The Teardrop Explodes

**The Teardrop Explodes** (also known as Teardrop Explodes) were a British post-punk/neo-psychedelic band formed in Liverpool in 1978. The group was started by Julian Cope, singer and bass player, together with Gary "Rocky" Dwyer who became the group's drummer, later recruiting Paul Simpson on keyboards and Mick Finkler on guitar, all coming from various bands active on the fervent late-70s Liverpool music scene.

The group released their debut single Sleeping Gas in February 1979, on Liverpool's Zoo records with keyboard player Paul Simpson leaving soon afterwards, later replaced by David Balfe who had been co-managing the band. A second single Bouncing Babies released in the summer, gained further interest on the indie scene, and the group recorded their first Peel session in October. A third single Treason (It's Just a Story) was released in early 1980 on Zoo, again gaining much patronage from John Peel. Their debut album Kilimanjaro was released in October 1980. tensions during the recording sessions over the summer meant that guitarist Finkler left, replaced by Alan Gill. His tenure was short-lived, however, and he was in turn replaced by Troy Tate.

A new single released form the album, When I Dream, gained radio paly although like its predecessors failed to make the Top 40 in the UK. The album itself reached no.35 in the charts upon its released. Fortunes changed for the Teardrops however in early 1981 with the release in January of a brand new single, not on the album, entitled Reward. Despite modest chart beginnings, the single eventually reached no.6 in March, giving the band their commercial breakthrough.

SU-76M

The **SU-76** (Samokhodnaya Ustanovka 76) was a Soviet self-propelled gun used during and after World War II. The SU-76 was based on a lengthened and widened version of the T-70 light tank chassis. Its simple construction made it the second most produced Soviet armoured vehicle of World War II, after the T-34 tank.

Crews liked the vehicle for its simplicity, reliability, and ease of use. However, the steering was also sometimes regarded as difficult, leading crews to also refer to the vehicle as suka (Russian: сука; "bitch") or suchka (Russian: сучка; "little bitch"). It was also nicknamed Golozhopiy Ferdinand (Russian: Голожопый Фердинанд; "bare-arsed Ferdinand") due to its very light armor and somewhat similar silhouette, when compared to the Germans' heavy Ferdinand/Elefant casemate tank destroyer of some 65 tonnes in weight.

Tomorrow Never Knows

**Tomorrow Never Knows** is the title of a song recorded by The Beatles, initially released as the final track on the group's Revolver album in 1966. It was written primarily by John Lennon although officially credited, like the majority of the group's compositions, to Lennon–McCartney.

The track is notable mainly for its use of studio recording techniques producing "psychedelic" effects, and for its repetitive drum and bass pattern. For the lyrics, Lennon is said to have drawn heavily on his experience with hallucinatory drugs. The recording is also said to be one of the first to use "sampling" techniques, ie. taking short 'samples' of sounds and using and repeating them using "tape loops" at various tones and speeds. The harmonic structure of the song is derived from Indian music. George Harrison plays both sitar and tambura. Lennon's vocal is also given special electronic treatment, using an amplified speaker cabinet usually used for a Hammond organ.

## Release

The track was released on side two, track 7, the closing track, on *Revolver*, released in August 1966. Studio out-takes appear on Anthology 2 (1996) while mixes in both stereo and mono appear on the 2022 re-issue of Revolver.

The song also features on the *Love* album (2006) mixed with the Harrison composition Within You Without You.

## Cover versions

notable cover versions of Tomorrow Never Knows include:

* Phil Collins - on *Face Value* (1981) - intended as a homage to the recently deceased Lennon.
* Monsoon - 7"/12" released in October 1982 as the group's third single.[1] Their previous single was entitled Shakthi (the Meaning of Within), a phrase which appears in the lyrics to Tomorrow Never Knows.

extensive, but the 4th least populous, and the 4th most sparsely populated of the 50 U.S. states. North Dakota was admitted as the 39th state to the Union on November 2, 1889. The state capital is Bismarck, and the largest city is Fargo.

North Dakota weathered the Great Recession of the early 21st century with a boom in natural resources, particularly a boom in oil extraction from the Bakken formation, which lies beneath the northwestern part of the state.[5] The development drove strong job and population growth, and low unemployment.

North Dakota is known for its sparsely populated rural landscape, for its long winters that on colder days produce beautiful sun dogs, and for being the childhood home of Lawrence Welk.

Jefferson

U.S. state that spans the contiguous, mostly rural area of southern Oregon and northern California,

where several attempts to separate from Oregon and California, respectively, have taken place.

This region on the Pacific Coast is the most famous of several that have sought to adopt the name of Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States. Jefferson, who sent the Lewis and Clark expedition into the Pacific Northwest in 1803, envisioned the establishment of an independent nation in the western portion of North America that he dubbed the "Republic of the Pacific";[1] hence, the association of his name with regional autonomy. The independence movement, rather than statehood, is known as Cascadia.

The name "Jefferson" has also been used for other proposed states: the name was proposed in the 19th century for Jefferson Territory(roughly modern Colorado), as well as in 1915 in a bill in the Texas legislature for a proposed state that would be created from the Texas Panhandle region.

Cromwell Mk VIII

The **Cromwell tank**, officially Tank, Cruiser, Mk VIII, Cromwell (A27M), was one of the series of cruiser tanks fielded by Britain in the Second World War. Named after the English Civil War leader Oliver Cromwell, the Cromwell was the first tank put into service by the British to combine high speed from a powerful and reliable engine (the Rolls-Royce Meteor), and reasonable armour. However the originally proposed dual-purpose high velocity gun could not be fitted in the turret and the medium velocity dual purpose gun fitted proved inadequate. An improved version with a high velocity gun became the Comet tank.

Battle of Kursk (German)

The **Battle of Kursk : Prokhorovka** is the fifth Battle in the German Campaign.

## Briefing

* Occupy the two villages to the east to strengthen our front line
* Occupy the village to the northwest
* When our flanks are secured, attack and occupy Prokhorovka

## Preface

Code-named Operation Citadel, the German offensive at Kursk began in July 1943. The goal was to encircle and cut off the Russian forces near the town in a salient that was 160 kilometers deep westward. The operation was a gigantic pincer movement where the 9th Army would break through the northern front, and 4th Panzer Army would do the same in the South. The attack was delayed, and the Russians had ample time to build multiple lines of defenses strengthened by trenches, mine-fields, and anti-tank strong points. This eventually stopped the Germans in the northern sector. On 12 July, on the southern front, the Russians counterattacked near Prokhorovka with five tank brigades, which led to the largest tank battle in the war. Both sides lost a lot of tanks and infantry, and were forced to withdraw and reinforce, but the attackers did not have the reserves to bolster their ranks. Thus, the offensive was called off and Germany lost the initiative for the rest of the war.

Top of the Pops: The Story of 1987

BBC Four documentary first broadcast on 04 January 2019.

Watch here.

* 1987 – a year marked by triumph and disaster. As Mrs Thatcher secured a third term as PM, the Channel Tunnel began construction and Wall Street’s movie representative Gordon Gecko purred ‘Greed is good’ – Britain was battered by the Great Storm, despaired at Black Monday and was horrified by the sinking of The Herald of Free Enterprise and the King’s Cross fire.
* And while epic events unfolded in the outside world, the *Top of the Pops* studio provided a haven for those who wanted to escape. With a new groundbreaking twin show broadcast from the USA, *Top of the Pops* could sidestep the videos of MTV and bring the very biggest names to UK audiences. In Television Centre, Stock, Aitken and Waterman provided the floor-fillers as hip-hop and rap made their mark on the chart along with home-grown house. From the rock aristocracy to pure pop hits and the irresistible new funk grooves, the youth could pick their own soundtrack and pump up the volume.
* Terence Trent D’Arby, Curiosity Killed the Cat, PWL stablemates Rick Astley and Kim Appleby, Andy Bell, Carol Decker and Belinda Carlisle lead us through a smorgasbord year in music.

Operation Market Garden

**Operation Market Garden: Arnhem Bridge** is the fourth Battle in the Allied Campaign.

## Preface

With British plans to end the war by Christmas 1944, Operation Market Garden's goal was to open up a way into Germany's industrial heart through the Netherlands, utilizing several strategically key bridges over the Rhine that would be taken by Allied Airborne divisions in a swift strike, forming a corridor. It was the greatest airborne operation to date. The operation was started on 17 September 1944, and initially, several objectives between Eindhoven and Nijmegen were captured, but soon the Allied attack and the paratroopers behind enemy lines got bogged down by a fast enemy response. German forces managed to sabotage several bridges to halt Allied advance, and by 25 September, the momentum was lost, and the offensive stopped. Before their evacuation, British forces at the last intact bridge — the road bridge at Arnhem — held their position heroically against an overwhelming force after the nearby rail bridge and pontoon bridge were disabled.
