What are you listening to.................RIGHT NOW!!!

The 1970 releases of:

Blood On The Tracks-1975
Desire-1976
Street Legal-1978

Are 3 of his best albums imo, and I saw him on his divorce tour of 1978 at Earls Court, what a fantastic gig that was.

Baby Stop Crying was the first Bob Dylan song I ever heard when it was a hit in summer of 1978 , still my favourite. The album is full of very good songs but seems to have a lot of detractors.
 

Brilliant 12' version of the band's 5th single release , after Mutant Moments , A Man Could Get Lost, Tainted Love and Bedsitter.

Fun City was the extended b side, an emotive poignant track on the same lines as Bowies London Boys and Bronski Beats Small Town Boy.

I remember watching SHWG on ToTP ..because of its beautiful start ,Mum who had been cooking in the kitchen ,came thru to the living room and was obviously impressed, cos she sat down and took a break to watch the video......however when Marc Almond got to the lyric " you were a sleep around ,a lost and found " Mum look disgusted, tutted,and swiftly headed back to the kitchen... that was her interest in Soft Cell killed dead..

Great track.
