Please leave me a comment if you download...

...because it's nice to feel appreciated ;-)

Today, a few odds & sods that I like. A bit of a mixed bag! Download them individually, or get the whole lot here http://rapidshare.de/files/35186364/oddsends1.zip.html.

Biljo - Clodagh Rogers

I just think this is a great pop song, one of the lost classics from the late 60s.

Jealousy - The Boothill Foot Tappers

Along with the Pogues and The Men They Couldn't Hang, one of the best of the punk folk/skiffle bands of the mid-80s. I worked with them a lot at the Robey.

Bye Bye Baby - The Bay City Rollers

Yes, really! It's wonderful, just like 'pop' music should be.

Star Trekkin' - The Firm

One of the few comedy records that stands repeated listening to.

Arfur Daley - The Firm

Same again.

Heart Of Mine - Hi-Fi

Ian Matthews teamed up with David Surkamp of Pavlov's Dog and made an ep and an lp. This is the only decent track on either of them - but it *is* a cracker.

The Gaol Song - Peter's Private Army

I know absolutely nothing about this single. It's fantastic though, mid-80s folk-rock of the highest caliber. Does anyone know anything about it?

Romeo - Mr Big

Another great pop song. Nuff said.

Gerdundula - Status Quo

This is the best of many versions IMO, from the b-side of an old single (can't remember which one)

You can purchase the complete works of Hi-Fi from David Surkamp's own website http://www.surkamp.com/purchasecds.htm

The version he is selling contains the album and the EP (or is it two eps?? can't remember) along with copies of the first four Pavlov's Dog albums.
