Burning Up Time - The Stranglers and Hugh Cornwell Unofficial Forums

I love that John Mclaughlin is cited by JJ as one of teh top 5 guitarits.

Not a sentiment shared by Hugh in on TITS!

For those wondering, it's in Scorrier, Cornwall

It's a superb venue!!!

Go!

Today is Geordie's funeral. Midday Czech time, 11am ours. Perhaps spare a thought.

Well, we shall see about that!!!

It must cross his mind, at least, that its been 50 years? Even if he just thinks 'blimey' to himself. Really, this anniversary only means something to him and JJ.

No reason why he should as he isn't a Strangler anymore, didn't want to be so doubt he is even remotely bothered. And that is how it should be!

It IS the States after all. SO it will be interesting to see the perception in the UK with the festivals.

Adam Ant does alot in America and is obviously far more visible for example.

Not exactly star billing though is it?

He was never gonna make old bones was he? Amazed he got this far!

Best of luck to you Shane in the afterlife!

They all write but Geordie was the man with the riffs.

Well, exactly!

Fucking tragic! He and Jaz were due in teh studio in the coming week.

A genius guitar player and I mean it.

He was charming, witty, cruel and akward, loved and admired.

Such a shame. Such a fucking shame.
