    I had forgotten all about our own Undertones who certainly made John Peel feel good. I have to admit to preferring My Perfect Cousin as their star performance in preference to Teenage Kicks.

    One of the great pop singles of the early 80s with the kind of lines `he's got a fur-lined sheepskin jacket, my ma said it cost a packet', `he thinks that I'...


    Bass player Michael Bradley is no longer a new boy on the block, but he's still around on local BBC Radio. Here he is with a personal take, with undertones, on his native city.

            A fantastic feelgood song from Weezer, and a wonderful video to go with.


            Happy Days indeed.

                It made me glad back then, and it still does. Move over Elvis.

                  Funnily enough I was on the point of posting that, or possibly Promised Land the other night. What a performer he was too. Really though you could post any one of a dozen.

                  He must have made a lot of people feel good !!

                      I thought 'Promised land' too, sainty, but it would be Johnny Allan's take on it, much as I love Chuck. That cajun accordion does it for me every time.

                        Terrific version that JC.

                        I found this video of Chuck playing it in 1972 on the telly, but he misses the last verse . Whats that all about? Such a shame, as it is great as far as it goes.

                          Today, 'Every Little Thing She Does is Magic' by The Police came on the radio and I was up on that dance floor...I never realised how feelgood it was till it hit the chorussy bit.
