Obviously Sheryl was a massive influence but also his Christian faith has been immensely important in saving his life. Something I...

A really interesting post Nick. Many thanks!

Mr Barlow wrote: The only thing that kept Alice alive and the ONLY thing that got him to stop using drugs was Sheryl. It was Sheryl that SAVED his life. I think this is perhaps an oversimplification. I also believe that his Christian faith helped too-something that was acknowledged by Sheryl in a te...

Its incredible what has been wiped.Slightly off topic I know, but I am a great fan of the film "Zulu". Amazingly, in 1936 Colour Sargent Bourne (Nigel Green "with some guts behind it"!) was interviewed about the battle of Rorke's Drift. Tragically, it was wiped and lost forever so the tape could be ...

Thanks for the further information Andy.

Thanks for responses to my question. I had seen those three songs Toronto Bob and the Paris special-it was more whether there was any good colour concert footage and from other responses seemingly not which is a huge shame. As regards the stripped back show being a disappointment-it was my first eve...

Apologies if this question has been asked / answered before. I was wondering whether any quality "Special Forces" tour footage exists in colour?

Cant say have seen that page Wind Up Toy but from what you say it sounds consistent with posts on here.

When I read the post which began this thread I picked up on the implied disapproval.If the question was framed:Does anyone know if Alice went to...funeral or memorial concert that's fine but I felt the post was loaded. I am with other posters on this who feel it really isn't anyone's business why he...

......well "Millie and Billie" is a brilliant track so an interesting idea and not one without precedent!

....well it sounds something to look forward to. Can't wait to read it!

I am also looking forward to this book. Toronto Bob wrote "I think this will be THE book to get on the ACG. Looking forward to this" A genuine question to Bob and other posters who may share his view- Why do you think this is "THE book?" Do you see Dennis' recollections as being more valid? Do you t...

Mr Barlow wrote: Bowie's success at reinventing himself through the years has a lot to do with his fanbase having an open mind and letting his explore new territory. It seems with Alice, everytime he even remotely strayed from the classic hard rock sound or image his fans turned on him in droves. I ...

Apparently not as he is now "Looking for an answer...."from the "stumblebums", "minions","sycophants" and "buttclowns" etc. who enjoy this forum. Unbelievable.......

Skiptown responded to my post answering his question in an earlier post by writing: "Robbie - unless you want to contribute an opinion about the current topic.....adios." The problem is I am not sure what the "topic" is! So I looked at the title and returned to your first post to remind me. You post...

Skiptown asked: "Have I said something in particular that was wrong and/ or offensive?" The answer to your question can be found in the guidelines for the use of the forum. These state: "..make sure you aren't attacking members of the board or simply being rude." So far you have referred to the "sti...

"...or as a complete separate entity." You been hanging out with "Gunner", Syd?

I am 99% certain I have the early British songbook with B/W cover and other photos inside. I can't check because it's stored in the loft! But from my recollection I don't think it would be called tab today because -and other musicians on here may be able to help out-it was the old style of sheet mus...

Toronto Bob wrote: Well plenty is a relative term isn't it. If plenty is many hundreds of fans at his concerts, then yes plenty. He then wrote: "..can no longer headline large venues,.." What applies to the first applies to the second! Large is a relative term. I often see Alice at Manchester Apollo...

Toronto Bob wrote: "treat your customers well and they'll be repeat and lifelong customers" - I just don't understand this dog-in-the-manger attitude. It seems to me every Alice gig I go to has plenty of repeat and lifelong customers;they are invariably sold out! I have not had the pleasure of meeti...
