Just wondering what the turnaround has been since their odious lyrical potshot of "I laughed when Lennon got shot". Who's got the last laugh?

Alice Russell - My Favourite Letters

The Beatles Fishbone Jellyfish Lynyrd Skynyrd Radiohead Faith No More Led Zeppelin Kings X David Bowie Prince

Cheap Trick are ace...apart from supporting Kiss Live At Budokan and the early studio albums Cheap Trick and In Color are the places to start. They've had a few decent songs on each of their albums but are a tad patchy. Must mention the fab Jellyfish for any power pop people to check out.

It was Cliff who was at the forefront of it, I don't think Macca has been publically involved in it...too much other shit to deal with...er the ex

Same here, all the best.

I thought Bellowhead were very entertaining on the last Jools show of this series. Reminded me of a Michaelangelo and the Black Sea Gentlemen from last years Edinburgh Fringe Through the mists of time I go for a couple of other Jools moments Ben Folds Five and the equally superb Jellyfish.

Excellent news...

The Mouse? I just remember him from Saturday Superstore and he seemed a tad odd then. You must admit though, he's hardly in the "great" category of ...anything. And finallly he wrote some Cliff Richard songs...i rest my case

The "great" BA Robertson... Mmm this is the writer of such 80s novetly works as "Cool in the Kaftan", "Knocked it Off" and "Bang Bang". "The Living Years" is cringeworthy lyrically and mediocre musically.

One of my mates emailed me this today stating "Kindof like Mojo Nixon but without the subtlety and good taste.." He has a bizarre taste in most things but I've not listened to any of it yet

Hush also feature the fab Sandy Thain on drums (Pearsons, Hole In The Wall Gang)

Yup so did I, maybe it's the inability to count?

Away from the obvious I'll give you the perfect pop of Jellyfish and their debut Bellybutton

I'm sure they used Metallica and the like a few years back at a siege at some embassy. Maybe they're just updating their CD collections...

Nothing there that I'm unaware of...but I'm sure plenty other people will learn a thing or two. The thing that's always got me about Queen was they played Sun City in the Apartheid era, which to me shows them as having no morals as far as a fast buck was concerned. Which is even more magnified by the Freddie's background...

Yeah, just heard that last week. Very disappointing but at least we saw them!

The Jackson Five "ABC"

I love Jackie Wilson's Higher and Higher but it's already been mentioned, so what about Move On Up from Curtis Mayfield? Frankie Miller's "Be Good To Yourself", Beatle's "Penny Lane", Fishbone's "Cholly"...etc etc just popped into my head too but I could end up here all day:up:
