Hi Geedee,

I like their early recordings. Not into the new stuff. They are still going!

Re: The Good Music Thread
 

Same here... I think the first track I heard was "Follow the leader".... brilliant! The new stuff sounds a bit, er, vapid!

Re: The Good Music Thread
 

Ashamed to say I've just discovered BBC Radio 6 on TuneIn Radio :o

They play some purdy good music!

Not really a big fan of the Beatles but there's no denying they knocked out some good tunes!

Any song that mentions a sausage is just fab. :thumbup:

Oh, it's rather long. :(

Youth stops here.

Re: The Good Music Thread
 

Charlie Teagarden, Cutty Cutsall, Ray Baduc, Jimmy Dorsey - the original Dorseyland Jazz Band.

What this thread needs is a Faroe Isles wedding ballad.

Re: The Good Music Thread
 

Loved that Faroe Isles wedding ballad. Beautiful.

Anyway, this may well be the thread killer! A lot of people called this lot a band for 14 year old girls. I loved 'em! And I'm a bloke! Read the lyrics and see if you think they're that poofy ;) Oh, doesn't Sting look like Malcolm McDowell!??



Another suburban family morning
Grandmother screaming at the wall
We have to shout above the din of our Rice Crispies
We can't hear anything at all
Mother chants her litany of boredom and frustration
But we know all her suicides are fake
Daddy only stares into the distance
There's only so much more that he can take
Many miles away
Something crawls from the slime
At the bottom of a dark Scottish lake

Another industrial ugly morning
The factory belches filth into the sky
He walks unhindered through the picket lines today
He doesn't think to wonder why
The secretaries pout and preen like
cheap tarts in a red light street
But all he ever thinks to do is watch
And every single meeting with his so-called superior
Is a humiliating kick in the crotch
Many miles away
Something crawls to the surface
Of a dark Scottish lake

Another working day has ended
Only the rush hour hell to face
Packed like lemmings into shiny metal boxes
Contestants in a suicidal race
Daddy grips the wheel and stares alone into the distance
He knows that something somewhere has to break
He sees the family home now looming in the headlights
The pain upstairs that makes his eyeballs ache
Many miles away
There's a shadow on the door
Of a cottage on the shore
Of a dark Scottish lake
Many miles away, many miles away

:goodpost:

Me & my brother practically wore that LP out. I also listened to Outlandos d'Amour and Ghost in the Machine a lot too. Malcom McDowell ? It has to be the film "If.... " even above Clockwork Orange

I have a feeling that our music collections are remarkably similar :thumbup:

Re: The Good Music Thread
 

Don't touch me there

Re: The Good Music Thread
 

Sounds like it! :thumbup:

"Prime Time" was my favourite track, hadn't heard the one you posted.... wonder what happened to them?

Re: The Good Music Thread
 

Lets just get it on it. End of.
