Aintree Iron: The Autobiography of Fred and Mercy Rimell

Product Information

Up here in Scotland, soon after the song was released, a friend of mine was informed by a Uni lecturer that "Aintree I-on" (which it sounded like to Scottish eardrums) was a euphemism for "Aintree Lie-on. Stephen Bold says that he once heard me define the Aintree Iron as "iron hoof: poof", ie Brian Epstein, "a resident of Aintree". com had supplied me with “music that is related to” the Bonzo Dog Band, and thus I was presented with the insane catchiness of the Scaffold. He’s just been talking to The Wall Street Journal and now he’s telling me, “It’s a pleasure to be in Record Collector.

the Walker Art Gallery is quite good and I've heard Liverpool is an excellent place for a night out.In 2002, World of Books Group was founded on an ethos to do good, protect the planet and support charities by enabling more goods to be reused. In addition to the hit singles, The Scaffold's output included four albums: The Scaffold on Parlophone in 1968, L. I think in the end the conclusion was that the lyric was a bit of nonsense, as no local people had ever heard the phrase before the song was released. We give people around the world the opportunity to contribute to the circular economy, earn money and protect the planet, by trading their unwanted books and media. In 2009, the classic lineup was reunited in Ronnie Scott's London Jazz Club for a BBC TV programme, and in October 2010, they reconvened for a Gala Concert in Shanghai, to celebrate the end of the Liverpool Pavilion as part of the World Expo.

And that’s why, when our kid launched his first Wings in London, I was having a wee and this lad comes in and says, ‘Hi, Mike. Our kid said, ‘Don’t do that…’”The Aintree Iron is a line that has had many explanations, many of them quite unsavoury and attached to famous people. In 1970 The Scaffold starred in their own popular weekly BBC children's television series, Score with the Scaffold. Since then he has arguably maintained the highest-profile and most sustained post-Scaffold career, still appearing regularly as a vocal performer on British radio and television, and continuing to be a highly regarded poet and author.The members of the Scaffold were originally part of a performing revue group known as The Liverpool One Fat Lady All Electric Show. This was followed by a second greatest hits collection, the first on Compact Disc, The Scaffold: The Songs, in 1992.

Innes and Stanshall can also be heard contributing to The Scaffold's final release for Parlophone, Do The Albert, which also featured Keith Moon and Les Harvey. To get you in the mood, a few awful things about Liverpool which you should think about (even if you don't know about them) to send their team negative vibes. As an American - no, I didn't vote for George, not either time - I always enjoy listening to "Sports Roundup" on the BBC for the simple reason that I have no idea what they're talking about.

Peter Jones for Record Mirror described it as "a great old send-up of those ever-so-grateful-for-things songs – and it's pushed along at such a rare old pace that it's very catchy indeed.

I once went to a supermarket in Liverpool on business, and as I got out of the car noticed that the building next door was surrounded by a 12ft security fence topped off with barbed wire and razor ribbon. This gallery is dedicated to some of the best fiction and nonfiction portraying one of the greatest cities in the world. On reading all of the above possibilities I think the meeting place for poets and musicians is the one I will discuss with him.

It's also my birthday and we're going for a liquid lunch first, so I'll hopefully be drunk before kick-off. Thank U Very Much" is a song by Liverpudlian comedy trio the Scaffold, released as a single in November 1967.I have never commented on Brian's sexuality, and I could never have said that he was a resident of Aintree, as he didn't live there. I said, ‘Bugger all,’ and he said, ‘You’ve got six kids, we should try and do a single and get you some money. No missing or damaged pages, no creases or tears, no underlining or highlighting of text, and no writing in the margins. Meanwhile, in 1978, McGough released his spoken-word solo album Summer With Monika (based upon his celebrated poetry collection of the same name).
