Cuando vi el afoto que se observa a la izquierda de estas letras en uno de los lados de la galaxia que ahora no estoy seguro de cuál era porque me hago la pisha un lío con la derecha y la izquierda, me quedé más pasmao que Mariano al ver que la crisis la rentabiliza Rodríguez y él se queda compuesta y sin las barbas remojás.| Elvis he's a hero he's a superstar And I hear that Paul McCartney drives a Rolls Royce car And Dylan sings for millions And I just sing for free Oh everybody's makin' it big but me Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me Everybody's makin' it big but me Neil Diamond sings for diamonds And here's ole rhinestone me Oh everybody's makin' it big but me | Well I hear that Alice Cooper's got a foxy chick To wipe off his snake, and keep him rich And Elton John's got two fine ladies And Doctor John's got three And I'm still seein' them same old sleezoes, that I used to see Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me Yeah everybody's makin' it big but me I've got charisma And personality Oh how come everybody's makin' it big but me? |

(I don't see nothing wrong with it Ray) Well I paint my face with glitter Just like Bowie does And I wear the same mascara That Mick Jagger does And I even put some lipstick on But that just hurt my dad and mom And everybody's makin' it big but me | Oh, everybody's makin' it big but me Yeah everybody's makin' it big but me They got groupies for their bands And all I got is my right hand And everybody's makin' it big but me Everybody's makin' it, makin' it, makin' it Everybody's makin' it big...... |
He has worked with Chris Rea, The Eric Delaney Band, Back Door (of which he was co-founder), Alexis Korner, Whitesnake, Jon Lord, Jan Hammer, Paul Butterfield, The Spencer Davis Group, Pete York, and The Electric Blues Duo, as well as with Ian "Stu" Stewart's boogie-woogie band, Rocket 88. Hodgkinson is as of 2007, one fifth (with Zoot Money, Maggie Bell, Miller Anderson and Colin Allen) of The British Blues Quintet.Hodgkinson is a musician who has developed a bass technique which can replace both lead and rhythm guitar if necessary, (as exemplified by his work with the jazz-rock trio, Back Door - line-up: saxophone, bass, drums). A typical gig involving Hodgkinson will be a solo slot in which he will render a bass and vocals only rendition of a classic blues song, a particular favourite being his take on Jesse Fuller's, "San Francisco Bay Blues". This track, amongst others was included in his solo album, The Bottom Line, issued in 1998. A release that is, in effect, an entire album of bass solos. In 2008 the Colin Hodgkinson Band released Back Door Too!, recorded with Rod Mason (sax) and Paul Robinson (drums) a mixture of new material and old Back Door numbers.
Los Ramones fueron uno de los grandes símbolos de rebeldía de finales de los setenta. Algunos éramos muy jóvenes y no nos sentíamos del todo identificados con la música que se llevaba por entonces. Era una música cansina, derivaba hacia el experimentalismo vanguardista autocomplaciente y estaba inspirada por el buenrrollismo nutrido del consumo constante de hachís. Recuerdo perfectamente haber escuchado las primeras canciones de los Ramones, y casi inmediatamente después las de Blondie, como si de pronto alguien hubieran abierto un ventanal en una habitación llena del decadente aroma de la marihuana y entrara en tromba un vendaval de alegría, de ganas de vivir y de rebeldía juvenil intacta.Así fue. Y, para asegurarme de que no se olvide, recordaré cuando les ví en Montjuich, en la fiesta de Treball (vulgo la típica fiesta del partido comunista local) cantando "I don't like politics. I don't like communists"
