JK2006	Crazy Horses is one of the best rock records ever made.
giles2008	Hyped they may have been but they had talent by the truckload. I've been listening to their album "The Plan" a lot recently. A concept album about Mormonism. And the record company went with it. Can't imagine any of the multi media companies doing it today. "The Plan" produced two top five hits, "Going Home" and "Let Me In" a track which is in my mind the height of the bands career although there are a couple of other tracks that come close ("Are You Up There" is one). It has been described as their "Sgt Pepper" and had it been by any other act it would be regarded as a classic album. Well worth a listen.
JK2006	Now happily in his 50s, he seems to have aged well (looks very like Cliff Richard these days). He was wonderful on Strictly; as good a judge as the others, most entertaining. I met and interviewed Jimmy; watch it on You Tube. A thoroughly decent man. I do wonder how differently executives treated Justin Bieber. My friend Tony Prince featured in Fern Britton's hour long piece on BBC. Interesting listening to Casey Kasem (who played MY version of Hooked On A Feeling when the Blue Swede copy made No1 in America) announcing the Osmonds were No1 on the American Top 40 and remembering the hype that Mike Curb (then boss of MGM records - later Governor of California) put into the act.
