OK, the morning of our lives got to number 20 but this is his only actual 'hit' and it is indeed lovely.

Are the two smirking weasels who called me out still smirking, or do I need to add more loveliness?

Great tune, but not even their biggest UK hit. This made the top 5 in 1969:

And this also made the top 40 before becoming the test match theme:

If [MENTION=20527]studio150[/MENTION] wants to include a load of ropey Joe Meek bollocks as exemplars of hits then a charter at 97 surely deserves inclusion as a hit. Bloody class, though. Even if I am digressing. Ahem.

I just fancied posting roadrunner, to be fair. I admit hypocrisy.

I think HWT will struggle on this thread, he only posts fecking obscure stuff most of us have never heard of, so one hit wonders will pose him BIG problems

He'd be alright if the thread was entitled "No hits electronica no marks"

Seen this LEGEND twice, but this is his only 'hit'....(please let's not anyone post I put a spell on you FFS )

Edit, I saw him do this with a string quarter at Mount Ephraim (Canterbury Festival) some years back.

None at all. Plenty posted on here completely NOT one hit wonders. FFS.

In case anyone has missed this, this was a hit and it was a single hit for the man.
