Now I didnt know Mark Knopfler's middle name until now....I did know that both his brother and him were born in Glasgow, but they moved to the North East when they were very young.

So we have Eddy Grant and Electric Avenue and a link with Wolseley.

The link is "The Piano" of course but in a very different form, from the "World Champion" old-time piano player Adam Swanson.....
The PE Landlord is contemplating giving him an audition for the Sunday lunchtime spot.

Original song by Rodgers and Hart circa 1925. Ben Selvin did one of the earliest versions.....he's also got a nice little catalogue of "Dance" numbers including the original charleston which I will include should the pickled egg punters feel inclined to dance.mickthemaverick wrote: ↑03 Nov 2019, 22:30 Yes agreed that is nice but I'd never have guessed it was Ella Fitzgerald!!
