Dennis Diken's avatar View Dennis Diken's profile Favoriting

Step into Denny’s Den to give yourself a little lift as you make your way through the busy day. Or take a break and make the world go away for a while. Dig on platters a-plenty, from The Chantels to Del Shannon, The Small Faces to Jimmy Reed. And so much more. Maybe some Basie and Kenton? Relax. You’ve earned it!

Short for "Barrigton Womble"

John Halsey (a really good drummer and member of the band Patto with "fifth Rutle" Ollie Halsall) played drums on Lou Reed's Transformel album.

Anyone here watch "Inspector George Gently" series on Acorn or BritBox or whichever? His underling, Sgt. Bacchus (portrayed by Lee Ingleby) is very Eric Idlesque.
