MCFC, Cats, Bogshed, The Fall … not sure there’d be much more meaningful to say (well, apart from bIG fLAME)

Agreed, Cale’s ‘live take’ approach to this didn’t do the songs justice

I saw them a lot before this album came out (and although it captures a moment in time) the John Cale ‘live’ production just didn’t bring out the best in the songs. The Peel session versions (Kuff Dam and Cob20) are much better IMO

Found it (tucked away in Subway One 🤦‍♂️). Now if I could only lay my hands on the copy of The Legend fanzine it came in … no chance 😂

Oh no, on Hootennany They’re literally now playing Jeepers Creepers 👀 in a jazz styly…Please, no more, this is awful! Our fault for watching, or better for taking the piss?

I’m syncing Hootenanny (video only) with the Dandelion F50. Latter V Much preferable. Surely the beeb can do better than this boogy-woogy stuff?

Another cracking F50 … HMHB, The Cords, Cuban Boys, Mogwai, McLusky, Alan Sparhawk

Snap…with their ‘hardcore pop’ classic and what I think is one of the great ‘concept’ albums - from the sadly missed Grant 😔
