Love them.

New video! This was due to come out about two weeks ago, but as some might have seen, the technology let us down - again! Lots more to come, although not Summer wine-related videos, but mostly still of interest I hope. So, make a note...

Oh my God I think it was. My mind is unclear about the second gig. Definitely saw them on Raven tour and not long after, but that Who Wants The World tour rings a bell. Please tell me you saw Ian Dury there ;) Your mum sounds ace. I...

We were at the same gig if you were at the Who Wants The World Tour at the Apollo in 1980. Great gig and at that time they had all those previous albums to pull songs from for the set. My mum knitted me a JJB black sweater with one...

I saw them twice in 1979 and 1980/81ish at the Manchester Apollo. Amazing gigs. I too really only like the first 5 or 6 albums. My fave Stranglers album is The Raven. I say favourite because that was the tour I first saw them and it...

… they did do one brilliant cover though.

I have a bit of a dilemma about the Stranglers. I loved the first 5 albums and they were the second band I ever saw live but then I gave up on them after some horrendous live shows ( especially with the crap brass section) and what I...

The speed that technology has changed stuff I'll be honest doesn't fill me with the greatest of glee. I'm no Ted K. fanboy but I've read most of his stuff and he was 100% spot on. We literally destroy beautiful landscapes for a power...

Pre Cafe days it was a Fish & Chip shop which I am sure we all knew, found these super pictures online, the first one of the chippy, the second one is the owner Norman Beall on his way to open up, I think this name appear on the cafe...

Hi Brian - I’m staying overnight in Holmfirth. I have some sentimental reasons for wanting to get out to a few of the locations in the countryside. My mother passed away last year and it will be the one-year anniversary of losing her...

I have loved Badfinger for many years. Probably ingrained in my brain from the early 70’s before punk came along and took me away, along with T Rex, Sweet, Glitter Band and Mott The Hoople etc. There’s a great documentary about them but...

BADFINGER - BABY BLUE. Very sad story behind this band. Absolutely brilliant musicians who deserved much, much more respect than the so called music business gave them.

... cos I'm losing mine! Next, little, video will be delayed due to a camera memory card, ummm ... losing it's memory. Pete is going to try and recover the data from it. That worked before when filming on location with no possibility...
