The Kinks, Waterloo Sunset

I was just internet stalking (this is what I call looking people up on the internetz) Terence Stamp and saw this: “The off-screen romance of Stamp and Julie Christie while they were filming Far from the Madding Crowd (1967) inspired The Kinks’ hit, “Waterloo Sunset” - hence the line “Terry met Julie”.” Ray Davies says it’s not true but Ray Davies is a grumpy old liar (met him once in Cleveland, remember).

He went on a 10 year sabbatical to India after Jean Shrimpton left him. Sort of heartbreaking.

All this to proclaim my love for Terence Stamp as of today. Some people just get better as they age.
