Deacon Blue - Real gone kid

Really underrated Deacon Blue, reformed now I believe. I used to love their song Dignity and that Bacharach and David EP they did :)

When the world knows your name was the first album I ever bought

Just got myself a copy on cd the other day

Still sounds good

Great pop album

I've only got 'Raintown'.

Brings back many childhood memories! I was about five when this was new, my sister got this song on cassette.

Ah cassettes, many unhappy hours spooling them back into the cassette with a pencil when a particularly prized tape got chewed up, who says things haven't got better, Oh yea, its me normally :$

I once had my car broken into in France,

When I told the police that, amongst other things, I had lost some cassettes, they wrote 'K7'

Oh how I laughed . . .

If "once" means something like "last month" then these plicemen must have laughed at you: (in Allo Allo-ish french accent) "Sis old twit is is still using cassettes, don't he know what century we have, wot an idiot".
Still, this K7 abbreviation is clever...it took me a few years before I realized what K9 means.

I had a complete blank moment on who did the 'original' of Where Did You Sleep Last Night and had to look it up. Then I remembered previously not being able to remember that Echobelly weren't Leadbelly and asking Nil and feeling really stoopid and then I felt like an idiot all over again. I am going to have to put myself on an intensive music refresher course.

Echobelly!

I WANNA DOOOO GREAAAT THIIIINGS...

etc

Ahh the Brit Pop years
