Great posts you guys, what a tragedy that was.. Beatles and Lennon songs were all in the top 5,
I was Chéfing at the time at a posh club, and was prepping for a Christmas party for a company, barmaid came in the kitchen and told me.. utter shock.
Soon as the dinner was done, we closed the Club, all staff went to The Arriba Club further up the road.. Just us and their staff. We got absolutely hammered and blasted Beatles tunes thru' the system, around 1:am some cab drivers came in.. parked up for the night and also hit the top shelf. The whole city was deserted... such was the severity of his slaying.
Ended up in a Tandoori playing cards til' 6:am, drinking Brandy Alexander's.
( first time I'd experienced world Sorrow.)
