[Newportnobby]

Ah yes - the soaring voice of Maddy Prior (with a bloodthirsty tale)..............

Ah yes - the soaring voice of Maddy Prior (with a bloodthirsty tale)

They dont make them like that any more

bloodthirsty tales in the plural !
"You will burn" :-
Then one night as you sleep in your goose feather bed
We will be standing at your bedside
Your bones will be broken and your blood will be shed
Your eyes will be taken and your hands will be tied

Then we'll take you to the forest
Where none will hear your cry

etc!

and "The Black Freighter"
shiver m'timbers

then ther's "Twa Corbies"

oh too many, too many,,
those were the days,
now they are all over the 'tube !

[Newportnobby]

Another of my electric folk favourites. A tale of infidelity and murder...........

A poignant song of war by a group I've just discovered.

And an old favourite from a popular local group that I've seen many times.

Sorry, Malc, but I prefer the Davey Arthur and the Fureys version of 'Green Fields of France'

Does nobody listen to decent groups like Bros, Bewitched, and the Saturdays anymore

[Newportnobby]

That'll be a 'NO!' then

[paulprice]

Well I will go back to listening the fantastic Leftfield, Phat Planet CD

[D1042 Western Princess]

Does nobody listen to decent groups like Bros, Bewitched, and the Saturdays anymore

Just as I was getting to like you too  .

So I've got little hope of finding support amongst the members here for the Andrews Sisters, Ivy Benson (and her all girl band) or the Ink Spots then?

Is that like music old people listen to??? I's a child of the 80's that's 1980's not the 1880's

George Formby's "Our Sergeant Major" is playing as I write.

What I can't understand is that you seem happy to place the word 'decent' in the same sentence as Bros, Bewitched and the Saturdays
I would check that sanity certificate you got from your doctor, Paul

Who???

[D1042 Western Princess]

Who???

sorry, 'The Who' were quite a different group.
