Lyrically that is beyond reproach.

 

Spent a happy hour on YouTube yesterday audio-surfing my way from BA Robertson (my Mum told me he co-wrote Mike and the Mechanics - The Living Years), through Siouxsie and the Banshees through Devo through The Speacials through The Bell Stars (no, really), through The Selecta, through Tears for Fears, through Bow Wow Wow, through The Nips, through the Nipple Erectors, through the Pogues, through to The Clash.

 

It always ends with The Clash.

You got it harvey.

 

Lyrically very interesting that song.

 

I remember singing along to that as a much younger man and thinking how lyrically-sophisticated BA Robertson was "for a Scotch". Times change.

 

I also re-listened to "Kool in the Kaftan" and "Knocked it Off" but they weren't up to the mark so I went surfing as described above...

As there appears to be no appropriate section for Deppo apart from TMS

please would the mods only allow him access to that section. This would ensure

that his disruptive posts don't appear in sensible threads everywhere else.

Grand Funk Railroad - 'Grand Funk'.

 

Can't stop playing 'Inside Looking Out'. What a tune.

Found a live version on YouTube that sounds as tight as the studio version.

I find it hard to believe that a 3 piece can sound like this. The bass playing is absolutely thunderous!

And a happy half hour trying to spot all the stars

 

Thanks Phil.

This is the best music video I've watched in ages.
