So unplug the jukebox and do yourself a favour

[Sloop John B]

They were simpler times weren’t they when we thought we were hearing something so new it would change our lives forever.

It’s somewhat strange what becomes iconic and what remains a footnote.

Radio is in the hands of such a lot of fools
trying to anaesthetize the way that you feel

C30, C60, C90 go! *. Remember when home taping was killing music? Sharing physical media always seemed much more vital than just sending a link to youtwitface.

*I lump Adam Ant and Bow Wow Wow together

Adam And The Ants were the first "punk" band that I saw. They were supporting the Slits at Cheltenham Art College, sometime during September '77. It must be said that they wen't very good.

Radio is in the hands of such a lot of fools

Capital Radio
In tune with nothing
Don't touch that dial

Missing simpler times here.

You talk about your revolution, well, that's fine
But what are you going to be doing come the time?
Are you going to be the big man with the Tommy gun?
Will you talk of freedom when the blood begins to run?
Well, freedom has no value if violence is the price
Don't want your revolution, I want anarchy and peace
