Never seen this or heard it before, a great version of Come On Eileen

 

[Ribble73]

Not a Fan -this lot go down as the worst Gig I’ve ever been to -and this was 1978 when they were just starting on the “Eileen” wave. This lot and the 2 support Bands were utter trash!!

Tosvig looks half decent for a change.

The only great version is the one you never hear.

Come On Eileen was 1982. They were nowhere near that look or sound in 1978.
Geno was 1980.

Saw them at Keele University in 1980. I don't remember them particularly standing out like, say, UB40, but then, I was more into stuff like Jonathan Richman, John Otway and Wreckless Eric.

It was probably 1979-80 then

Love them.
Saw them a few weeks ago at the Bridgewater.

Got to be a contender for the worst popular song. Absolute wank
