Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Great choice. Those dance moves to make it a proper act are brilliant.

I’ve  always loved Motown.









Pete Moore changed a bit between then and when he taught us English at Lindsey in the 70s 😁

Quoted from barralad


Mott is one of the great albums of the seventies in my view.

Hymn For The Dudes is mega.



Who originated that singing style/accent? Then or Bowie?

A bit of genius here. Ian Drury with the admirably named Norman Watt-Roy on bass in the Blockheads.



A bit more?





The Blockheads were good with Wilko Johnson as well. Maybe someone can find a video?





A genius with words and music. In the great tradition of English musicians.

There’s a park bench dedicated to him in Poets’ Corner, Pembroke Lodge in Richmond Park. It’s got views over the Thames Valley (it’s on the edge of a ridge, which has a sheer drop to the flood plain) where Dury used to love to sit. An art student did it as a tribute (friend of Dury’s son I think) and his college project. This was in the early noughties. The armrests had solar panels which powered little MP3s (I think they were) and you could plug your headphones in. On one side there were 8 or 10 Blockheads classics, on the other his Desert Island Discs interview with Sue Lawley*. Regularly walk by there.

If you’re ever over that side of London it’s well worth the trip.

* her name always makes me want to sing that Police song “Sue Lawley....I feel Sue Law Law Law, Law Law Law,”

Bit of a change in style. Classic film theme. Outstanding singers and musicians.

Just listening to some Neil Finn, when he was a member of Split Enz. My favourite songwriter.
