My stellar rendition of Papa Was A Rolling Stone at Bearpit karaoke is 100% certain to earn me a record contract. If anyone is out there, hey, I’m all ears (subject to a minimum advance of £1,000,000 and a 10-person entourage).

Legendary drummer Mitch Mitchell is no more. His early years of pills, thrills and schlagzeug finally put his drumsticks to bed. High fives big man, rest in peace.

I’ve deliberately cropped Noel Redding out of this picture as he couldn’t play bass and he’s a moody bitch (read his autobiography for more details).
