Pirate Radio -the movie

Caught the movie 'Pirate Radio' today.

As a teen ager in the '60's I was all about
the club scene, the great rock & roll to dance
to and of course the British Invasion. I loved
it all -the Beatles, the Kinks, The Rolling Stones,
Animals, The Who, Gerry & The Pacemakers,
The Hollies, The Searchers, Them but also the
American girl groups, Martha & the Vandellas,
The Ronettes, The Chiffons, The Supremes.
Can't forget the gal singers -Brit & American -
Lesley Gore, Dusty Springfield, Petula Clark,
Marianne Faithful, Lulu, Aretha Franklin,etc.

All the while it was totally unknow to me that
British radio would not allow rock & roll to be
played for more than 1 hour per day -thus
Pirate Radio. Fabulous insight to a cast of
characters who chose at all odds to bring
rock music & all it's evils to over 28 million
British citizens. A terrific true story to get
you up and dancing. I must have the sound
track! Think I was the only one in the audience
singing every song!

Badge-Part II

So I did a little lyrics search after writing my
first blog about the song, 'Badge' by Cream.
It was penned by Eric Clapton and George
Harrison. Now, was that before friend Eric
stole George Harrison's first wife from him?
They were in their late 20's at that time.

Badge by Cream

I have always loved this song from the late '60's.
I now listen to Eric Clapton sing it and wonder ,
"What the hell is he singing about?"
Where did the band get these lyrics?
Was this composed with lots of drugs or not
enough? I just don't know why I still like
this song-but I do.
