Two '80s gems for sure. Been revisiting the Kings of the Wild Frontier album myself lately - still sounds great. In fact if a new band were to release it today they'd probably be lauded as the next big thing.

Early Ants was great, that twin drum beat marked their music out as different from the norm. And then Adam went over the top with the pantomime and the theatricals, which was still fun but not a patch on the earlier stuff.

 

[GrumpyBlue]

Just had a swift shffle, and...

Walk on the Wild Side - Lou Reed
Born in the USA - Bruce Springsteen
Desperado - The Eagles
I Can't Stop Loving You - Ray Charles
Summertime Blues - Eddie Cochrane
We Gotta Get Out of This PLace - The Animals
Ballroom Blitz - The Sweet
Roxette - Dr Feelgood

Natural Born Boogie - Humble Pie

Love Band on the Run. :clap:

Or 'Hand On Your Bum' as Welham Sr always used to call it.

Fantastic album; that'll do me for the journey home.

I heard 'Deutsche Girls' by Adam and the Ants recently and thought exactly the same thing.

 

[Another Surrey Shrimper]

I saw Adam Ant play recently and he really does still cut it.

Has anyone plumped for ELO 'Mr Blue Sky'? Amazing song.

VERY generous Coxy .. Planet Blood can award only 2 full (Lizzy/Ramones) and 2 half marks (Staton,Chi-Lites)

Lizzy, Franklin, Ramones, Jackson 5, Clark and 1/2 point for Chi-Lites, though should be -1000 for anything containing that massively overrated Scottish bint Lennox.
