just went for my lunch and turned on the kitchen radio - R5... seems they were commentating on a women's tennis game somewhere-or-other - one of the Williams sisters I think...

anyway - behind the sound of raquets hitting tennis balls, the umpire, the crowd and the commentators, it was quite evident that the BBC appear to have accidentally broadcast the sound-track to an x-rated adult movie. from what I could gather, two women were being rogered quite hard, and enjoying the experience....

someone will get the sack..

Wow, I thought tennis was tedious enough on the box, but LISTENING to it? Blimey.

As for the Williams sisters, well, 'sisters' is pushing it - they're more masculine than I am

Are you sure you hadn't left your video playing in the living room?

Just sorting out my CD's, despite having moved five months ago. Got as far as this - stopped at this. Every bit as magnificent tonight as it was in 1990 :D

Mahagonny Suite - Kurt Weill.

Daughter promised me the full opera for my birthday - Lotte Lenya singing, so possibly 1929 original production.

Looking forward to it.

Also did a youtube on Paul Robeson after hearing him singing Ol Man River on the radio yesterday. What a great voice he had. What a great man he was.

It's way back in time black and white. So way back in fact I've forgoten most of it. I can remember it was about gun-running slavery and singing and the great white B'wana etc. Apparently Paul Robeson was so upset at the way they twisted the plot away from African culture that he tried to buy all the copies to stop it ever being seen again.

Nick Drake - a complilation a mate did for me. One of those singers whose music can lift you and take you down at the same time.

In a Kurt Weill/Bertolt Brecht mood... how great is you tube?

Apart from, possibly, the original Lotte Lenya, Weill’s wife, no one sings Brecht/Weill better than the wonderful Ute Lemper.
