Great Lost Tracks - An Everyday Series

One of the most under-rated pop writers ever produced by these scabby wee windswept islands

(Only in this dumb cluck's opinion mind ;) )

TRIVIA FACTOID

The original 7" release of this (on the groovy green Harvest label - mmmmmm) bears a legend...

... and it reads...

"With thanks for inspiration to Neil Sedaka and Brian Wilson"

Kinda makes it even better dontcha think?

Huh?

Speaking of whom...


If someone had a gun at my head and I hadta name the best there ever was (IMO likes )

Bri would be it.

A true musical hero and genius.

And this track?

Just...

Just....

Ahhhh fukk it - play the song already Hugh





"..a choke of grief heart-hardened I - beyond belief a broken man too tough to cry...

...I heard the word, wonderful thing, a children's song"

PS

Does embdy even read this shit anymore or is it purely cheap therapy for me?

It doesn't get much better than this:

Beach Boys are self-indulgent rubbish, what's wrong with you man?
















"Good Vibrations" and "God Only Knows" buck this trend.

How can somebody be so right and then so wrong in such a short space?

Eddie K absolutely fukkin nails that performance to the floor and shows up La Diva for the weak (though v affecting at times) singer she was.

Fukkin dreamy man.

Brian Wilson is what God will look and sound like if (s)he turns out to exist.

That is all.

(There may be a wee related treat in yer PMs Crownybhoy ;) )

That Amy Winehouse's mum looks a bit of a sort. :o

Music by the Blessed and Sainted Burt

Hokey lyric by the Holy Hal

"Ah-pee-pah-paow-pu-pu-pu-puh-puhm"

(Name the track from that lyric! )

Marvin - yes

Stevie - absolutely

Martha - most def

Smokey - true that...


But who lights the votive candle for James Jamerson and Benny Benjamin?


Eh?!!






































Me! - that's who - and I aint even a pape

Da Capo... Tutti!



Urgent

Strutting

Masterly

Assured...


...you just know they aint gonna be sittin at the back of the bus anytime soon

Bad news ...

I'm on a rescue mission to bring over some of the tracks from the thread on the old board

I'm also quite drunk and it's fairly late

I've also got to record some pianner stuff for a happy clappy christian "artiste" tomorrow

In Wishaw... :face:

Sober...






Good news...

This next was under-appreciated by you cunts the first time

It's still as wonderful and strangely more aposite now

Plus...


God is a figment of the collective imagination made necessary by the fact that we are the only species on the planet aware of the inevitability of our own mortality. The heady mix created by this indisputable fact; and the collective mania for circular, morally structured narratives, allows the "moth-eaten brocade" of religion to still hold the majority of the arse-scratching or fence-sitting public in thrall whilst allowing the rest of us enjoy the sensual plaisirs of an entirely deity-free existence in peace, harmony and a cloud of suspicious-smelling smoke.

So it's all good

Good news (slight return)...


Got bored with that project almost instanter...

Decided to post usual pyshe.




Like the Kings of Leon and the Beach Boys had a baby :o

Late Call...

All together now...


"Our father, who art in Hendon
Harrow Road be thy name..."



Goodnight - and may yer Gov go with ye ;)

Ahhhh...

Mibbes just one more....



Just to break outta pg 11 an onto a new pasture y'understand

Bollox!

God!

I don't half spout some pish! :o :o

Still...


...it keeps you sad-sacks in quality listenin material so that you can impress the guests at yer next "soiree" by pretendin you heard all this muso-obscuro stuff "a-a-a-a-ges ago"

So no complaints and gulp it down now... ;)



So glad I watched this through to the end - was gony make a smart comment about the blonde in the Burberry halter top, the likelihood of her havin a daughter my age (or younger ) and the cameraman - then Steve Wright did it :face: :face: :face:

If it was a straight choice between the glam-burberry blonde in the last clip

And the exotic, exciting, other-wordly and compelling red-head in this un...

I'd be hard pushed - fukntellnya



A wee out-take

You can see him shit outta the high notes and fukk up on the third(?) verse

That kinda gaucheness and vulnerability just makes him even sexier tho...

...or is that just me?

You kinda forget what ole William Hardin really looked like

He became visually synonymous with a pair of gegs and a roll-neck sweater inexpertly drawn by some hack who was picking out a living in the design offices of MCA

Here's the real deal

The only one of the "died-young" brigade who would STILL be turning out wee beautifully tooled nuggets of pop...

...Just like this!



Definitely the most endearing gawk in rock

Y'know Immo, I love that Randy Newman track you stuck on here a while back.

Problem is the guy who's acting out the lyrics. He reminds me of a guy I was at school with, who became an unwelcome squatter in a flat of mine, so much so that I had to chuck the cunt out and we haven't spoken for the last 26 years - and I bear that grudge just as fresh today.

Can't be him though. His attention span wouldn't last long enough to act out a whole song.

Ivan O'Hare

He's done a few RN "interpretations"

That's not the guy is it?

Pure punk energy

(Of course the irrepressibly chirpy lead singer would hafta be shot - actually most of em could go - apart from the surly lookin Keef-a-like at 1.50-ish)

Great wee song tho

"Today I might be mad, tomorrow I'll be glad - cos I'll have Friday on my mind"

Speakin of "Ye Punke Rocke"...


The perfect partner piece to "Arrouwche!! Uhrumbuhhhlll"

Only gassier




Style Note

Toots looks a bit like the partner of the guy with the pipe.

Or the lead singer.

Dependent on how drunk you are

Ksshhh Kssshhh

Anyways...

Where wiz ah...

Oh aye...

Think Deep purple mighta listened to these guys



Filthy, pock-marked, long-haired, degenerate, pinko muthafukkahs !!! :o

"...and you dress - like a Dame - and you burn on a Catholic flame... by the hours"

Why are this lot not huge?!!??

I'm gonna say it again

Amateurs!!
