| It plainly isnt that silly song "The Sun had got its hat on" (1932 version) where that poor BBC Devon bloke got sacked and made ill due to a complete error when he hadnt known the "n" word was hidden in the words -sad. I also recall in the "Dam Busters" film one of the lead parts black labrador (I think) was also called "n" -there was never an intentional slur but with the passage of time and the taboo of the "n" word being mentioned in any context at all , the BBC Devon sacked him after 30 years -Clarkson ? sound like a case of the pot calling the kettle black!!! |

So to speak. Although, probably me putting up Insane in the membrane is just as dodgy but then I'm not a radio DJ. Still a great song though.

Their first record still blows my mind. I mean, a 15-minute bass solo set to the back-drop of dueling flutes is just, well, listen for yourself. ------------- If you're losing your soul and you know it, then you've still got a soul left to lose. |

They were very much a band that kept out of the limelight and finding their material is neigh on impossible. I've got their first record on tape - it's so fragile I don't even look at it, let alone listen to it any more. They shunned the spotlight, but could have been big. Bigger than Jesus (and consequently, the Beatles). Their first record was a tour-de-force; combining driving basslines with medieval string-instruments, electronic-percussion and Norse poetry sung at operatic falsettos. But they made a big mistake by releasing their second album as a Spectrum game! Where you had to navigate crypts inside the shrunken head of a T-Rex, collecting hieroglyphs and spelling out the song titles (backwards) before each song was played back to you - in MIDI! It tore them apart, financially and physically and they disappeared after that. Some say they went to Australia, some say they never existed. I know that's a lie because the cellist was my University lecturer! ------------- If you're losing your soul and you know it, then you've still got a soul left to lose. |
