Apparently upon my recommendation, the lovely Geoff has been rediscovering The Korgis; just to move the goalposts, here’s the band from which they evolved, Stackridge. I have decided to adopt the clarinet player as my sartorial role model:
Lovely selection Timster. Nice to hear a song you can tap your toes to and whistle along to, isn't it?
(Jesus Christ - I'm turning into my old man. It'll be Billy Bloody Joel next. Or Harry Nilsson singing 'Without you'....or...no....no...not *Mike* *Flowers* *Pops*.....)

w.v.: exessn. Well, that's what rock 'n' roll *used* to be all about...now it's tunes you can whistle in your sleep and soft-shoe-shuffles where the drums are played with *brushes*....
More to Whispering Bob's taste than those "awful 3rd rate Rolling Stones copyists" the New York Dolls, I presume.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed that, Tim. I would've bought a compilation together with the excellent value Korgis one but it didn't seem to exist.
That's Steve "Love the Show Steve" Wright on lead guitar isn't it?
ReplyDeleteI think he's Korgi Registered now.
...and Freddie Mercury on bass, Rog.

That’s odd, Geoff, because apparently Stackridge are back together again. I wonder if they still wear those suits.
ReplyDeleteIf it were Steve Wright, Rog, he’d have rolled up his jacket sleeves.
It will never be Billy Bloody Joel, Mort.
