Hey nice one Taylor. I will def check that out. A varied and eclectic career so far - to say the least. A good man to have a few pints with whenever that pleasure comes round (and when you're in Ireland!) I will be purchasing that book, not sure whether online or in_store. Soon. When I have it read I'll let you know somewhere on the site here... ...very best of luck with it...  ------------- One of its legs is both the same |

Taylor - that's great - congrats - would you like us to read out either poem on The Grove Show - would be happy to do that. Actually you are the second Grover to get published soon - Clare O'Reilly who sent in a playlist and Grove poem is getting her collection published and released later this week. ------------- Keep it Local, Keep it Near! |

‘The Grove Social Club’ tribute to Cecil is actually a piece of short prose. And yes, I would be absolutely delighted if it was read out on your show!! Please let me know where and when if you decide to do so!!’ All good wishes in the meantime, ‘Taylor’ / Patrick 😃👍 PS 1: Here is a link to the published piece which I posted last year as a blogpost: https://www.patrick-patridge.com/blog/the-grove-social-club" rel="nofollow - https://www.patrick-patridge.com/blog/the-grove-social-club PS 2: And congratulations to Clare, too! ✨ Well done! ------------- The Universe is a void full of infinite possibilities |

Brian, Just a thought. I was going to pull "Geno" from my playlist - it's really overplayed at this point. I was going to replace it with another tune but - if it suited the crew's timing for putting on the playlist etc - you could substitute it with Patrick's (Taylor's!) prose piece? Just an idea...

Taylor - that's great - thank you for the link and well done. I will keep you posted on the date. Gerry - that's a very kind offer and if you are sure we can certainly do that and read out Taylor's piece. I know I am due to get back to you on the air date, will be very soon. ------------- Keep it Local, Keep it Near! |

Ah thanks Pat, you are a gentleman. And I found a cracker of a tune from CCR that I hadn't heard before - to round off the show! But no clues! ------------- One of its legs is both the same |

HAH! Now Gerry has us all wondering - New competition on the Forum! Guess Gerry's lesser-played CCR song Here's my guess: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHHEUyWJXhM" rel="nofollow - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rHHEUyWJXhM

The hint is in the post. A song that's new to Gerry's ears. So probably not one of the hits. I have a few songs in mind but we'll see. Whatever CCR song it is I will be happy and delighted one of their songs are included in the show. Always knew our Gerry had good taste in music. 👍👍 ------------- May be going to hell in a bucket but at least I'm enjoying the ride. Biker Pat Grove 1972-1975 |

Heya folks, been a while (again) used to be part of my routine logging in here every day when working in the REAL office, but I have lost my way with the remote working. Hope all are well. :) Getting closer to a grove bash in HBs - some "indoor dining" as it were.... ------------- TPFKAB (The Poster Formerly Known As Brunswick). |
