I got more compliments about my choice of records last night than I have ever got before (including some kind words from band and crew).
One guy took my picture and posted it online with the tag “ They say the devil has all the best tunes – nah it’s this fella!”
That’s a great list of chunes there Simon. You certainly pulled out a few oddballs there – As My Wife Says and Let It Rock – I’d probably never have thought of playing those. I only knew the Owen Paul song and my wife hated the 80s popiness of it. Now I can go back to her and claim the moral high ground by playing her this version by an acclaimed songwriter. Fabulous stuff.
