Still gets to me after over 50 years listening to this song.

Breathing is a sin, they say,
Loneliness is the price to pay.
Sad for you, I go once more.
I'll dry my eyes on a distant shore.

No way of freezing your rising tide
No way of keeping you by my side.
Like a bird, I'll fly high,
Guarding over this love of mine.

A room of trust
A room of fears
A room of laughter with a few sweet tears.
There we lay that sunny dawn
Calm and helpless as it lingers on.

No way of keeping you by my side.
No way of keeping our love alive.
Like a bird, I'll fly high,
Guarding over this love of mine.

Many times we hurry by
Lose our problems in a knowing smile.
Many days were swept along
Left unnoticed as our love grew strong.

Believing each of us would always know
Believing one of us would never go.
Like a bird, I'll fly high
Watching over this love of mine.

A most underrated band, almost unknown. Very distinctive sound, they made masterpieces.

Martin Turner is on down the road, at The Globe, in a couple of weeks as part of his 'Live Dates Vol.2 Tour'.

He must be nearer 80 than 70, by now :duno:

I'm loving the Soft Cell debut album 'Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret' all over again.

New Elbow album 'Audio Vertigo' arrived here in the Wolds last week.

Having noted the recommendation from faaip, I've been working my way through the Flaherty Brotherhood tracks on Spotify today.

Some really good stuff there and I love the artwork that goes with them

As I seem to recall you mentioned, faaip....it's odd why they've released 30 singles in 2024 and no album :?

Very strange ... something seems dodgy about it. No EP's, albums, just single track releases.

They probably drop digital tracks as they record them rather than wait to release full albums, they drop more cover artwork that way which appears to me to be made by A.I software rather than made by human creative hands, their record label uses a lot of A.I on their releases it stops illustrators earning a living but that's the way it's going nowadays.

Just read two albums due to be released in the next month or so that would stir John In Louisiana's interest.

Richard Thompson 'Ship To Shore'
His first album in six years from this prolific singer/songwriter

Little Feat 'Sam's Place
A blues album from the west coast band, their first studio album in twelve years.

I watched a documentary last night about GG Allin.
Man, what a degenerate.
He was famous for s**tting himself on stage and throwing it at the audience.
Most of his concerts ended in mass brawls that spilled out onto the street.

Not at all, Rook.

Read about him when you mentioned the documentary you watched.
