The Gang of Four (simplified Chinese: ???; traditional Chinese: ???; pinyin: Sìrén b?ng) was the name given to a political faction composed of four Chinese Communist Party officials. They came to prominence during the Cultural Revolution (1966-76) and were subsequently charged with a series of treasonous crimes. The members consisted of Mao Zedong's last wife Jiang Qing, the leading figure of the group, and her close associates Zhang Chunqiao, Yao Wenyuan, and Wang Hongwen.

The little rascals eh folks? No wonder old Chairman Mao slung em all in chokey. Tsk.

A mate of mine was a Chinese dissident you know? I went to visit him in the nick once. Trouble was, half an hour later I wanted to visit him again.

Absolutely true that is, a geezer down the takeaway told me.

That was my little swansong gag btw. See what I just did there?

I opened on this thread because I thought you were referring to the band of the same name, which would have been such an incredible coincidence, as I have been playing their back catalogue for a fortnight now.

Let that be a salutory and hard learned lesson to you then Mr Woods. Surely you've born witness to my output long enough to know that it's a constant source of bitter disappointment

No twas merely a little affectionate dig at the four sparkling heroes who dubbed me a racist and rather bravely went behind my Caucasian back and told the editor in chief of my infamy.

The gentle xenophobic gag at the end was an afterthought and all my own work, in case anybody wishes to consider leagal redress.

Oh, I am sorry about that. You must have been really upset.

There's a lot to be said for gentleness.

Some would even say it is what makes you a gentleman.


Anyone listened to the Gang Of Four?

What?

You mean The Beatles?

Occasionally. I mean - it's not like you have a choice.

Back in the day, there was a "band" named the Fugs. Their biggest hit was "I feel like homemade shit."

I bought that album and played it on air at my radidio station Dubya Tea Arf Arf in central Floridia.

Got into big trouble with the EffSee of See too.

But that was nothing like when I got rode out of Salt Lake City on a rail after telling my listeners that Joseph Smith and Brigham Young were child molestersesess.

Some people have no sense of humor.
