thE leT mE iNtRojooce zE fActCaNnoN:
gooped tops, dark sunglasses, tough & stringy steak, hats made of meat, top hats, hats shops, shopping for toys, toy shops, real shops, hopping, wooden legs, big orthapaedic shoes, extremely baggy trousers, trouser jazz, avant garde jazz, loud thrashing noizes, the sound of silence, short hair, advocat, bagpuss, plain-faced girls in modest swimwear, monster munCh pICkold UnIoN fLaYVeR. what is the difference between a duck?talking about low brow subjects in a high brow kind of way and talking about high brow subjects in a low brow kind of way. an active shouter, sleeper, throwing sticks and twirling whilst playing drums shambolically. an enthusiast of endlessly trying to get all of the mascara out of mine eyes. and bimbersealing.
dr snurd, mrs CJ, richard pryer... and the amazing flying bear that crashed into the lightbulb that shattered into a million shards of glass all over my afro. Also someone with slick hair whos outfit consists of a denim playsuit (rompers) & green stilettos.
for clubs: 60s r&b and soul. for home: punk, beat and garage rock, hard bop & modal 50s & 60s jazz. for orchestration: proto metal & thrashing free jazz. i also like the stranglers again.
anything by jean luc goddard (except the rolling stones drivel), woody allen, roman polanski, and alfred hitchcock. plus dad's army: the movie.
only comedies for me, so to name but a few: fawlty towers, garth merengi's darkplace, the entire portfolio of coogan materials, mighty booSh, father ted, nighty night, the office is ok, reggie p, yes minster (underrated), phoenix nites, blackadder, python, young ones, chris morris doodles, pete & dud. i wanted to watch that 5ive documentary on quicksand but, unfortunately i was tying my shoelaces at the time so missed 87% of it.
the fountainhead, brave new world, the trial, the picture of dorian gray, what is history?
