But I just learned that Jessica Brown Findlay (who played that fresh-as-morning-dew chick in "Downton Abbey") is now working in a TV show called "Harlots." Apparently, it is set in 18th century England and it tells the story of Margaret Wells who runs a brothel and struggles to raise her daughters in a chaotic household.<br /><br />Mother. Whorehouse. Daughters.<br /><br />How totally awesome is that?Eric the Fruit Bathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11003976042428037836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-24026327610680083792017-07-29T08:06:33.791-04:002017-07-29T08:06:33.791-04:00Charlie looks like Caitlyn Jenner in this vid.Charlie looks like Caitlyn Jenner in this vid.Amartelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11636450794507517534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-717986195212622043.post-515206026133991232017-07-29T00:06:03.041-04:002017-07-29T00:06:03.041-04:00Not the best hairstyle for drummer Charlie Watts, ...Not the best hairstyle for drummer Charlie Watts, IMHO. :)<br /><br />Mick Taylor. There's still a fair bit of acrimony between him and the Glimmer Twins. He did, after all, <i>quit</i> the band, to be replaced by Ronnie Wood. Wood got in by bringing them the hit song "It's Only Rock n Roll (But I like It)." It's a great story. I made a short video about it <a href="http://acrazychicken.blogspot.com/2012/10/its-only-rock-and-roll-but-i-like-it.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>. There are two video versions of "It's Only Rock And Roll" as well. The first one -- the original -- was in heavy rotation in the early days of MTV. I suspect that the Stones cut a later, inferior version of the Beach tent "bubbles" video to avoid being sued. I have searched the internets high and low for the original, but it has been successfully "disappeared." <br /><br />"It's Only Rock And Roll" is the only song which Keith Richards declared a mistake and he insisted on changing the key and making it inferior. Again, I suspect, to avoid a lawsuit. <br /><br />"Honky Tonk Women" is pure Rolling Stones magic, however. Ry Cooder may disagree.chickelithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10773887469972534979noreply@blogger.com
