"Look more stoned!" were director Michelangelo Antonioni's only instructions to The Yardbirds audience which includes BPF grooving to Beck and Page throttling Stroll On spendidly, Jeff smashing a cheapie guitar as Jimmy's sideburns dream of greater things. "Ten quid a day to look stoned and listen to The Yardbirds" is how BP remembers it. Stars David Hemmings, Vanessa Redgrave, Sarah Miles and Jane Birkin.
'Headrush' [2005].
BPF plays Blowback - the weed and wisdom dispencing guru - in this hilarious cult drugs, gangsters and love story comedy caper written and directed by Shimmy Marcus. BP's appearance in the film, sitting in a huge egg in his womb room dressed in a clowd of Jazz Woodbine smoke as an equally-naked girl splashes paint everywhere, happily disconcerted some cinema audiences. Also stars Steven Berkof as the psychotic bastard The Uncle and Huey Morgan from The Fun Lovin' Criminals as the cross-dressing coke dealer The Yank.

From The BP Fallon Archive, we proudly present BP's never-before-broadcast 1990 conversation with the then-82 year old Quentin Crisp. Throughout, this ahead-of-his-time writer, actor, social catalyst and brilliantly unique man waxes philisophical about America, fame, sex, style, dust and more. "One of the most impressive people I've ever met" says BP Fallon, who's met a few.
Quentin Crisp RIP

Hi Beep, Thanks for adding me as a friend on myspace. I've been a big Marc Bolan fan since 1972 and have been writing songs and poetry since childhood. At present I am playing bass in a covers band, recording a new album and working on some poetry. I hope that you may find time to listen to some of my material. Best wishes. Will.
