Yes. And Flying Nun had a couple of other cracking bands - The Bats, The Chills.
Exactly. And even gave us a Fall record.
Did you ever run across Shoes, 1970s American power pop? Well worth a listen⌠Would imagine they might have influenced The CleanâŚ

Another live version of this on YouTube is from the early 1980s when Karen Carpenter is suffering badly from the anorexia which would take her life and I canât watch her sing a song of joy knowing she was suffering within herself. Here is a version of her at her best and healthy, there is vocal talent and then there is the likes of Karen Carpenter. RIP

Meh. Sure sign Iâm getting old I think. Very underwhelming. I was reading about the new Foals album the last few days. Rave reviews etc. Gave it a listen and wasnât that impressed. I mean, itâs good, but not that goodâŚ
A new release of bit and pieces from the late great Townes van Zandt, including this lovely stripped down version of one of his classics.
