    I can't believe that no one yet as mentioned the best debut LP ever as far as I'm concerned and as far as the band are concerned never came remotely close to matching it again! I give you the opening track from the LP as well as their phenomenal cover that strictly speaking I shouldn't include as it wasn't on the LP originally but on the B-side of the Typical Girls single!





    Actually whilst I'm on my Slits vibe and talking of phenomenal covers how about this live version of John Holt's Man Next Door and featuring Bruce Smith from The Pop Group on drums and a 17 year old Neneh Cherry on backing vocals!

    The Slits on the Word , not only was it a good record debut but who could forget the TV debut
    The Dexy's debut ,how could I have forgotten
    I've mellowed a bit and the Jeff Buckley, Fleet Foxes and public services broadcasting are all worth a mention

    Surprised Changing Man didn't list The Jam's debut album, which includes the classic "In The City", and of course the even greater classic "Batman".

    Was going to mention this at the time but forgot, but perhaps best if people thought it in bad taste. But it was re Coolio and how he seems to be incredibly famous mostly for one song. The point being that it's not really even his song, since it's what is officially a 'sample' of Stevie Wonder's "Pastime Paradise" but for me is more of a cover version with different words. Seriously, I'm sure a lot of you guys have heard both and surely can't argue that the Coolio song couldn't exist without Stevie Wonder. Weird thing is that the original isn't even a great Stevie Wonder song - by his amazing standards, it's fine but not in his top echelon IMHO, yet this spawned Coolio thing is one of the most famous songs ever it seems! I'll just never get music.

    Incidentally while mentioning Stevie Wonder I can never forget the discussion of his music in the film "High Fidelity", which is (to badly summarise) talking about the demise of a formerly great artist. But then the closing song in the film is "I believe when I fall in love" which is an amazing song.

    Edit: just remembered. It's also hard to take the Coolio song seriously after hearing Weird Al's "Amish Paradise". I'm sure it's on Youtube somewhere.

    Coolio had an earlier hit with Fantastic Voyage:


    This was a slightly reworked version of Fantastic Voyage by Lakeside:

    RIP Robert Gordon.

    I love a bit of rockabilly and he was really good...



    Here with the fabulous Link Wray



    (sorry but the sound is a bit **** in parts on the above clip but I love the songs)



    ...and here (wearing my jacket) with Chris Spedding and......



    In this last track is that Antonio Conte on bass?

    Extremely tenuous link time. Steve Duffield, original bassist with The Beta Band, who's music featured in High Fidelity has got a new project called The Wonky Folk and they've just released a new single of which I immediately thought of Alfie Conn amongst others on here! Plus it's a great little tune and deserves to be heard by a lot more people than it probably will do!
