Re: OBITUARIES

As a guitar player I question how influential Jeff Beck was, especially to rock guitarist. Beck was very influential to jazz\rock (fusion), guitarists but Beck was much more skilled than most rock guitarist and thus what Beck was doing was over the head of the average rock guitarist.

Re: I Just Watched...

I saw Thorold Dickinson's The Queen of Spades (1949) with Anton Walbrook, Edith Evans and Yvonne Mitchell last night at the BFI Southbank. Apparently this was once considered a lost film but is now enjoying a 4K restoration run in London. I really enjoyed it. The notes accompanying the film said th...

All of the clips in this documentary are brief and presented to show the style or use of nudity in that era. None were more than a few seconds. That does not ease the fact...
