Many of our regulars here are very familiar with the screen name PUK, or PeterUK. He had been conspicuously absent for the last week, so much so that I was compelled to contact a mutual friend, Clarice Feldman. She’d been having the same concerns and was busy racking her brain trying to think of a [...]
Harmony Korine is the one-man awkward squad of indie cinema, and his new film Trash Humpers, a tale of delinquent seniors, looks to be his most off-putting yet On stage during a Q&A after the London premiere of his new film Trash Humpers, it's as if Harmony Korine has become a character in one of his movies: a bad-taste bar mitzvah comedian, perhaps. Someone in the audience asks how he cast the...
Did that holiday even happen? It feels like it never did. Back to the grindstone full tilt. Work is proper bobbins. Especially when every person I come across is snochering and snivelling and coughing. My throat's already starting to tickle, and my nose feels suspiciously itchy. Urgh. Being back at work has a whole new set of challenges. Namely, in avoiding The Man I Have a Crush On. But who appears...
'You like the Shadows? You'll love Herman's Hermits' Boffins in California say they have produced music-recommendation software which produces playlists "as good as" those from Apple's iTunes Genius - and which has the advantages of collecting no user data and having in its repertoire a lot of music that "Genius knows nothing about".… Case Study: WhatsUp keeps Legoland turnstyles...
Ashby-de-la-Zouch: Cannon and Ball are one of Britain’s most successful comedy double acts. Bobby shares his life-changing story and now uses his talents to show that God’s love and forgiveness is for real and available to everyone! He will be talking at Ivanhoe College on Tuesday, November 24, at 7pm. The event, with John Gaughan, of 1960s band Herman’s Hermits, in support, has been...
The band that had the most impact at Indietracks 2009, to these eyes and ears at least, was The Specific Heats. Their set in the packed church was delayed when their reverb unit rebelled against the UK voltage and caught fire in protest, filling the stage with smoke. Once the offending unit was removed, the band, in matching capes, played a spectacularly energetic set of 60s garage-influenced indiepop,...

Eighth I Am. Henry The Eighth I Am. Noone suspects the robot. But if former Herman’s Hermits star Peter Noone isn’t there, you’ll be golden. A good spy isn’t blowing up boats and leaving a trail of receipts. A good spy is invisible. A good spy comes and goes without ever leaving a trace. And a very good spy never even leaves the couch. Really, which would you rather be? A dude...
Of all the classic British bands from the 1960's perhaps the band who have been dealt the most unfair deck has been the Small Faces. Rather unjustly viewed as a mere forerunner for Humble Pie and The Faces by many, or just a vehicle of convenience for two of the finest singers to have been produced in these isles in Rod Stewart and Steve Marriott, their own more than ample achievements seem to lie...
Herman's Hermits made a big hit out of this song, but here's the original excellent version by Frankie Ford: and here's John Fogerty: I will post some more on board ship pictures in a few days. I am always up for taking somebody on a sea cruise.
