Right, on to 1979..the year that I became a Mod and was the proud owner of a '64 Lambretta completely covered in blue gloss household paint which I bought for the princely sum of £5!. A lot of my spare income was going on mohair and two-tone tonic suits, but I still had some to keep buying cherished music recordings and unlike my mates who were only listening to The Jam, Secret Affair etc I was taking in the full range of the multitude of genres about at that time, here are some of them..

This is from the brilliant debut album, Entertainment! from Leeds Post Punk band, Gang of Four...

Reading the first part of this is brilliant. Love the blue gloss paint onthe lambretta. My old man did my cousin’s old one up two years ago... superb it was. He’d have cried at the blue gloss!

Damn, with all the excitement of signing local hero Danny, I forgot to post today's songs.

Ok, how about something optimistic and joyous? and here is 3:30 minutes of pure joy. Some people demean Disco and dance music but this is just a perfectly written, produced and performed piece of music...

Revisiting my (too large) vinyl collection at present due mainly due the arrival of a new cart/stylus.
This lot were much underestimated in my view. They were never 'cool', often lurching too near to cabaret or cheesy for that. Also dressed badly but they produced some fine music. Saw them live in Winchester around '82, good performance and good fun.
