Brian Wilson composed and produced this track for Glen Campbell, which I think is up there with his best…..

Just like The Four Tops….

Nice one…

B Side to I’m A Boy, which I think may have been in Paul Weller’s record collection.

This track, “Crying To The Sky” from the album “Sunburst Finish” has one of the greatest guitar solo’s (1’47”) of all time. Although my favourite album of theirs would be Drastic Plastic.

The Cure – 10.15 Saturday Night
B Side to Killing An Arab

Working class teenage anthem, superb!

According to Glen Matlock he lifted the riff from Fire Brigade by The Move for the intro to God Save The Queen and the intro for Pretty Vacant was based on S.O.S by Abba.

Japan – Ghosts.
Still amazes me that it became a top five hit single as it’s not radio friendly and pretty experimental.

Genius songwriting by prog rock veteran Pete Sinfield who set out to write a scathing commentary on Thatcher’s Britain (‘Something nasty in your garden’s waiting….’) disguised as a sugary pop song. Bucks Fizz […]

Brian Eno’s beret…

I think Johnny and Santo deserve a mention for this brilliant track (Tear Drop) which was a big influence for Mick Green’s Albatross…

I would like to nominate Keith Levene (PiL) and John McGeogh (Banshees)…

Cadbury Smash Aliens…

Vicks Sinex with Malcolm…..

Caroline Rose – Jeannie Becomes a Mom, what a fantastic track, thanks for that.

Weezer – Buddy Holly

Power Pop at it’s greatest and a brilliant video too.

Stevie Wonder-Someday At Christmas

She and Him – Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas
