Paul McCartney said he and his first wife, Linda, pulled each other “out of time” when they began living together in the early 1970s. The Beatles were splitting, and they fled London for Paul’s Scottish home, High Park Farm.

It was inevitable that Paul and his future wife, Linda, would meet. He was one of the most famous rock stars in the world. She was becoming a renowned rock photographer.
After celebrating the completion of Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band, at a party hosted by The Beatles’ manager, Brian Epstein, Paul, and some friends went to the famous Soho club, Bag O’Nails.
On that May evening, Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames were playing. Paul sat at his own table. Coincidentally, Bag O’Nails was also Linda’s destination that night.

Pickpockets to highwaymen, bank heists to drug smuggling, the readers' collective Robin Hood act has made a treasure chest
Under the cover of darkness they came. Precious time was snatched to deliver. One reader endured terrible pain and went to hospital, another is set to move house, but this did not stop them. And another, more delightfully, saw the delivery of a beautiful baby (I dedicate this blog to you, prolific Rr regular BeltwayBandit - congratulations!), and despite all of this, during this crazy pre-Christmas period, you still brought riches. Thank you, me hearties, for your bountiful song booty! From rampant robbery to surreptitious smuggling your treasures cascaded through the cellar door of the Readers Recommend and I spent many hours admiring, examining, analysing and enjoying. I am a man poor in time, but rich in song.
And now my turn again to stand and deliver. And indeed, among all the thieves,...

"The Who, The Mods and The Quadrophenia Connection" is the new DVD doc from Sexy Intellectual and Mvd Visual, following guitarist, composer Pete Townsend's 'The Who'.
"...As far as the 'Mod' movement which had guaranteed The Who's early success, and the Pete Townsend composed musical depiction of that movement, 'Quadrophenia', the story has been twisted, complicated and misunderstood, but remains endlessly fascinating. The band, the movement, the album, the second wave, the movie and now the 30th anniversary of the latter two, all make for a story that needs to be told in depth..."
Recently unearthed archival footage from the early movement includes rare performances/interviews with The Who and contributions from Richard Barnes, mod experts Paolo Hewitt and Terry Rawlins, Acid Jazz records owner, broadcaster, Eddie Pillar, Mod revivalists 'The Chords', 'The Purple Hearts' and biographer Alan Clayson.
