going underground - the jam i wanna be adored - the stone roses it must be love - madness blue - eiffel 65 american girl - tom petty and the heartbreakers
Won't get Fooled Again - The Who - When it is played very loudly at an empty Valley when most of you lot are still in the Pub!!!!! I swear some old lady nearly died of a heart attack when she heard that - Memories of 1976 flooding back.
The Trees - Rush
You don't fool me - Queen - Best ever Brian May solo
Four in the morning (Tammy Wynette?) was one of only a handful of records Charlton ever seemed to play in the '70s. That always takes me back to those days on the East Terrace with 8,000 crowds when we were really crap. Let Me Entertain You always provides pleasant memories of the teams coming out of the tunnel in the play-off final.

When the opening chords of Sweet Jane by the Velvets crash in. "my life was saved by rock and roll" as another VU says.

July '79 fanzine writer gets to interview his fav band at Town House studio while they record When You're Young. Was I ever that young? "fall in love with anyone, any guitar, any bass drum, when you're young, but you find out life isn't like that" God Paul you were only 21 when you wrote it but how true, how true
Glenn did it with just his acoustic at the Blackheath concert halls last month. Spellbinding.
And Sir Henry, there's an 50/50 chance my band might be supporting Weller on tour in the late Spring, as he seems to be quite supportive of our frontman, Chris Holland, who used to play keyboards in his band. Which would be nice. Us, Albert Hall, last month, if you're interested. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aZkhv0Xahxs Somewhere else up there is a version of us grabbing Squeeze's Tempted by the throat...
It varies! Sometimes Christopher Holland, or Cosmic Harmony, or CHristopher Holland's Cosmic Harmony. We are blatantly trying to capitalise on the fact that he's Jool's little brother and can play just as well and sing better. No, we have no shame.
Sir Henry, they just dont know how to write decent lyrics nowadays:
Ag-a-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, shake the tree
Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, grind coffee
To the left, to the right, jump up and down and to the knees
Come and dance every night, sing with a hula melody
I met a hula mistress somewhere in Waikiki
Well she was sellin' pineapple, playin' ukulele
And when I went to the girl, come on and teach me to sway
She laughed and whispered to me, yes come tonight to the bay
The lovely beach, in the sky the moon of Kauai
Around calypso sarong we'll all be singin' this song
Ag-a-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, shake the tree
Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, grind coffee
To the left, to the right, jump up and down and to the knees
Come and dance every night, sing with a hula melody
Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, shake the tree
Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, grind coffee
To the left, to the right, jump up and down and to the knees
Come and dance every night, sing with a hula melody
And down on the shore they gather romance
She showed me much more, not only to dance...
Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, shake the tree
Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, grind coffee
To the left, to the right, jump up and down and to the knees
Come and dance every night, sing with a hula melody
Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, shake the tree
Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, grind coffee
To the left, to the right, jump up and down and to the knees
Come and dance every night, sing with a hula melody
The lovely beach, in the sky the moon of Kauai
Around calypso sarong we'll all be singin' this song
Ag-a-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, shake the tree
Aga-doo-doo-doo, push pineapple, grind coffee
To the left, to the right, jump up and down and to

Dood, you grow a mahoosive beard, it would look ace. good band by the way
Sir Henry, the young fanzine writer was Tony Fletcher who had a fanzine called Jammin' Which i used to sell for him really nice bloke, he also got an exclusive with Sir Paul McCartney which at the time was a real surprise, macca was also recording at the same studio and he got paul to go and sort it out for him and hey presto. he also played guitar in a band called Apocalypse, And Also ran a label, i have also met mr weller and the boys.I Have seen the jam many times and would say they were so powerful as a 3 piece, even when i saw some of the 1st gigs they did. Top band and great records.
