Bob Dylan, George Harrison, Jeff Lynne, Roy Orbison and Tom Petty.

Less Tom Petty?? :lol: I honestly never got them. I love Dylan's electric stuff, huge George Harrison fan, nobody sang like the Big O, Jeff Lynn is a genius but all of them together just didn't really do it for me for some reason.

You're right, Nick - somehow they finished up sounding like mainstream bubblegum. :(

'Propliner' is actually short for 'Proper airliner, with big rumbly radials'

Quite right, the parts were always greater than the sum.

Mention Tom Petty....

...and it take me back to one of my favourite tunes.

The wonderful charcters, and filming....

...and my years in the early 1950s when all we fellows rode motorcycles, and all the pretty girls all wore pretty dresses....

...another time, and another place!
