If you want to know just how uncool I really am, we were watching YolanDa's Band Jam the other day when I mentioned to my wife that I had a real soft spot for the Lightning Seeds.

Dunno, they seemed cool for a while but I always thought they were rather tongue in cheek. A few years ago I met a guy of that age from Sheffield though who reckoned Martin Fry was deadly serious. And they made some great pop records.

No doubt deeply uncool. Brilliant, in any case......
As was their eponymously titled track, here in another rollickingly good live performance. Who'd have thought a (custom) nickelodeon, a 12-string guitar and a drumkit could knock out such a great sound:

About time this had another airing.
Immensely uncool to like it, I dare say, given he's cretinously pro-Trump, not to mention the subject matter of the lyrics - although lyrics tend to go in one ear and out the other with me, it's the physical sensation of the music that gets me. However, it's impossible to escape the sheer superbness of his playing. 4'40" to 7'17" is stratospherically good.

Gob-smackingly awful! I'm not waving my M&S boxer shorts at him just yet.
How can anybody wave a guitar around looking like a third rate Tarzan wannabe?

Because of the self-confidence of knowing how good a musician he was, which combined with the attire got countless women to sleep with him.....I should imagine.

Fair enough. I guess I'm just the wrong gender and don't appreciate crap guitarists.
Peace man.

I'll put on my best Fair Isle sweater in anticipation.s'ok, someone 'll be along with a Val Doonican number for you soon.
Edit: This is like the letters page of Melody Maker, circa 1969!
