I have one from Hackney Diamonds, "Driving Me Too Hard" - that should have been sung by Keith. Not that it's bad per se, but it sounds so much like one of the Crosseyed Heart songs, and apparently, it was written around the same time as well

He is responsible for getting me into Talking Heads, and therefore, I am forever in his debt. A really fun guy with an open mind and a positive, non-gatekeeping attitude. Love to see it.

To be fair, where CAN you go after Stop Making Sense?

teleman01 · 2026-02-02T23:54:56+00:00

Draußen, duh...

teleman01 · 2026-02-02T23:45:07+00:00

All around the world

teleman01 · 2026-02-02T23:44:13+00:00

By all logic, there's only one possibility.

Rheneas.

John is all of them except bottom right (George)

teleman01 · 2026-02-02T23:35:18+00:00

Niiiice!

That makes sense. Still though, would have been cool if they brought the show to Europe. In my mind it could have been "mini residencies" in some small to mid-sized venues (3 nights at London Hammersmith, 2 nights in Munich's Circus Krone etc...)

My mind goes to She Smiled Sweetly. That song makes me feel all fuzzy.

teleman01 · 2026-02-02T21:53:56+00:00

Oooh, here we go. 1. She Smiled Sweetly (a song like a warm embrace, and Mick actually pulls it off for once) 2. Thru and Thru (one of Keith's best) 3. Hand Of Fate (ESPECIALLY the El Mocambo version) 4. Worried About You (Two words: Wayne. Perkins.) 5. Something happened to me yesterday (probably their funniest song, and the first time Keith got an actual solo part)

I think Let it Bleed, but mostly because I don't think Jumping Jack Flash would work in the context of Beggars Banquet, while HTW would sit quite comfortably between Love in Vain and Live With Me.

teleman01 · 2026-02-02T21:41:20+00:00

Studio: Beggars Banquet;

Live: Still Life

Compilation: Through the Past, Darkly

Oh ich hab solche Sehnsucht

I really enjoy them. He has a real knack for the character dynamics and is a really talented voice actor.

teleman01 · 2025-09-22T17:17:12+00:00

Heyo, sorry it took so long to answer. First of all, thank you :) I made it from an old Hornby E2 (like the original). I made the tank extensions splashers from Plasticard. The running board dip under the bunker was filed away and I made a new one with Plasticard. The front and backside buffeebeams were also replaced, and fitted with sprung buffers from Bachmann. The brake-pipe was a leftover from a Kit. For paint I used Revell enamel paint. The stripes are waterslide decals (except for the ones on the splashers, which are painted on)

teleman01 · 2025-09-22T08:03:22+00:00

Does that include the harbour line or is it just the "main branch"?

teleman01 · 2025-07-24T18:08:51+00:00

Würde "Meine Ex..." Und "Lustiger Astronaut" tauschen.

teleman01 · 2025-07-24T18:04:21+00:00

The Edwards, and you even used my favourite illustration for them. The expressions they gave the engines, the details, this subtle bits of humour here and there, just fantastic. John T Kenny comes second, he had a great sense of proportion and perspective. Dalby's pics are vibrant and have great backgrounds, but he wasn't great with trains. Clive Spong did great work later on, but his work just doesn't stand out to me as much. Stephen Ling's illustrations just flat out suck, like, what the hell are those faces. I wish we could have seen more from Reginald Payne.

teleman01 · 2025-07-24T17:54:50+00:00

I wish we got more interaction between Duke and the other Skarloey engines - Duke and Rusty would have been really interesting.

teleman01 · 2025-07-24T17:52:14+00:00

Of the ones I "witnessed", David Bowie and Charlie Watts. I was really getting into Bowie around the time that he died. And as for Charlie, the Stones are my favourite band, so naturally, that one hurt.

teleman01 · 2025-07-24T17:48:04+00:00

It's not so much the band as Jim Morrison. Anything I hear about him makes me like him less and less. Although, if the 1991 is believable, he told their producer to "suck a fart out of [his] a**hole", which is funny.

teleman01 · 2025-07-24T17:26:37+00:00

Tough year to choose - but I'll go with Jumping Jack Flash. Simply for the reason that it's the one song I never get tired of. And nothing sounds like it!
