    This will make the fourth post without any comment, Eduardo: is this right? I know I wrote a message that hasn’t appeared.
    BTW I was nearly chucked out of a party in 1981 for singing along loudly (and drunkenly) to this. Just thought you’d like to know.

    SW - it rules, that there drum punch!

    sig - did you leave a message on one of the last three days’ ones? I know that you posted on Friday’s ones. I sorta think TPT bridge the gap between the pistols and Adam and the Ants (1981 version, not ‘78 obviously).

    I wanna know who killed Bambi…

    I just took delivery of a fine t-shirt emblazoned with the timeless admonition to “Never Trust A Hippy.”

    thank you all bless you

    (typical: I post on two new artists, and someone producing way out stuff, and I hear nothing! Then I post a hit single, dammit, and get lets of feedback.)

    Not of course, that I am complaing about feedback!!

    Well, we’re really all just a bunch of reactionary old sods. “Call that music? In my day it were all chain mail and shoutiness…”

    Ach, fil, I’m a reactionary old sod m’self, always have been, see latest post on dance music for evidence of this.

    A.J. Don’t drink - but agree with the principle!

    This band featured what had to have been one of the best two presenters the Crystal Maze ever had.
