Thanks @niallb

Any chance you could remind me on Saturday, I’m bound to forget!😁

Watched it on iplayer last night. Fab. I’m a root note plodder so felt very inferior. Ber-nard…wow!

I love the randomiser!

Never got round to listening to that Sparks album…I’d heard it was a bit different to the ones that preceded it.

Yep, Frosting on the Beater was the one wasn’t it? Recently replaced my cassette version with a cd from the tax dodgers….very good album indeed.

Wot, not even “Theme from great cities?”

Hmmm…yes good point. Hasn’t aged brilliantly compared to some of the others which still sound relevant. Oh yes.

I didn’t know Richmal was a “she” until, well, now.

The Barbican had a curfew at 11 so I guess the gig will be starting mid afternoon?

Loved reading as a child, the usual suspects I imagine – Jennings ( no sir it’s a private hedge!) Just William…I’d snort with laughter. And from there somehow onto Sven Hassels WW2 books and onto Alistair […]

Perhaps Steve T was guided by voices?

Hmmm, really couldn’t get into that…not enough synths!

Had a freebie for (what turned out to be) their last UK tour but turned it down…
