There's some nice ones,my picks would be 2,4,5,6 and 8 but they are all good.
The houses in Cornholme (1) don't seem to have any gardens which is a bit odd.

Thank you John for your interest in the music and your kind comments.

Cornholme was a cotton weaving place so the houses were largely fitted in to tight places.

Yeah, that's great.

I was toasting you last night. :) Had a long Cranes session over at a mate's place who has Spotify Premium. Listened to "Forever" and then a playlist of their most popular tracks.

Any idea what their later stuff's like?

Can't think offhand of many other bands etc from Portsmouth.

Ha! Cool

No I kinda ended my interest for some reason about half way through their career...

But Particles and Waves sounds interesting

Stumbled upon this little gem:

A big favourite of mine. Saw him live a couple of times inc. with Wilko, and easily ranks as one of the best ever live performers/bands . In terms of raw charisma, I'd put him at number one.

Thankfully Wilko seems to be OK now.It looks like he's teamed up with Norman W-R from the Blockheads.
I never saw Ian Dury unfortunately but Dr Feelgood a few times.

Wilko's been with Norman for a while. He played with him when I went to a Wilko gig about seven years ago, and he was just as much fun to watch and hear as in his Blockhead days. I saw Dr. Feelgood once too, early on in their career, at an afternoon/evening event they put on fairly regularly at The Roundhouse on a Sunday with a mixed bunch of artists. I think The Pasadena Roof Orchestra might even have been on the same bill! I definitely saw them there one of the times I went.

I never saw them after Wilko left.I'm sorry I didn't because it would have been worth it just to see Lee.
