Len Cnut Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 My mother used to know pete townsend in the 80,s. She's got a card at home congratulating her on the birth of me. I've told this story before but fuck it. He was making the life house album or some such and my mum used to go to his studio with her mate Karen. Shit my mum was a groupie. I wonder what my old man made of that I'm ask him later if he reckons I've got a big nose lol.Did she ever meet Moonie?I read it in a paper recently. Morning Glory is one of those albums that is always going to sell like Appetite, Nevermind or Thriller. Also he has continuous royalties whenever that Rock and Roll shit is played at football events or wherever. I see no reason to doubt the figure although It might have been for both of them things. Put simply, Morning Glory is always going to make him a rich man even though his career dried up a long time ago.Surely if glitter gets a quarter of a mil off a tiny snippet bullshit sample then the actual authors would be getting silly money for it surely? Liam certainly wouldnt be whingeing over a paternity case. I dont buy it myself but hey, who knows, i aint no kind of numbers man.Just Townsend apparently. I might be overstating it a bit to say she knew him, it was just a brief period of time really of somehow being in an overlapping circle of friends.What was your old dear doing that she was hob-nobbing with rockstars? I mean like work-wise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean like work-wise.She used to work in a video shop lol. I have no fucking clue how it all came about. It's all linked in with this mate of hers Sharon. Sharon had a kid who had down syndrome who used to try and lift up cars in the street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalsh327 Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 (edited) I guess he's doing a reissue project for his solo albums and made a deal with Spotify because they posted a bunch of the albums up....except Lifehouse Chronicles, but you do get Scoop 1-3.

dalsh327 Posted September 7, 2015 Share Posted September 7, 2015 Pete wrote so many songs about people he knew (platonic and spiritual as well as physically) that I wouldn't be surprised if he wrote a song about your mom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
