Just been listening to this one in my car on the way to work this morning, it’s a good track this one.




Great track. Not a great live act, at least not when I saw them. Others may have been luckier. Andy Fairweather Lowe had an incredible voice but his voice box struggled to get anywhere near the high spots on this or Bend Me Shape Me.

This version blew my socks off in the first bar. First time I heard it was on a Stranglers LP in 1982. I found out it predated them but I didn’t realise by how much until I heard this just now.

I saw your face and heard you call my name.

Never heard or seen that before. Absolutely brilliant.

Good pick KM.

Remember this one? We used to break countless rulers tapping on our school desk trying to get the timing spot on.

I don't think that was actually Dave Brubeck and it was only released last year.

The song WAS written by The Stranglers but I must admit that the start is very similar to Brubeck's Take Five.

From wiki (I know not the most reliable source of info)

Quoted Text
In 2020, British YouTuber and saxophonist Laurence Mason's cover of "Golden Brown" in the style of classical American jazz pianist Dave Brubeck was viewed over a million times leading to a commercial release via Amazon and iTunes, and as a vinyl single under the title "Take Vibe EP" (in reference to the song "Take Five" by the Dave Brubeck Quartet). The vinyl release stayed two weeks in the Official Vinyl Singles Chart's Top 40, peaking at No 24.

Blimey Les, I was completely taken in.  😞

But then, as Rowley Birkin QC used to say, I was very, very drunk.

Here’s one to remind Ron of his days in the jazz clubs of Paris in the early 60s with the Spanish emigres 😉.

There’s something hypnotic about this one. Though it might be just the main dancer.

In view of all the recent happenings down at BP, this seems rather appropriate.  Wonderful voice.

Golden oldie from my teens.



Great song.  Andy Fairweather-Lowe hardly opened his mouth to sing, but he could hit the high notes alright.
