Too much good stuff on the first two albums, and after a while I got to like the Raven. Slightly later fave was midnight summers dream when I think that they were at their most intersting. All a bit down hill after that sadly.


Saw them at five different venues but not at the Hope and Anchor.


My Hugh Cornwall story is that whilst he was in Pentonville Jimmy Lydon (John's brother) started a campaign to keep him in there.

Something of a guilty pleasure in that I liked some of the tunes but thought the band were winkers. Saw them twice in Coventry 77-78, Jean Jaques Tosseur jumped off stage for a 'fight' on both occasions and at the 78 gig the crowd booed them off and chanted for the support band (Steel Pulse) to come back on.

    • I hate cooking and I can't cook. I live on stuff out of the freezer which I cook once every six months. I exaggerate only slightly.
    • Simply, give us a snap election now as the last 12 months in office honestly have not been great in any sense. Let someone else have a go at turning around UK plc before it's too late. At least the last administration had the inflation and unemployment rates going in the right direction at the END. 
    • Yes but what's the answer, Jazzer? No government can simply walk in and fix the economy - get the bills down, grow it and reduce debt. There is no silver bullet. The public (and the press) wants everything now, everything cheaper, but with better public services and lower taxes.  In the radio and paper, all you ever hear is pundits, MPs, think tanks and economists saying what won't work, but no one seems to know what will work.  I'm genuinely interested to hear what other views people have on here, and what they think will help, or make things worse. 
    • While they struggle with economics of UK plc, collectively we all suffer as a result of their ineptitude.
