    I never much liked 'A Good Heart', even though I rated Feargal Sharkey's voice and bought his first solo album on release.

    I then couldn't stand the follow up single 'You Little Thief', both of which were from the album BUT found a track on it that I loved and could never understand why it hadn't been released as a single.

    It has a far 'harder' edge than A Good Heart' and has what I call 'shape' (for want of a better word) to the music.

    Please have a listen then tell me what you think.



    I rated it highly and still do!

    Always liked his stuff with Family and this collaboration with Mike Oldfield on 'Crises'.

    The 'B' sides of early Mike Oldfield albums were normally collaborations with other artists and well worth a listen.

    Another track from 'Crises' that is a favourite of mine - totally different, though, to 'Shadow on the Wall'.

    More melodic but still has 'guts'!

    The Leningrad Cowboys. Good musicians. Visually brill and superb p*ss takers with tremendous cover versions of songs. Not this one though.

    In our previous life I was going to see a Clash tribute band called The Clashed tonight, so thought this would be appropriate.
