[killer b]

millie small (of my boy lollipop fame) with her anti-enoch powell song. symarip backing her up apparently (and what sounds like the black dyke mills band)



the whole album is pretty damn good.

 

[rekil]

recorded a response to that. If a stinkier pile of rubbish exists anywhere in the history of pop, I've yet to hear it.

beneath its tra la la IS a virulent anti Thatcher song... Oh yes it is... "Something nasty in your garden, waiting, til it can steal your heart. . ."

Written by Peter Sinfield of King Crimson apparently. Absolute drivel, albeit ideologically sound drivel.

Clear affirmation of the St.Just maxim.



We need heaven on earth today (ah ah ah)
We can make a better way
Lets go all the way

and the like

^^ I'm not being all ironic and wankery btw. That's a great tune.



More 'dancey' version of (Arm Yourselves, (I think)), about hatin' the bourgeoisie, the royal family, and singer Zarah Leander, a ww2 nazi collaborator apparently. Neckshots recommended for the lot.

 

[rekil]

Not half enough handclaps and 'hey hey' bits in tunes nowadays.

One of them had written great tunes like At The Hop and You Don't Own Me and all. Indonesia's communists were corrected that year.
