Talk:Obs-Tweedle
How can 'Tweedle' be an abbreviation for 'sound'? Ro Thorpe 01:44, 2 August 2009 (UTC)

So you'll correct the spelling mistake yourself then? English spellings/Catalogs/Retro E. ;-);-) Ro Thorpe 15:19, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
Here is a message that has just come in to the Constabulary:
(Hmmm, there are some embedded JPG shots, I guess) that don't transfer over. How can I get them here? Evidently they are to illustrate whatever corrections he says should be made. Help, anyone? Hayford Peirce 19:03, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
The article on Obs-Tweedle, despite being of great interest, is incorrect. I am interested in helping correct some errors.
Noddy Holder was not the roadie for Obs-Tweedle. He acted as a roadie for a couple of months at the beginning of 1966, for Plants earlier group, Listen.
Mid February 1966, Noddy Holder is looking for a band.
From March 1966 until 1992 he was never out of work and no longer available to drive Plant around.
Despite Plant's Q mag memories, "... and that" he says with an audible sigh, "Is when I met Pagey."
Hell No! When they played Walsall in Aprill 1966, Plant had to arrange his own transport cos Holder was coming home from Newcastle in 'Betsy'. Maybe Holder's Dad drove Listen that night? ;-)
25th November 1966, Plant is calling himself Rob3ert Lee at this time. The '3' is silent, apparently?
The 'N Betweens and Listen both released the same song in the same week.
Hari-Kari featured Billy Bonham on keyboards while Obs-Tweedle featured Plant on vocals.
The 'N Betweens featured Noddy Holder and the rest of Slade, of course.
Mickey Parker ;-)

- You censor my post but include a post with the word 'sodomy'? Really.... Mickey Parker if you're reading this, my information came from Bill Bonham himself. Meg Ireland 22:10, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
- Another thing. This article is about Obs-Tweedle. It's not about Listen which came *way before* Obs-Tweedle and an entirely different band (even before Band of Joy in fact ie. what has the events of 1966 got to do with a band that existed only in 1968), and I make no claim in the article that Noddy Holder is driving around Robert Plant after 1968. Obs-Tweedle existed less than 6 months, so I have no idea why you wish to include information that's not really relevant to the article. "25th November 1966, Plant is calling himself Rob3ert Lee at this time. The '3' is silent, apparently?" - what has that got to do with a band in 1968 separate from Robert's solo career? PS. 'N Betweens no longer existed in 1968, so what does that have to do with this band? Meg Ireland 22:15, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
- And one more thing. The Plant quote is referenced. I see no links or references made which contradicts what Plant said. Meg Ireland 22:21, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
