I'm sure it was Paul lol - was one of our big haunts then. It must have been 1989 or 1990 cos I was still at college. Do you remember them?

Hi Gwynne, Yes I knew Scott Walker was greatly influenced by Brel's lyrics, he sang loads of his songs. I have desktop pics on the computer of a few people & found some good ones of Scott here, if you haven't seen them you must go and drool lol. http://www.photofeatures*com/scottwalker/ I am envious you got to see the Walker Brothers was that when they returned with the album 'No Regrets' lovely song that someone nicked on me :-((( Pat x

Seems mostly to be about music. May I change the course and say Ken Goodwin the comedian from the programme of the same name. Also used to like charlie williams on the same programme. Happy days

Just thought of another group that did a very entertaining stage act - Peter Jay & the Jaywalkers. They did a version of the CanCan that went down well at 60s parties before Buster Bloodvessel did his. >*|*<

oh I liked those. 'If I had a photograph of you. Something to remind me. I wouldn't spend my life just wishing...' 'I ran, I ran all night and day.' Lovely hair he had!

Other artists/groups from the 80s that I missed first time around (too young!) that I'm getting into currently are Psychedelic Furs, also Gang of Four. Remember a group called Blancmange as well? lol

I remember Blancmange (but hated them)! Also similar era was Flock of Seagulls and ABC. Not for me I was a rock fan they were too soft for me!
