Much neglected band this..... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7d1x5wM1NhY

Absolutely love these boys. I have various 12 inch singles, all 3 cds and various peel sessions. Not to be confused with the resurrected reincarnation :wozza:. My little bro was at the same gig as you. Here are my three favourites: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X7rKAPSzEaA...

Even our nipper loves this. I think that when Mic sings 'walking on both sides' he sounds like Stuey from Family Guy. Mrs Tackle thinks that's bollocks. You decide. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfLcA3M8820

Here is a completely stunning German band who have released eleven albums since the 80s. This early track is one of those that creeps up on you, and you suddenly realise how great it is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FT9lwMakwv8

Here is a brilliant band that were completely overlooked. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qR1SYI0w4I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PCtp6ea3wkQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFR6IefzZGk

I had a massive crush on her in the early 80s. Now she's rather wizened, while I am still relatively lovely. Life can be so unfair.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nCuvTKM04Jk dit: a better upload.

This is absolute pure class. And perfect for the world up in Russia. The intro morphs into something else. Play loud!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cbLL5mekc34

Or if not Duran Duran, then maybe Again Again? :smokin::O

Despite what the video says, this is not an 'album'. It is a four track ep. It has on it, Holger Czukai (of Can), Jah Wobble (Public Image etc) and U2's 'The Edge'. I have the vinyl. Rare as hen's teeth. This ep was a fixture in the small clubs in Vanvouver at the time. In my view it is a...

Something not from Livrpool. The wonderful big audio dynamite. 'Found Sound' was still rare at this time. Holger Czukai was the pioneer. This is a great single. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHTDkJ-bQqM

And this is what happens when you start thinking you really are the next big thing....perhaps. Great hit single though. I can smell wintrgreen ointment and pipe tobacco when I listen to this. Something of the 60s about it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ph57IaYdEsY

OK. More Wylie time. Pete's turn....I personally don't like story of the blues and prefer earlier stuff... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qAXuqWV9bB4

Another from Come in Tokio....stunning https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R5e89Xppnyo

The brother of Pete Wylie - and in my opinion better than Wah. A pure delight. On a scouse roll now... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qHf5cXY0cZQ

OMG I just found this. It it ain't 80s poptastic then I'm Seagull Eater https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRAd_ERThAw

This is more poptastic by Pete Burns 1.1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7v9nRSraGCY

While I love 'you spin me', pearl, I remember dead or alive on Peel when they were post punk. And the vocals. This is mint. Pushing the boundaries of 'pop' I guess... https://youtu.be/_T9mwarq010

Let's not forget the band that should have..... https://youtu.be/JUJARoQ_1y8

What? No Duran Duran?
