Mick Jagger is EIGHTY,who recalls Ned Kelly

So can I foxygloves. I was never a fan of Cliff but Omar Sharrif ……

My sister met Omar Sharrif back in the mid 70's when she worked at the Foreign Office in Paris, he asked out her, she said no lol!

Fanny lovely to see the ad for the Everlys tour.
I went to the the same concert but in London.
The Stones tried to chat me up beforehand. They were very keen but looked scruffy compared to most (clean cut) groups and I gave them the heave ho. Surprised me when they suddenly appeared on stage.

I worked in the Outback back in the day, but Ned Kelly was before my time...

But was Mick Jagger there, pretending to be an outlaw in the Outback? 😁

I was not interested in the Stones, or the Beatles but my children were.
I was into the big bands when I was in myteens. Henry Hall, Joe Loss.
I watched programme about Joan Collins last night. She is 90.

In the summer of 1969 I saw Mick Jagger in a white dress in the Stones free concert in Hyde Park. I had previously seen him in a concert in the Bradford Art College in 1964, or was it 1963? No one knew much about them then I think. Doesn’t seem that long ago!

Oh, didn't see that. Is she really 90, Bijou? 😲

My DB and SisIL loved Joe Loss and saw him at dances they used to go to.

I wasn't too keen on Mick Jagger, except that I had always had thick lips and my elder sister used to laugh at me, so I was very grateful for 'rubberlips' then, even if his voice grated. It still does, when I watch the '''60s' programme.

What amazes me about that programme is that so many videos were made. That is new to me. Where were vidoes in the 1960s?

Yes, poor Jerry. She always seems so nice as well (I love her voice)
And then she got treated abysmally by blooming Rupert Murdoch!

She should have stayed with Bryan Ferry now there's" Whoar" and wearing well for mid 70's. Though he's had about 4 wives as well. Northern but with a lounge Lizard smoothness.

No!! Not Bryan Ferry.
Mind you, if I had to choose?

None of the above 😲

I watched the Stones last night on SkyArts with my DD and grandchildren, 7 year old GS was transfixed !
My late DH was a big fan but I was more for the Beatles …

I was really amazed to find that he was from a working class background.

I think more than a few people knew them, they had their first hit in 1963.

Kilburn is still very dodgy.

1970 is 53 years ago - but yes i remember going to see Tommy Steele. The only Ned Kelly I remember (from reading I wasn’t there was an Australian Outlaw from the late 19th Century. But though i enjoyed pop’ music and dancing to it at parties, I couldn’t’t name many of the singers and was/am always pretty eclectic - I always preferred Classical music, particularly Opera!! Never really liked the Rolling Stones then - tho many of their numbers now have a nostalgic memory for me - dancing!

I meet The Roling Stones The Beatles and Omar Sharif often they used to come frequently to a club my husband and I worked in the most charming Omar Sharif and Ringo Star

I couldn't stand Mick Jaggers looks or his prancing about, and my views haven't changed. I did go and see the Beatles and some other Liverpool groups, but it was really Elvis, Cliff, Billy Fury, Marty Wilde, Eden Kane and Adam Faith that were my heroes. I queued up for ages to see Russ Conway after his show, and have an autographed copy of 'Side Saddle'.

I used to chat to Joe Jagger, Mick's Dad, when my job with the Sports Council involved taking bookings for his students. He was lovely!

I loved the Beatles. Saw them lots of times at the Cavern. Saw the Rolling Stones in Blackpool in 1964 (think it was) at the tower. His face looked 80 then. Not a fan. Give me the Beatles every time.
