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)?

    • My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.
    • The MFI was probably where Iceland is now. This post makes me feel very old - went to a 30th birthday party in the garden at the back. Oh to be 30 again! 
    • Anyone upgraded their TV for Christmas?! I'm looking for a smallish Smart TV I can use with earbuds. Not more than 56cm high and  25cm deep. A 26" one used to fit.  Thanks!
    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet.
