    Well done QM. I was going to ask the resident DJ (Cyc) to lob a Glen Campbell number up to mark the passing of the great man. I don't possess the skills!

    A lot of folk don't know that Glen Campbell was one of the great session guitarists, he was a one time member of the famous Wrecking Crew. Below he shows what he was all about.

    I realise that this thread is about music and art etc, I hope you won't mind too much if I post a photos that I took recently. If it is out of order, then please feel free to remove it.

    I took it one evening when I was at out local lifeboat station in Norfolk for a midweek training session. It was taken looking from the balcony out towards Blakeney. Looked again 5 minutes after taking this and the whole sky had changed.
    If you follow the coastline in the distance, you can see a strip of land sticking out into the sea - that is Blakeney Point :)

    Thanks 'badger'. If nobody minds, I will try and find the photo I took of the lifeboat last April on an actual 'shout'. It looks quite impressive, even if I do say so myself.

    Here's two photos of the lifeboat on the 'shout' last year. As you can see, it was a tad choppy.

    Some sort of line up. George Harrison, Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Jeff Lynne, Bob Dylan and Jim Keltner. I like the guitar on the chair tribute to Roy.

    A National Geographic pic. Cock fighting must be a way of life in West java. Children at play with their "bladeless" rooster.

    Good old Bob certainly knows how to get a scene done. Class act.
