  • There's an interview with him you really must see...

    I thought it was a South Bank Show special, but it might not have been. It was certainly on ITV very late. It was an hour-long look into him and the bands and a lot of what he said struck a chord with me.

  • I only know Caravan of Love

    and that Fatboy Slim was in the band.

    • as was Stan Collymore.

      TRUE.

      • Yep

        Brings back happy memories of my final years at school. 'Happy Hour', 'Me And The Farmer' and 'Sheep' all great little ditties.

    • they have a best of

      called "Now that's what i call quite good."

      it is, indeed, quite good.

      • anxious

        is a fine tune

        • Pop, sucess, huge hits and hardcore Socialism.

          A fantastic combo. Only replicated ONCE ever by the Manics.

    zarcorp demos but i'm looking forward to seeing what their album is like...
