    There must have been a Boz Scaggs album that year too, I can remember hitting the road in the sunshine with "Lido Shuffle" blasting out.

    Musically, not just the albums but the whole scene with live venues opening up after the disco desert, and never knowing what great new thing Capital Radio would play next - they did a decent job of keeping their finger on the pulse, especially Roger Scott...it was a special year to live through in London. Thanks for the memory!

    Wasn't that good a year for music what with the deaths of Elvis, Bing Crosby and three members of Lynyrd Skynyrd.

    These tragedies were only partially offset by the execution of Gary Gillmore and the resultant little ditty performed by The Adverts.
