I championed this band for years but they never made it beyond a cult following. Still touring. Trivia fact, they were apparently Tony Blair’s favourite band when he was PM

Gonna be self indulgent and post two tracks by this under rated band

[MENTION=1200]Harry Wilson's tackle[/MENTION] would definitely have heard any of these songs.

[MENTION=1200]Harry Wilson's tackle[/MENTION] would definitely have heard any of these songs.

This thread is tailor made for him, I’ve hardly heard of any of the songs he posts

This looks like my sort of thread.

But I need to post something that [MENTION=13715]jimhigham[/MENTION] doesn't have on his iPOD....

OK, try this cracker.

Here's another couple of 'kin crackers. I'm being kind and picking only modern music at the moment. Even Icy may like some of this....

Not sure about greatest but I've been enjoying this for 2 years...



Less obscure, this track is great and now a good 20-odd years...

OK, I have posted this band before as I love them. The two boys at the vey start of the vid are Mona and Deb of Drab Majesty

So it is only fair to post a track by the magical Drabs to follow. Happy to say I have seen both of these live

ps I promise to listen to the stuff posted by others and give my thumbs ups later, after my posting binge

Aahhhh, listening to the Drabs. What a ****ing piece of total magic that is.....<sigh>

I've mentioned this before but it's worth mentioning again - I love songs that tell a story and this guy tells a good 'un (you can also tell that his first language isn't English by his perfect grammar - what other pop songs contain the word "whomever"?)

That's really superb.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Another absolute corker

and another even better. Oh my....someone I hope is going to listen to this for the first time and think . . . . FFS! The last band I saw live before lockdown

Mrs T tells me she's met the singer and he's very tall.

Let's go back a bit, well 48 years to be precise. Krautrock at its finest...
