Sunday, September 12, 2004. 7-inch single, 45rpm. Once upon a happy ending. Boy chases girl kind of thing, if I recall correctly. Plain cover. Nice 80s GTO logo - pink on a grey background. Another of those spindly plastic centrepieces (see entry for REO Speedwagon). Catchy chorus. For those who don't recall them, The Dooleys would be in the same category as bands like the Nolans and Bucks Fizz. The patrol hasn't ended. 7/10. WHAT THE WORLD WOULD SAY. The patrol is coming under attack. 3/10. He's leaving...

Sunday, May 23, 2004. CHICAGO : Hard to say I'm sorry 1982. 7-inch single, 45rpm. You're going to be the lonely one. Mother of a Chicago logo on the front. Picture of the Chicago 16 album on the reverse. A blockbuster ballad from the early 80s, courtesy of Peter Cetera. If there's anyone over 35 who doesn't know the tune, I'm a Dutchman. Nothing to say sorry about. 8/10. WHAT THE WORLD WOULD SAY:. Why not try one of my other blogs? Http:/ versenurse.blogspot.com. Http:/ myspamfriends.blogspot.com. My mem...

Thursday, March 18, 2004. STATUS QUO: What you're proposing 1980. 7-inch single, 45rpm. Is it to do with love or something? The lyric to this one is a little vague in my mind now. It seems to be in some kind of Phonogram sleeve. They're based in Park Street, London. Or they were 24 years ago, anyway. It was a catchy little number, wasn't it? But not perhaps in the class of something like Rockin' all over the world. A gentle introduction to head-banging. 6/10. WHAT THE WORLD WOULD SAY:. FIDDLER'S DRAM: Da...

Tuesday, February 24, 2004. ERIB B. and RAKIM: Follow the leader 1988. 7-inch single, 45rpm. Written by E. Barrier, W. Griffin. Follow the leader (dub). Christ, I can't even remember this one. The only track of theirs that sticks in my mind is "Paid in Full", which was very good. This is a late 80s track, but I can't recall anything about it and don't have a record player any more, so can't listen to it again. Rating unavailable due to total amnesia. WHAT THE WORLD WOULD SAY. BBC Records and Tapes. Why n...
