A piece on the B*****y B******s’ downturn in fortunes on the BBC today. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46468688

Saw them at KGH back in the late 70s. He was being a bit petulant that night because of a few beer mats getting thrown at him (I did think at the time “it could be worse Pete”) but nonetheless it was a great gig, and as ODB says, his was one of the voices of our youth along with Weller, Strummer, Lydon et al. RIP

Thanks again for the updates Stuart. Much appreciated mate

Great draw for me.

The Small Faces - You'd Better Believe It

The Style Council - It Didn’t Matter (arguably the worst single of Paul Weller’s career)

Brinsley Schwarz - Surrender to the Rhythm Nick Lowe definitely inspired Paul Weller here - both in looks and the keyboard riff was also used in the Style Council’s first single, Speak Like a Child https://youtu.be/lMYc5U_jIdc

Paul Weller - Books

The Beatles - Being For the Benefit of Mister Kite

The Chi-Lites - Stoned Out of My Mind

Not having a go at you in particular D.E. but I keep seeing this £7m figure being bandied about. Has this ever been confirmed by anyone? Based on BB's albeit brief appearances so far I cannot believe that such a figure wouldn't include several appearance/goals/promotion clauses and is more likely to be an initial fee of around the £3m mark.

The Tubes - Prime Time

Ocean Colour Scene - Up on the Down Side

Billy Bragg - Between the Wars

The Zombies - Rose for Emily
