The Jukebox Rebel Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 Oh no, stop distracting me MCW... Here's one from the cosmopolitan Liverpudlian quartet which features lasses from Bulgaria and Scotland. They were named after a Roxy Music song, offering clues to their excellence. This one comes from "Witching Hour", my stand out album of the year in 2005. "Beauty*2" by Ladytron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jukebox Rebel Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 ^ Ha ha, aye, ye cannae beat a wee nose through a strangers CD racks! Would be great if more of the WAT brigade joined in... From his album "I Testament" in 1997. Effortlessly wonderful and very uplifting - like Marley on "Time Will Tell". The closer Capleton gets to his African roots the more I love him… turn up Jah bass!

The Jukebox Rebel Posted February 16, 2015 Report Share Posted February 16, 2015 This ends with Iron Maiden, surely? Meantime, had a dime for the jukebox earlier, forgot to chuck it in. From "The Score" in 1996, a first class hip-hop affair. Lauryn Hill especially on top of her game. Listen out for the 90 seconds skit at the end where honourable Chinese take-away owner teaches disrespecting yoofs a painful lesson. Makes me laugh every time.

The Jukebox Rebel Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 ^^ Hiya Barney, good to see you back on the whisper with all your dodgy "Strolling Bones" patter! By the way, as a matter of interest, try removing the "s" from the "https" and see if that embeds your video. Seem to remember that was the case for me. ^ No "Number Of The Beast" gutted Back to 1980 then with a track from their corking debut LP, "Signing Off". They were surely one of the all-time biggest musical let downs in later years. I guess lyrics like "Im a British subject not Proud of it, While I carry the Burden of shame" were never going to shift units...

The Sunnylaw Jag Posted February 17, 2015 Report Share Posted February 17, 2015 If I'd known the consequence of not putting on the Number of the Beast would have been UB40, maybe I would have played it. Anyhoo, here are the Indigo Girls with excellent "Shame On You" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HKqUglOC3_8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sunnylaw Jag Posted February 18, 2015 Report Share Posted February 18, 2015 All the way from Australia, this is Johnny Diesel and the Injectors, which is a great name for a band. I always wanted to be in a band called Stanley Knife and the Carpet Cutters. Anyway, this is 'Cry In Shame' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=740geW2Uy4U Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda-jag Posted February 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 rolling back the years (urgh, that just made me think of simply shite red, boak), to 1981 with this hammersmith boy ..... from the album dance, an album that is almost ironic in its title as nearly none of the tracks are danceable, with its stripped back and more sombre ambient jazz fusion sound, this was the longest track of the album clocking in at four seconds short of the ten minute marker. cry the clock said ..... gary numan http://youtu.be/327Y6NNdMsQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sunnylaw Jag Posted February 19, 2015 Report Share Posted February 19, 2015 (edited) Damn meant to load this fifteen minutes ago or so. This is 'Five O'Clock World' by Hal Ketchum, which is a cover version of a song from the sixties by American vocal band The Vogues. Julain Cope also covered this in the late 80's. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpRQasrp0YM Edited February 19, 2015 by The Sunnylaw Jag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sunnylaw Jag Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Sorry but I just had to do it. I know it's ridiculous after slagging other poeple's choices (UB40) I go for a PWL tune and even worse it's not Kylie but the gobby Sonia. Seriously though this is her great cover of the Skeeter Davis original 'End of the World' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
