I’m surprised they’re not a band I can recall Joe. I thought I knew it all. “The Old Grey Whistle Test” was a great show and Be Bop Deluxe are not bad at all. With those outrageous outfits though, they definitely belong in my “Did The Seventies Really Happen?” Topic.

Yep, got a mention in David Herrick’s list. Pretty Flamingo – Manfred Mann.

Must say I preferred the Flesh Gordon movie myself. Now that was laugh out loud funny!
-
Perhaps you should create a new Topic, David. Something like ”Dylan Favourites”, maybe.
-
Correction there Joe.
Written in Rishikesh during the Beatles’ trip to India in early 1968, ”Dear Prudence” was inspired by actress Mia Farrow’s sister, Prudence Farrow,

Ah, but Jacki, the Purple People Eater is an alien, not an animal!

So true Bill. And it gets even better, as I posted yesterday in the Lisa vs. Mona Topic:
“The MonaLisa Twins take it to the extreme though. Singers, songwriters, mult-instrumentalists, recording engineers, producers. Add to that video production, marketing and distribution and you really do have the complete package.”
I like your alternate titles for “Waiting For The Waiter” and “The Wide Wide Land”!

Good morning Joe. I replied earlier that you showed insight. Well I think you are quite wise too. I would also choose both Chuck Berry and Buddy Holly over Elvis for the same reason. Chuck and Buddy were the complete package. Singers, songwriters and musicians. The same goes for the Beatles over the Monkees etcetera.
The MonaLisa Twins take it to the extreme though. Singers, songwriters, mult-instrumentalists, recording engineers, producers. Add to that video production, marketing and distribution and you really do have the complete package.
Their covers and YouTube videos are more a marketing tool to attract music fans who then find out about their original material and purchase that. That’s where the real money would be made.
Well your day may be just starting but mine is just finishing and it is way past my bedtime. My cat will be waking me from around 6-7am to be let out, after which I will return to bed and he will come back in around two hours and if I’m still in bed he’ll harass me until I get up.
He’s a very social cat and likes to visit all the neighbours in my block of flats in the morning.

If you mean their biological mother, as far as I know they have only mentioned her in relation to how Lisa got her name. As for Mona, I believe they had a boy’s name in mind before she was born. They have referred to this in I think one of their radio interviews, if I remember correctly.
I think it is probably a personal matter that they haven’t felt like discussing and who knows, they may offer more in the future if they change their minds. In the meantime, I’m happy to leave them some privacy in their life. They already offer so much.

Yes, Lennon owns “Twist and Shout” and also “Please Mr Postman”, the MLT live cover of which I am looking forward to when it eventually appears from their Cavern Club final appearance.
However, was Lennon 13 and playing the drums like that when the Beatles recorded their cover?
-
Now Joe, are you up already? I thought you’d just gone to bed!
I think you are showing amazing insight there. I have felt the same way for a long time now. Right from their first public concert, Lisa is taking the lead in most of the songs and Mona is content, and happy (she can’t restrain her beautiful beaming smile), to go with the flow. When given the opportunity to take the lead, she absolutely shines with their brilliant ”Twist and Shout”.
Lisa pushed through the anxiety barrier to first perform solo in an open mic situation with their own composition, ”Alone”. She was so overcome with emotion that she cried at the end. Everyone thought something terrible must have happened to her. Fortunately, with support from her equally adorable sister and her amazing parents, the MLT finally emerged and have been charming us ever since.
You will also notice that Mona is more prepared to goof around (takes after their papa, I think). Their ”Bus Stop” video is testament to that.
There have been many photos where Mona is smiling while Lisa looks pensive, deep in thought. In true MLT, self deprecating fashion, she would probably say she is just anxious or confused, wondering what life is all about! Some of that self doubt comes out in her composition, ”Count On Me” and I believe their ”Alone” composition too.
”Count On Me” has a very uplifting chorus, contributed by her loving father. Yes Mona and Lisa will never be alone. They have hundreds of thousands of supporters the world over!
-
I think you could be correct there Thomas. If so, it means she is going to die five minutes before Mona. Now that would be awesome. I could not imagine the two of them apart and no doubt they would miss each other terribly, if that was ever the case.
-
I’ve asked questions about DVDs of unreleased videos of earlier covers they’ve done and it seems there can be copyright issues sometimes. It’s a different arrangement with YouTube videos.
A DVD of their final Cavern Club concert would be awesome though.
