‘You Know My Name’ With the tragic suicide of Chris Cornell, here’s ‘You Know My Name’ from Casino Royale. I remember him more for this than Audioslave or Soundgarden.

The alternative looks of Cobra 11 Dieter and Hotte aren’t too sure about dressing for an undercover job, in ‘Der Joker’ (November 19, 1998); Dieter and Hotte are heading for a workout, in ‘Tod eines Reporters’ (March 13, 2003); Semir buys from Wigs ’R’ Us, in ‘Im Angesicht des Todes’ (September 14, 2006, screen cap by danielle-carey), and Semir and Ben are pretty in pink in an official still photo from ‘Höher, schneller, weiter!’ (March 24, 2011).

There is no need for the word “Vinyl” in the shop’s name. “Heaven” just about describes any good record shop for me. Sadly, they are disappearing. It’s depressing.
By the way, Life on Mars is my favorite show to have come out in the last 10 years.

Vinyl Maybe the ‘Vinyl’ refers to the computer-done vinyl-cut lettering on the signage. Which would not have existed in 1973. The words ‘Record Shop’ are in ITC Bauhaus, from 1975. I am reading too much into this. And I love Life on Mars.

Ralph Brown guest-stars on Life on Mars I remember this scene. This is right after DCI Frank Morgan (Ralph Brown) tells Sam, ‘So there I am, in Sri Lanka, formerly Ceylon, at about 3 o’clock in the morning, looking for one thousand brown M&Ms to fill a brandy glass, or Ozzy wouldn’t go on stage that night. So, Jeff Beck pops his head ’round the door, and mentions there’s a little sweets shop on the edge of town. So, we go. And, it’s closed. So there’s me, and Keith Moon, and David Crosby, breaking into that little sweets shop, eh. Well, instead of a guard dog, they’ve got this bloody great big Bengal tiger. I managed to take out the tiger with a can of mace, but the shopowner and his son—that’s a different story altogether. I had to beat them to death with their own shoes. Nasty business, really. But, sure enough, I got the M&Ms, and Ozzy went on stage and did a great show.’
