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.

    • Another recommendation for Dulwich Test and Services Centre. Only been using them for a couple of years but wish I’d found them earlier 
    • A new roadmap (surely railmap?!) for rail accessibility has been published: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/accessible-railways-roadmap It says "approximately 56% of stations and around 66% of the 1.3 billion journeys that take place on the network have step-free access to platforms...  "£373 million has been committed over the next 5 years to deliver Access for All projects, providing step-free access from station entrances to and between platforms, alongside other essential accessibility upgrades. These works, together, will increase the number of step-free stations across Great Britain from 56% to 58%. "This improvement will make travel easier with step-free access available at stations covering an increased share of total rail journeys – from 66% up to 71%" Don't know what that means for us here: upgrading Peckham Rye would cover a lot of rail journeys but the cost has no doubt increased from the £40m figure previously quoted. So that would eat into a lot of the funding.
