Also listening to 400 Blows - Movin' (a cover of Brass Construction's classic)


Apparently, 400 Blows was founded in South London in the beginning 80's as a duo of Alexander Scott Fraser and Andrew Edward Beer. Wonder if they're around Dulwich somewhere...


If anyone knows where I can get a CD with the 400 Blows version of Movin' on it (don't mind a compilation, please let me know!


:)

"'Street Fighting Years' - Simple Minds "


when it all went a bit wrong (assuming with hindsight rather than nostalgia it wasn't all a bit wrong)


was listening to Sparkle in the Rain and I think it's still a decent album assuming it isn't the glow of hose young sunny days casting errr umm a shadow

mercury music nominees mmm nominated.


Any thoughts? Not exactly a vintage year admittedly, but generally o the opinion that UK has been a bit weak for a few years now. Some great small labels here scouring the world for original talent, but it's Ll got a bit stagnant here of late.


Still that Lisa Hannigan is very listenable in a coffee table sort of way. Anyone who should be on there who isn't (nope Simple Minds is a big no no)?

    • How the hell did Mad maxxi do that given the state of the rest of us?
    • "I also remember when we first moved here a small indoor market on the corner of North X road and Felbrigg rd that had bric a brac and bits of furniture..That one had some good stuff."   I remember that little bric-a-brac, at the back of the solicitors' place. Still got a block type panel from there. The old solicitors on the corner would could be a good venue for a few indoor stalls

    • I would love something like this..I remember the one where Gails is now..It had some bric a brac furniture and 2nd hand clothes, I don't remeber the Oyster bar. The issue with the one on Zenoria St-And I speak as a long time habitué of Portobello, Kensington Market, Alfies,Spitalfields,Covent Garden (back when it had a decent vintage market on Mondays in the 80's and Early 90's) ..Was that a lot of the stuff they sold looked a bit meh..like a bad car boot fair. I also remember when we first moved here a small indoor market on the corner of North X road and Felbrigg rd that had bric a brac and bits of furniture..That one had some good stuff. I think the secret is in having a good mix of stalls selling well curated pieces at decent prices...It would also be good to have a few tables and rails available to rent for one-off sellers (car boot style) by application. When I lived in Notting Hill I used to do Portobello under the flyover a couple of times a year and made really decent money because people tended to go there on sundays for the Casual stallholders rather the same dealers selling the same stuff.
