MESOPOTAMIA - Part 2 - Windy Hill to Bold
St
By
Phil Thornton
He walks. He walks
at speed. He walks with purpose because he has purpose. He walks with
deliberate steps, with urgency, with intensity because he’s got a lot on
his mind today.

SFA at the Ritz
By Robin Chowder
Thought I’d start with a trip
down memory lane…a decade of two ago, pre-mobile phones, false tits,
the internet, panic rooms etc I was having a bit of jiggy jiggy with a
stunning temp (Lady A) who worked in the office – she was fairly
thick, really good-looking and had the body of a racing snake.

Five
Weirdest Screen Horror Moments
By Kirsty Walker
Now infamous because it was left out of the original cut and replaced
later, even though it's shit. This crappy stunt shows the demonically
possessed Regan O'Neal walking backwards down a staircase and biting the
ankles of the maid in the only really dumb scene in the entire film.

Boys Keep Swinging
By Phil Thornton
For a few issues back in the late 80s I was Boys Own
fanzine’s token ‘northern correspondent.’ I’d just started writing and
had sent a few pieces off to the End but at the time, that august
scouse journal was on its last legs and, although pretty much a
Cockney imitation of The End, Boys Own was far more in tune with my
own ‘soul boy’ musical leanings.

Seven Days On The Breadline

Phil Thornton
Imagine the pitch;
TV Producer :
‘Here’s an idea; it’s
a programme that shines a light on modern inner city poverty’
ITV Commissioning Editor
‘Bor-ing!’

It was Flip. Always Flip but not
the main shop on Long Acre, Covent Garden. It was the warehouse in
Curtain Road, around the corner from work. Curtain Road that is now
achingly cool. Shoreditch twats and all that. However back then it
was empty warehouses or schmutter factories.

Here we go again, it's Monday at last,
He's heading for the Waterloo line,
To catch the 8 a.m. fast, its usually dead on
time,
Hope it isn't late, got to be there by nine.
It was actually the 7:21 am and I had to be there
by 8, but that song would always filter in and out of my head as I
was buying the Mirror from the corner shop, on my way to the station
to catch the train to Hunts Cross.

What’s Eating Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick &
Titch? BBC Special
BBC Footy Presenters
– look it was bad enough when that cunt Lineker replaced Lynam but
atleast the obesity encouraging twat had played the fuckin’ game. Now
we’ve got fucking kids tv presenters, radio one cast offs and fuckin
weathergirls on the screen. |

Playlist
By Phil Thornton
This month’s mix comes from Napoleon Wilson a pseudonym (his real name
is Garribaldi Campbell) for one of the lads behind Harvest Sun.

Twenty five years and twenty odd albums on from his
debut Tom Russell is more relevant than ever. He is the consummate
songwriter.

Tribal Loyalties
By Phil Thornton
I passed a pair of teddy boys last week. Not aul fellars, yer usual ted
vets or the revivalist rockabilly mob from the early 80s. These were
young lads, decked out in cartoon ted outfits, drapes, brothel creepers,
big DA Swedes; the works.
