H.G. has got a squeaky little voice and an interesting accent.

Didn’t hinder him from being popular with the womenfolk, from what I understand.

Yes I was interested in his accent, fascinating to hear someone who was a young man in the 1880s. I'm assuming this wasn't a posh accent though - there's a recording of Virginia Woolf somewhere on YouTube and her accent is extraordinary!

Yes, it's definitely a lower class accent - that was part of his attraction to all those posh women he bedded, bit of rough trade.

Yes, compare and contrast:

I've never even noticed that H.G. and Orson have the same (phonetic) last name.

wowwww at the Woolf recording. don't know what i expected her to sound like but it was never *that*.

not being able to see the photo means I can't tell if I don't know who's in it

Vincent Price, some woman, Ringo Starr.

Carrie Fisher

sounds good!

I thought it might be Carrie Fisher but didn't think it looked enough like her.

And I IDed Ringo right away but then thought "Maybe that's Al Pacino..."

I remember seeing that TV movie in the original 1978 broadcast when I just had learned Ringo was a Beatle

^^The Special

have not watched, but man, 1978 would have been a rough time for a Ringo TV special. i guess someone thought it might help him mount a comeback.

May have led straight to that starring role in Caveman

Is that really Manzarek tho?

Probably not. It was taken at Jarry Park in Montreal.

LOL Ray Manzarek.

I’m sure Jim did one of his usual sycophantic rants: “Phil, you were so great at Live Aid, that was so cool, that was so awesome!”

lol @ Kenny G & Miles

that was a good episode xp, first season, great use of crockett’s theme at the end

Say what you want about Kenny G, but in his defense, he is a Miles fan.

I'm pretty sure Miles is actually wearing some of Kenny G's hair.

Someone has some free time on their hands!

one love to the originators *waves glowstick*

this isn't a photo, but what I'm picturing in my mind is pretty good:

Actor Ed O'Neill, who played TV sitcom schlub "Al Bundy" and the former pro wrestler known as King Kong Bundy

Where's Ted? I remember Ed O'Neill.

Ah well, they'll never get the chance now to meet in person, but the Twitter friendship between Ice T and John Challis ('Only Fools and Horses') still made me happy.

I just heard John passed away.. He somehow became a Twitter friend.. I’m very sad. Although I never met him in person.. Internet friends can become close.. RIP https://t.co/OubOefVLfr

Nice timing (for me); only this weekend did I learn that Page played on and produced Nico's 1965 debut single.
