So one of the pieces in our exhibition is going to be a reproduction of our Edith Grove flat.
Horrendous!
I [N] mean, the whole bloody thing.
Yes, the whole thing.
That's amazing.
It is.
How many rooms were there in the Edith Grove flat?
Oh, how many rooms?
There's the living room.
The living room.
I really, you know,
And it looked out.
There was the bog.
And that was upstairs, because you had to share the bog.
And the bathroom.
And the kitchen.
Which was probably [Eb] off of washing forever.
And um
No, we had one bedroom and one living room.
And the rest was shared.
Sharing you and me.
I tell you [N] what,
I can start again.
We slept.
That's what I can't remember either.
That's what I'm trying to get at.
The only thing you don't remember is the bedroom.
Okay, I remember the living room.
In the living room.
The carpet.
The [Ab] carpet was the most horrendous [B] brown crap that you could ever see.
Yes, horrendous carpet. And smelly.
It needed cleaning.
And then we had a
[Eb] What did we use for a sound system?
Brian's radio ranch.
A radio grove.
Which is like a piece of furniture.
Yeah, it was like hi-fi-ish, you know, big piece of furniture. Radio.
[N] And a radio and a record player.
And we had all our LPs.
Piles of LPs.
And constantly playing them.
Did we have guitar amps in there?
We had [Gb] acoustic.
We used to [E] play in there.
[A] But, I mean,
guitars were thin on the ground.
Brian had a guitar.
Pete [N] had a guitar.
And we had a sofa in the corner.
We had a gas fire, which you would have put shilling in.
Oh, yeah, the meter.
The meter, and if you didn't have a shilling.
And then, how did we used to eat?
I think we always went home.
We went out.
[Eb] There was a [E] chippy on the corner there.
There was a kind of caf that was open all the time.
And there was a Italian joint.
[Gb] There was a [E] fry-up place we used to eat.
You know, weirdly enough,
I can't remember [F] sweeping or eating.
We must have [Gb] done [Cm] that, though.
[Eb] But we must have done a lot of that.
And we had [B] a lot of friends over, though.
Yeah.
We also used [Eb] to do a little shoplifting.
[E] Shoplifting.
I remember shoplifting for food.
[Eb] Used to do that.
I didn't have to do that.
Brian and me were like, yeah, [Ab] under.
I said, where did you get that, Keith?
That's a nice piece of chocolate.
Manna from Berlin.
Where did you get that?
There was a shop in the corner.
And our landlord [Eb] was a Welsh guy.
And he had the dairy on the corner.
And he used to charge us, what was now,
£2.50 a week.
It was an exorbitant.
Well, we used to think it was exorbitant,
but anyway, it was £2.50.
And [Am] then we used to pay him.
And sometimes we didn't have the £2.50.
And [Abm] he used to say,
okay, we'll pay you.
We'll pay us next week.
He did used to let us off sometimes.
And he [N] wasn't the worst kind of lad.
And then, I remember one time
He was from Welsh.
And he said he was going to do it up.
Do you remember this time he said he was
He threw us out, and then he did it up.
And he soft-heartedly let us come back again.
Because we did trash it.
And I didn't notice any difference.
He cleaned that carpet, you mentioned.
Probably, [B] that's about it.
He cleaned that carpet.
When we first moved in there, though,
both Keith and our mums used to do our washing for us.
And they used to bring it up.
That's about sensible.
[Bb] And both Keith and our [F] mums would
somehow get us.
[E] I can't remember how we got there,
but they would deliver somehow clean clothes.
By the British Railway. Yes.
[Eb] But no, the place was absolutely filthy.
And it's still there.
And [Ab] it had a sound system.
And in actual [E] fact, we were sitting on that
bloody carpet there when [Gb] we came up with
the name [Fm] Rollin' Stones.
Because that's where we were made [E]
into
Jazz News, which was like a hit magazine.
Yeah, for jazz [F] people.
And [E] Brian's on the phone.
And we wondered
We were playing at So-and-So
[Gm] on Wednesday, da-da-da.
And they said,
Yeah, but what do you [Em] call
What do you call what you're name?
So we had to agree.
We had Muddy Waters [Ab]
album
[D] on the backside.
And the first track was called Rollin' Stone Blues.
And he knows it.
This is costing us money.
Rollin' Stones.
That's it.
Done.
