THIS ONE'S FOR YOU CTEL......

Dear Readers

Today's been the last day of the guest postings.  I wanted to finish off with something that I know ctel will appreciate.  One of his favourite bands of the late 80s and 90s.  Mine too.

mp3 : Carter USM - Sheriff Fatman
mp3 : Carter USM - R.S.P.C.E.
mp3 : Carter USM - Twin Tub With Guitar
mp3 : Carter USM - Everybody's Happy Nowadays

First released in late 1989, it was eventually a hit 18 months later when Carter mania was gaining an incredible head of steam, peaking around 12 months later with the massive tour to promote 1992 - The Love Album.  This CD single features the obligatory cover version.....one that seems apt right now!!

A band well worth finding out more about if you don't know too much.  And there's no better place to go than this book written by one-half of the band.  And while you're there, you will do a lot worse than also pick up a copy of Storage Stories, one of my favourite books of the past decade.

Thanks again folks for sticking by me.  There's going to be a couple of repeat postings over the coming weekend and then on Monday, the TVV posts will start appearing at their regular slot of 6am (UK summer time).  Oh and I'll be updating my links in due course as there's a few more friends I want to give a mention to.

Here's a great live version:-

Aye Yours

Many cheers to Ctel. That's what friends (imaginary and real) are for.
