Download The Nasty Angels CD FREE FREE FREE from Prosity Records: Go on go on go on go on - go there and download music for free We are based in Newcastle Upon Tyne (North East England) and are often found hanging around open mic nights............The Earl Grey in Gosforth on a Sunday Evening (A Paul Jackson Spectacular), The Carriage - Jesmond on a Wednesday (this is run by The Runwells - the best band around in the whole universe) and a Sunday (The Dharma Banana - stalwarts of The Newcastle original music scene). If you'd like to hear more of the stuff we knock out, raw songs and the band practising, then have a look at the "music", please do. Bob Dylan is my top artist of all time and no-one will ever top Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisited and Blonde on Blonde (all in one year man !) - not in my opinion anyway. If you have a different opinion you are welcome to it - but you are wrong ! I also love the songs of Morrissey (maybe it's because I'm from Manchester - where the King is Denis Law........) and Shane MacGowan. The Ian Siegal Band (www.iansiegal.com) are the gig I most enjoy these days - ALWAYS get to see them if you get chance. Mark Sandman and Morphine are a constant source of inspiration - love the sound they have. I have been involved with local bands since about 1978 and in all honesty, they have not amounted to very much and I conclude I am a slow learner - however - after a short but enjoyable spell trying to play drums in a friends band I realised that I enjoyed working on original material. I got 3 albums out on Prosity Records (www.prosity.blogspot.com) thanks to the legendary Dan Tindall an all time great pioneer of low cost Hi-Fi and original acoustic music - the music is FREE; some people seem to prefer paying lottsa money for shitbox albums by industry performers - my advice "do like Bob says - when you see a crowd go the other way !" and go to Prosity (well Bob didbn't say that last bit but I'm sure he would approve)

Lyrics
Do you feel lucky ? Do you feel lucky at all ? I am The Bookie I got no limit – big or small I’ll take your money And I want more I’m a whore and you pay me You pay me it all You got a nice little earner 1:15 at Uttoxeter But I know all the numbers And they work in my favour Your big win is overdue Do you feel lucky ? I’m here waiting for you I am The Bookie Are you a high roller ? Or just a steady loser ? Do you like my Jaguar ? Do you like my fat cigar ? I’ll buy you dinner at the dog track But I’m the winner there’s no money back You got the loser’s characteristics I employ the laws of statistics I owe my subsistence To the Laws of Chance It’s no coincidence That you just don’t have a chance I got a countenance divine I count money and it’s all mine It’s easy money Do you feel lucky ? Every day is pay day I am The Bookie Do you feel lucky ? I am The Bookie Do you feel lucky ? I am The Bookie Do you feel lucky ? I am The Bookie Do you feel lucky ? I am The Bookie
