Amazing.

I really can't stand those people that post "First" in Forum.

Second!

This "content not working" malarky is getting a bit frequent...

Luckily it is working on YouTube

@Captain Daddy Puppy:

You have to stand on your left leg, hop continuously and sing I Am the Walrus backwards while hitting the play button to get the video.

Hope this helps.

Brilliant.

The A-Team theme sounds good even when Skiffled. MOvies still poo though.

One of the two things missing from The A-Team movie. The theme (using only the first seven notes doesn't count) and the van. Crushed after 20 minutes never to return.............enjoyable enough but a definite missed opportunity.

@#8

Speaking of missed oppurtunities they should have made Street Hawk into a movie. I loved that show when I was kid, a lot better than BA and co.

Awesome...now if that was the version of the soundtrack to the new movie, I might be persuaded to go and see it!
Amazing how you made it sound like a theme to a Western TV show!

That was Brilliant Mark. shame about the movie!

Bring back National Service.

@ #9
Aaah Street Hawk slowly we journey back to a happier time lol. I don't remember much about it but I remember the computer game.
They don't make them like that anymore.

If you're ending requests, it would be awful to hear the end titles of Blade Runner on a double bass :)

Never mind Street Hawk, if ever there was a Saturday afternoon progremme begging to be turned into a movie, surely it is Airwolf.

great. can u skiffle "Mission Impossible"?

@Trevor. Was that directed at me? I watched it on youtube :( and it is amazing.

@UncleBalsamic - no. "Amazing" is fine.
You get a lot of "First"s on AICN - and it's worse when the "First" post isn't even first.
Hence "Second", in a post-modern-ironic way.
(And I was dreading it being third if I mistimed it)

Nineteenth!

The A team theme tune was my ringtone for the past 6 years. Now Ive had to change my ringtone due to people assuming its a tribute to the new movie. While I pity the fools for such an assumption, I cant be seen to associate myself with that film.

Hope the festival goes well.

I'd love to hear "End Of A Dream", the climactic action cue from Jerry Goldsmith's Total Recall score. Mixed-meter planetary apocalypse music played by a skiffle ensemble. :)

@Trevor ;)

Yes, yes, very nice Doc - now how about a 10 min. + response to "A Hitchcock In My Attic"...?

If this was on Facebook I would "Like" it.

Mark just what is the Greatest Skiffle Movie ever made?

The film is pretty much pants......But my expectations were not that high.....However Dr K if you and the band had played whilst parachuting into the festival....I'd have paid good money to see that...:-)Looking cool Dr K ..Looking cool....

I haven't seen the film, but from what I understand it's quite a departure from the TV series in that in that old series, no-one ever dies - not even the bad guys. In fact they'd make a point of showing you that no-one died, by showing you the bad guy get up and walk away. For me this is pretty fundamental to what the A-Team was, and no matter how much this new spin on it looks like the original on the surface, it just looks to me like another generic action-adventure, with a black van in it.

A-Team, Knight Rider were creatures of the 80's; they had a certain innocence. By just trying to splice them into 2010 you end up ruining them both, turning them into bland, indistinct generics with none of their original character or charm. What I'm saying is, copying and pasting these shows into today's fast-paced, cynical cybernetic age just doesn't work.

PS: Great rendition, fellas. Though I'm still not a skiffle fan.

Funny, I've never seen Hunter S. Thompson and The Dodge Brothers' lead guitarist in the same room...

Dodge brothers wonderful, as its a liam neeson film who's driving the combi bus?

SWEET! :)

Excellent performance. Now I don't have to bother watching the film. Thanks for that.

I second Kubrick and Scott's suggestion of a version of the Blade Runner end credits. Never has a score been more crying out for a skiffle reworking than that.

Probably my favourite yet. I'm sure The A-Team movie is terrible. The show was pretty bad but at least it had Mr. T. What the hell has this film got?

Only just realised my hideous mistake - I meant it would have been AWESOME to hear the end titles of Blade Runner on the double bass. So sorry :S

@ I_am_I, I totally agree. The 80s has a far more charming family-friendly form of escapism than today, where escapism translates to 3 hours of cgi explosions, adverts and shots of sweaty girls' arses.

Of course, the 80s and the 00s were both dreadful decades, but at least the 80s had Blue Velvet and the Pixies.

This comment was removed because the moderators found it broke the house rules. Explain.

Great sounds!

Poor old Kermode has been out quiffed though.

39th

I love it when a band plays together...

awesome playing there fellas! - wiked double bass!
nice one daddio

Nice slapping, Mark! Take it home now!

The A-Team film was really good! Didn't take itself too seriously, plenty of action, some funny lines. Perfectly acceptable.

When The Spirit came out, I decided to ignore all of the bad press and bring a couple of friends to see it, because I thought it would be cool. Oddly, the film was awful and made me want to puke. So we all decided to catch the beginning of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, which was probably just as awful as The Spirit, but more of a slow burn.
But NEITHER of those films lack as many redeeming values as The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. One of the worst films of the year. I thought that the end of the world was signaled by the rise of Crocks. Well if that wasn't it, then the status of this godawful series is most definitely a sign of the apocalypse.

Going against the tide here, but I enjoyed the new A-TEAM film. Pure cheese yes, but so was the 80's TV series!!!

That guitar sounds lovely! Great work.

A bit of a contradiction there, Dr Kermode. What with the fake playing of that Cello.
