After all the nice things ctel has done fro me these past few weeks, I go and inflict this on him:-
mp3 : The Fall - Hit The North (Part 1)
Still, it will make Drew sitting across his kitchen table a wee bit happy.
A 1987 single that reached #57 in the UK charts. Here's yer b-sides from the 12".....and a warning to anyone who gets annoyed at Mark E Smith when he yepls his way through a song that if features some of his best....
mp3 : The Fall - Australians In Europe
mp3 : The Fall - Hit The North (Part 3)
mp3 : The Fall - Northerns In Europ
For anyone wondering what happened to Part 2 of Hit The North, I believe it can be found on the back of the 7".
Here's yer promo:-
And a cover:-
ENJOY!!!!!!

Brilliant track - I saw this on long-forgotten music show The Roxy, aged 10, and I thought it was great.
Still do.
Australians in Europe is brilliant, one of the highest placings ever in John Peel's Festive fifties for a b-side...
That's my anthem that !
Watch the first couple of mins of this for another great cover version...

As Ed said, Australians in Europe is a belting track. You just can't go wrong with The Fall. Apart from that track on Room to Live where he plays the violin. That's just crap.
And you can inform CTEL that some bloke is playing a Fall track a day and blogging it:
