Here's a couple from the Friday show this week.

First is a great cover of the Electric Prunes' signature hit I Had Too Much To Dream (Last Night) by an 80's band called the Thought. I was fortunate enough to get this from a post on a great 80's website and posting board - my thanks and compliments to the original poster!

Next is another great Boys Brigade track - Into The Flow

There were some other tracks from tonight that I thought I would be able to post, for instance, "Like Dust, I Was Blown Away Like Dust" that The Passion Puppets' album Beyond The Pale is available on iTunes.

Passion Puppets - Like Dust / House of Love

Similarly, I was telling "The Story of The Blues" because I was hoping to post that great track by The Mighty Wah!, but that and a bunch of their other songs are also available on iTunes, even the 9 minute extended 12" version!

Well, here's a real mixed bag of stuff from the last few playlists I've posted, but then again a mixed bag is fairly representative of David's show, isn't it? :-)

First up, a couple of Can Con items - you know I'm not actually trying to feature mainly Canadian artists, but they just seem to keep coming up. I guess they tend to be some of the more obscure items that get played.

Boys Brigade - Boys Brigade

Boys Brigade - The Passion of Love


National Velvet - National Velvet

National Velvet - Flesh Under Skin

This next group is essentially a UK based 'boy-band', but before you blindly skip to the next item, this one has some great lyrics that make it well worth checking out! The album this came from seems to be available on iTunes, but for some weird reason a couple tracks are missing, one of them being this one!

Busted - Busted

Busted - Psycho Girl

Finally, here's a track from Phil Lynott, lead singer of the 70's Irish band Thin Lizzy. He released a solo album in 1980 called Solo In Soho, and featured here is the title track.
