Guilty Pleasures

[Peter99]

Not keen on this at all myself, but it was played !

It was shite then, it's shite now and it will always be shite.

But, yes, it was played. Along with a load of other shite at the time.

heard a few say they don't like it, never tire of hearing it myself

It is superb - it's an absolute Northern belter and Neil Rushton wrote in his book that at one point, it was the biggest sound in the country and people would travel just to hear it. It's got just about everything. Actually pretty rare on it's first Philips issue too.

This came on the radio a couple fo weeks ago as I was driving into the car park at work. I was so distracted i drove into a wall and broke my number plate. But didnt miss a beat.

Actually neither did Karen when she pointed ouit what a numpty I'd been.

two from me

tymes - someway somehow

doesn't get mentioned much nowadays

but had some time in the sun.. was it 78 ?

guilty pleasure at the time as could remember when first released 75 - top 50?

there was a fair few of these mid 70s easy to get 45s revitalised round 78

a la gameplayers etc

another guilty pleasure (aint heard since back then) was a tailor made one

the (unreleased) instrumental version of "one fine morning" - memory says as the james bond feel was more obvious it sounded a lot better than it should

of course kept such views to meself at the time

I swear I've never heard of either of those (I remember the Tymes when it came out but never knew it got played, and definitely not heard the other one)
