same here! anyone know?

 

[Wilts]

Pump Up The Volume was a quality tune. Any late 80s dance bods would know!

 

[The Laughing Bluebird]

Pump Up The Volume was a quality tune.

I think the phrase 'poor quality tune' would've been more appropriate.

The British number one throughout March 1967 was the magnificent 'Release Me', sung by the internationally popular cabaret entertainer Engelbert Humperdinck.

What a song. What a singer.

PS: Wilts - my ticket for the 16th arrived on Friday. I love the Madejski Stadium. Short journey, great atmosphere and a guaranteed 3 points!
