100 hand-signed by Keith Richards on the F-hole label, and 50 hand-signed on both the F-hole label and the back of the headstock.

Buffalo Springfield - For What It's Worth 1967 youtu.be/gp5JCrSXkJY?si=zHyS… via @YouTube One of the defining songs of the late 1960s it remains as fresh and relevant today as it was then. Enjoy your Friday. Let us hope it’s a peaceful one. @VLafora @Natalie67578650 @denajag @StanislasPetit @AJDMaru #BuffaloSpringfield #ForWhatItsWorth

Commiserations to Spain, Vicente. To "lose" on penalties after 2 hours of a hard fought game must be unbearably disappointing. Spain are a great team to watch - and are still world champions after all!
Good morning Vicente! A great post as always! Enjoy your Sunday. And, once again, may the best team win in Basel! 🇪🇸 v🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 ⚽️🏆

youtu.be/Cf1hKtrA9lg?si=s1TD… This weekend Ed Sheeran @edsheeran is playing 3 gigs at Portman Road stadium, Ipswich, Suffolk, England, home of Ipswich Town Football Club @ITFC. Ed, who grew up and still lives not far from Ipswich, is, like me, a keen supporter of ITFC and sponsors the team's shirt. I have been a season ticket holder at Portman Road for over 30 years and my seat is in the row right in front of Ed's executive box. Despite his global stardom as a singer/songwriter he actively supports local charities and communities. He remains true to his roots and is a really nice guy. Having grown up with The Beatles and the Stones there are not many artists today whose music I really want to listen to but Ed Sheeran is a standout exception. He is constantly "pushing the envelope" as his recent projects and releases show - this track for F1 The Movie @F1Movie , "Sapphire" #sapphire produced in India and "Old Phone" #oldphone for which the wonderful video was shot in Ipswich MA USA. These 3 songs demonstrate Ed's amazing versatility. His one man shows are unique and innovative and I believe he will become recognised as one of the great songwriters of the modern era. I will be at Portman Road Ipswich, 15 miles from where I live, for tonight's show. Can't wait! @VLafora @Natalie67578650 @denajag @StanislasPetit @AJDMaru @prolixmusic_ @claireTerrieux

This is my Japanese wisteria at its glorious best today. I planted it about 30 years ago as a single specimen a few feet tall. Now it produces thousands of blooms up to a metre in length. #wisteria #floribundamacrobotrys #wisteriahysteria

John Lennon. 1968 interview. "I think they're all insane. I'm liable to be put away as insane for expressing that. That's what's insane about it." youtu.be/mvqmGUZTCtU?si=Zd51…

The Kinks timeless classic Waterloo Sunset seems even more evocative today than in the late 60s when I crossed Waterloo Bridge from and to Waterloo Station every working day. Such wonderful lyrics. I never did see Terry and Julie on a Friday night though. youtu.be/kqLoYQx8BXo?si=wBIo… @TheKinks @VLafora @natalie62292640 @prolixmusic_ @denajag @AJDMaru @StanislasPetit @MrChelseaDagger #waterloosunset
