2:48 John Cooper Clarke - (You Never See A Nipple In The) Daily Express
4:24 Joy Division - At A Later Date

The "Very Best of John Cooper Clarke" is pretty good but it doesn't have Readers' Wives on it which is a shame.

He really is one off.

 

[Richard A Thackeray]

The end of the Simon Mayo show (Radio 2; Mon-Fri; 17:00 - 19:00) on my way home from the early meet of my running club

He played one of my favourite tracks, by one of my favourite bands

Then, after the news, Bob Harris (again, Radio 2, Thursdays, 19:00 - 20:00) played this.........
Which meant the radio was kept at '11' & also sang along to

A clever song, with that 'Hank & Cash couplet (@ 1.20)

I think Year of the Cat would be one of my Desert Island Discs, Lord Grenville being a particular highlight for me. The dying lead guitar towards the end is simply beautiful..

Worst album Al Stewart ever made, far too commercial. Give the later 'Last Day's Of The Century' a listen.

 

[raleighnut]

Oh no!! I love Year of the Cat

It's not a 'bad' album it's just that as a big fan there are better LPs out there,

I have all his albums and I've heard that said before. You're wrong.

I just get a bit 'peeved' when I mention Al and everyone goes "Year Of The Cat".
I'd post a link to 'Licence to Steal' from Last Days Of The Century but t'internet won't let me.

EDIT - I've only got 15 of his albums.

What can I say? I'm a Completist. I have a huge music collection.

He's only got 3 songs; that cat one, the border thing, and Time Passages, how did he spread those out onto 15 albums?!
