I'm thinking about having a Janeys revival night.
How many people out there are old enough to remember the legendary Gourock Hotel - what era did you go?
Under 18's
Joy
Eva
Other?
What's your fav Bay songs, or even just songs that remind you of those heady days
Here's a few;
Under 18's (1984-1988) - My unders days
1. Violent Femmes - Add It Up
2. Jonathan Richman - This Kind Of Music Is The Kind That I Like
3. Aretha Frankin - I Say A Little Prayer
4. Velvet Underground - Temptation (Inside Your Heart)
You would also have heard the Smiths, Cramps, Meteors, Spear Of Destiny, etc.
Eva (1990-1993) My DJ days
1. Stone Roses (obviously)
2. Freaky Realistic - Kootchie Ryder
...in fact I'm going to dig that out to play at Wordup tonight.
3. Definition of Sound - Wear Your Love Like Heaven
I have to give David Boag a nod here because he was the man who introduced me to soul - here's three Boag belters
Jackson 5 - ABC
Dexys - Soul Finger (and There There My Dear)
It might sound daft now but in the early days my music taste started about 1979-80 and I only went back to 1977. In fact for most of us Punk was year zero.
Until 89-90 and then it was .... Dance, soul, guitars, Manchester (all at once). A melting pot
Oh, must mention A Guy Called Gerald - Voodoo Ray and S'Express - Hey Music Lover at this point.
