Coss Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 The Frozen Ground (2013) - true story, serial killer in Alaska. Nicolas Cage, does a good job as the cop, Vanessa Hudgens, John Cusack are good too. Worth a watch, not like Cage's usual dogs, this one's a good 'un. Some naked women in this.

Mekong Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 I feel for Jack White actually, Seven Nation Army was probably IMHO th best riff written in the past 20 years or so and Jimmy Page just nailed it, bass line to begin with, don’t forget he was the bassist in the yardbirds have youmever seeen Page on bass with Jeff Beck IMHO Beck was the man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mekong Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 I saw Clapton at Royal Albert Hall, Page at Kebworth and Beck at Ronnie Scott’s jazz club Soho within 5 days of each other , defo beck for me, he has always played person to person rather than a large crowd A Zepplinn Classic “Dazed and Cofused”Oh please it was an old Yardbirds staple ... haha not that old my dad taught me http://youtube.com/watch?v=3ffBRhtWjEQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cavanami Posted September 18, 2018 Report Share Posted September 18, 2018 That era brought out many bands, many short lived; Blind Faith, giving a taste of Steve Winwood. Yardbirds, yes, Derek and the Dominos, so many more. All these players had the gift. I learned guitar but I never had the gift, just too mechanical. I could read and write music, but never had that magic. Great days, for sure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Penis is hungry Posted September 21, 2018 Report Share Posted September 21, 2018 Hurricane was the mainstay of Battle of Britain which is often overlooked, by far more hurricanes deployed and had greater kill numbers, Spitfire came into it's own after that There were twice as many Hurricanes in the Battle of Britain, and mostly Hurricanes at the start, They shot down most of German aircraft, and more of the bombers - which was the key Spitfires, a much better fighter to be honest, concentrated on the fighter escorts, it's diminished role is that frankly not enough had been built by then to actually make the numbers, whereas the older Hurricane was just far more numerically superior by a ratio of 2:1 at the start of the war. THe spitfire is commonly called a "Thoroughbred", and the Hurricane a "Workhorse". The Hurricane was also able to inflict more damage, but being slower but more stable platform, needed the Spitfire to let it get to the Bombers, One famous Spitfire fighter said without both, the Battle of Britain would have been lost, and he would not have wanted to be a hurricane pilot carrying the bulk of the fighting in 1940 The SPitfire and also British Bombers raiding Germany all played important parts in the British Victory, But all said, it was the dull workhorse the Hurricane that inflicted far greater damage that the Spitfire, and was in far more numbers than the Spitfire And was the main contributor in winning in the Battle of Britain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
