Rest in Peace, Vera.
We're trying to build a monument to show that we were here
It won't be visible through the air
And there won't be any shade to cool the monument to prove that we were here. - Gene Parsons, 1973
Two versions of a great period song
We walked arm in arm with madness, and every little breeze whispered of the secret love we had for our disease
RIP! 103 I'm impressed
How cool is this?

Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?
Remember how she said that
We would meet again
Some sunny day?

"MARKLAR!"
I had never heard of her before "The Wall", but that song made me go back and do some research on her. I had no idea she was still alive to be honest, but she had a hell of a run.Originally Posted by Jimmy Giant
An impressive lady. First heard of her because of the ending of Dr. Strangelove.
Sad to hear she’s gone now.
Believe it or not...

^ I seriously doubt if she had much knowledge of Mr. Brock beforehand, though. I keep seeing an eventual reaction by Dame Lynn at watching Stacia swing her boobs around the stage in a spectral-cosmic Dance.

Wow. Wish I had known that.
A little trivia: One of her songs, "The Little Boy that Santa Claus Forgot" is playing on the radio in a scene in "Pink Floyd The Wall." It's been a long time since I've seen it but I think it's at the very beginning just before "In The Flesh" kicks in.
When in doubt....
That was just because the acid was kicking in.^ I seriously doubt if she had much knowledge of Mr. Brock beforehand, though. I keep seeing an eventual reaction by Dame Lynn at watching Stacia swing her boobs around the stage in a spectral-cosmic Dance.
I didn't find out who Vera was until a year or so ago and damned if that isn't one of the coolest stories I've heard in a while. Hawkwind Feat. Vera Lynn(ok, not really but you get the pic), who woulda thought that gig was a gonna happen.
