1967

Post by djt2006 » Fri Jan 20, 2017 9:40 pm

2017 is going to be a great year for reissues for us old timers.

3 of my favourite albums are 50 this year.
The Doors debut, Sgt Pepper and Something else by the Kinks.

Why hasn't anybody posted "Lost my virginity"? It doesn't come any bigger than that.

My 40th wedding anniversary this year but in 1967 I was still in the 2nd year at Rose Grove.

Scary what a difference 10 years makes when you are older.

Started work in 1967, took articles and trained as a bean counter. Indelible pencils, pounds, shillings, pence and comptometer operators. Different days.

Some classic albums released that year. The Doors debut followed by Strange Days. Between The Buttons by the Rolling Stones, the Velvet Underground And Nico, Are You Experienced: The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Piper At The Gates At Dawn (Pink Floyd) Safe As Milk (Captain Beefheart and his Magic Band), Disraeli Gears by Cream and Forever Changes by Love.

I doubt we'll be saying the same thing in 50 years for todays culture.

Me too, TurfyMoore. Burnley v Fulham, if my memory is still good, was my first game, 30-Sept. I stood near the corner flag at the front of the Cricket Field stand. Later moved up the terraces to the back - and then the CFS was demolished. :(

A young Alan Clarke missed a pen for Fulham. Clarets won 2-0, Frank Casper and Ralph Coates. Still a thrill to type those names and remember the excellent players at Burnley in those days. :D :D

You missed Frank Caspar from your list of "Claret legends." (I'd to consult the Chronicle to confirm scorers).

Just wondering whether that was Caspar's first Burnley goal?

Nope. He scored on his debut against Coventry and I was there to see it :)

1967, the 'summer of love' but I think it missed Rossendale. I'm same age as you, CT, but I didn't do 'O' levels till 1968.
