    Ok. i'm earlier tonight but I can't post any UB40, Killing Joke or The Boss as Whiteley, Woolstonian and Chilcs beat me to the punch!...

    How about some Post Punk with a Psychedelic edge?. The Teardrop Explodes came out of the same scene in Liverpool as The Bunnymen and Wah! and the three frontmen, Julian Cope, Ian McCulloch and Pete Wylie all started together in the same band, Crucial Three.
    This is from their excellent debut album, Kilimanjaro...

    Here is some lyrical brilliance about the deprivation in Thatcher's Britain from Salford Punk Poet, John Cooper Clarke. He is a huge influence on Alex Turner among many others.

    When this was released, BBC radio stations censored the line "Keith Joseph smiles and a baby dies/ In a box on Beasley Street."..

    This is from Graham Parker's follow up album to the critically acclaimed Squeezing Out Sparks and in many ways I prefer The Up Escalator..

    Very sad news.

    RIP Aretha Louise Franklin, Queen of Soul 25 March 1942 - 16 August 2018.

    When you heard her sing, you heard a lot more than just sound waves. <rose>

    No pressure then Jasp!...:emoticon-0107-sweat..:). Thx for the compliment but Chilcs has already put it very eloquently and my words won't do her supreme talent justice so I will just repost this amazing performance that I posted on her birthday in March and let it speak for itself...



    R.I.P Aretha TQOS...<rose>
