Bits and ...

Looking forward to the release of the Fast and the Furious 9, at the end of May. Having seen the trailer, it appears to contain more of the improbable action sequences that I've come to enjoy.


One Night at the Palladium, is a Robbie Williams, 2013 concert. Described as 'a lavish show of pure  cabaret,' it's what you would expect from the irrepressible Robbie: great entertainment value.


Continuing with Cliff Richard: Iv'e seen one concert perfomance DVD, which I would like to get and that is70th Annniversary Concert, from the Royal Albert Hall in 2010.

Midway

One film I would like to get is the 2019, Midway. It's just been released on DVD. I suppose in both American military history and the direction of the Second World War, it was of enormous  significance...a pivatol action, that was key, in the eventual defeat of Japan, in the Pacific War.    There was a 1976 film on the same subject, but I have never seen that.

Rod Stewart

Once again I'm interested getting a Rod Stewart CD or DVD. Currently I'm looking at the 1990s, but I'm easy. Have just seen an anthology, ie.  1964-1990 and that contains many of his best known songs. I'm not sure what he did after 1990?

Elton John

I like a lot of Elton John's music from the early/ mid1970s and much of what he has done since then. The film Rocketman, includes mainly songs from that period. Amazing for the quantity and quality of that musical output: lets not forget  Bernie Taupin's incredible contribution. I will definitely get the DVD.


Another band which I don't really know much about, is Pink Floyd. However, after seeing a performance on BBC4, I would like to get a DVD compilation of greatest hits.

1980's music

 Always looking for 1980's music on CD. One I  particularly want to get (see previous),                    is Now:100, Forgotten 80's Music. Confused though, in what way will they have really been forgotten, unless it's just because time has simply elapsed since they were hits...probably?


Is Robbie Williams really going to go into the, I'm a Celebrity...Jungle? Hmmm.

Eurovision Song Contest

 Looking forward, (in May), to the Eurovision Song Contest. I have a couple of DVDs from previous years and all are very entertaining and great fun to watch. So, I will be definitely looking forward to it.

The Fast and the Furious.

The Fast and the Furious is one of my favourite action films/ series. I know there is a number 9, in the series, coming out in May this year. The films obviously have proved to have a formula which works.

Michael Ball and Alfie Boe, are on tour this Feb/ March. I'll get the CD, when it's released later in the year.
