Mornington Crescent, anyone?

Hey, Bo Diddly? (AKA Ellas Otha Bates).


(By the way, you did have a motoring connection in that one of your singles was the only one I own that would play from start to finish on the Philips record player in my much-missed Morris Oxford VI. Every other record I tried in that device would either slow the mechanism to a stop or cause its stylus to skite straight over the surface).

Hey, Bo Diddly? (AKA Ellas Otha Bates).

I was indeed the Late Great Bo Diddly, originator of the Diddley Beat sound. Also known as Ellas Otha Bates or even Ellas McDaniel.

You good Sir, are IT

[JPB]

OK then, I'm J.

Dead, American and not connected to something motoring-related.

michael jackson?

If not ,were you an aviator?

[JPB]

Not Jacko, no, but (clue, 'cos otherwise this could roll on while 2017) I was in the same business as him and his kinfolk.

[zipgun]

Did you die young, like 27 ?

[JPB]

Yes, I died before my time but you're ten years out with your year count.

[zipgun]

Were you murdered ?

[arceye]

Or did you pop your clogs in an icy Lake Monona after a plane crash.

Probably not.....

But how about young Phalon Jones of the Bar-Kays?

Assuming not, did you have anything to do with Punk?

[zipgun]

I suspect hip hop...
