I was a massive EJ fan in the early 70’s before he moved to the US and stadium rock. Fantastic voice back then, and very different to other artists at the time.. Taupin lyrics and EJ’s talent - fantastic

Brilliant version of a fabulous Motown song - this is still my fave Faces track though - had to play it after hearing yours

Aussie alternative rock from the 1980's so probably NOT a crowd pleaser...

Get ready for some Krautrock if I have a few more glasses.

Yes Rules of the Thread broken, but what the hell? Lovely and worthy of a listen, Krautrock & Professor Eno have a conversation back in 1977.

Great to hear this again. I’d actually forgotten JW used to use it as a theme tune

Not the best song I have heard today but certainly the strangest.
I give you Miss Delia Derbyshire (her of the original Dr Who theme tune fame) and her cohort with 'Here come the fleas!

Stumbled across this from Daryl’s House. It’s a long thread and may already have been posted?

I have heard a handful of GBV songs, I also watched a documentary on Pollard and GBV that was interesting. He is probably one of the most prolific singer/songwriters going, he seems to knock out hooks and tunes in his sleep. Definitely underrated.

I return after my 4 day Wilso inspired sojourn with Mr Bowie wearing a rather nice suit, wearing it well and blowing the doors off "Rebel Rebel"
