Thank you very much

On the 91st anniversary of his birth, it occurs to me that I've never written about Elvis Presley, in more than 20 years of blogging. So here's some Blue Aeroplanes and Manic Street Preachers, to maintain that proud record.

P.S. Pub quiz trivia time - just realised that Elvis and Bowie shared a birthday.

  1. Until dropping by a couple of blogs today, I had no idea that it was either of their birthdays never mind that they shared it!

  2. I believe that this was the last time David Bowie offered anything other than his music to a radio station. It featured in a 2013 Christmas 6Music show (hosted by Mick Jones & Paul Simonon if I'm not mistaken). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5TC_HYaVMk
