Absolutely loved Ten when it came out and still do , some of his stage dives from theatre balconies makes you wonder how he managed it
Jacob Miller:: Baby I love you so, fans of King Tubby meets the Rockers uptown will be familiar with this track
And people who see in a far wider music spectrum will also know ... Credible cover (good enough IMHO to offset the near sacrilege the boys committed with their cover of "say you" ) .
My mates GF at the time worked for 4AD records and I met Steve and Martyn ( brothers? ) from the band
4AD was a great label then (still around now) . As Colourbox the boys were good, but of course their crowning legacy in the Hip-Hop world is their involvement in MARRS. As brothers, tis said their relationship with each other was often terse (ie punch-ups) .
That was a long time ago and if my memory serves me it was at the launch of The The infected album , I went to a few of those A&R junkets at the the time when record labels were chucking money like confetti, also met Black Francis , or as I called him Frank Black which was what I knew him as from his Pixies fame, what an obnoxious prick he was to the staff that day
Wrong thread...but whilst I'm here, 3 pairs of The Damned socks for £30...? please log in to view this image Hmmmm.
£30 quid for socks, f me Brian I would balk if they were pre worn by Billy Nick, Jimmy Greaves and Alfie Conn
Laters most frequent visitor (Jools and the big band excepted) From this 25 years ago to this the week before last
Yesterday wasn't the best of days. Firstly, The Damned reunion gigs have been rescheduled for February and our first and last night tickets are now the second and third nights of four.... Secondly, Captain is now selling off personal possessions on ebay... please log in to view this image I'm sick of this ****.
The band survives on gigging and its merch sales...but even I'm out at £30...although the fact that they wouldn't fit definitely helps. However, these are currently on ebay with 1 bid of £3....VERY NICE! please log in to view this image
