Foc me, a Mongolian rock band.(Had to look them up). Proper off the wall stuff that is. First time I'd heard of Ulaanbaatar, where they're from, was when Charlie and Ewan passed through on their beemers.

Shame that the current tour has been postponed due to Covid.

Pete Townshend was one of the four screenplay writers. I've often wondered if they financed the film as the production company was The Who Films Ltd. Despite the many glaring errors in the film, I've always found it a good watch as it successfully captured the mood of the time.

Funny isn't it, I started riding in '83 and even then the 'mods and rockers' thing was still going on and no motorcyclist I knew would ever admit to liking The Who cos they were a mod band.

If someone genuinely likes music, they'll like what they hear irrespective of what group of people identify with that music. Born in 1946, rock'n'roll was my natural music genre, until via older kids I discovered Radio Luxembourg, which opened up a whole new music experience, made greater by the advent of pirate radio a few years later. Can't stand jazz or reggae though :lol

I started riding a little before you, I've never like heavy rock, my mates pretty much all didn't either, we were big 'Who, Madness most scar actually, even sole and chart stuff. So you're not alone

Radio Luxembourg always seemed to be clear as a bell during the adverts, but always seemed to fade out when one of your favourites was being played. "Horace Batchelor,Keynsham,Bristol" was always loud and clear :lol :lol
