When White Lines came out we all attempted to do body popping and robotics at school. Makes me shudder at the thought now!:o

What is this insipid reggae tosh?

TheWayItIs · 04/12/14 - 19:49

This is more like it!

Gulftastic · 04/12/14 - 19:49

The audience have no idea what to do to this music.

nw0307 · 04/12/14 - 19:49

I'm surprised Simon didn't call these Motorway

Here we go. Do The Sugar Hill Gang ever regret releasing this dreadful music on us for the next 40 years >:(>:(

YES!!

It's a genre that has well and truly outlived itself and I'd happily see it vanish into a black hole forever.

A couple of awful later 80's traits already creeping in, with rap and too many cover versions.

This is one of the poorest shows of 1979 tonight so far.

Oh Lemmy, my ears!

Robbie01 · 04/12/14 - 19:50

MOTORHEAD!!!!

Not bad

SgtRock · 04/12/14 - 19:50

Yes!! I'd never heard anything like this before it came on this edition!

'It' being a loud, tuneless noise?

valkay · 04/12/14 - 19:50

At last some proper rock music.

FB1969 · 04/12/14 - 19:51

Can't say I like this, but it has woken me up.

Eraserhead · 04/12/14 - 19:51

Heh heh. This ain't Hawkwind. Give it some volume

Gulftastic · 04/12/14 - 19:51

This was written when someone complimented Lemmy's jacket.

I remember looking at Lemmy and thinking wtf?

but I did actually grow to like them

Robbie01 · 04/12/14 - 19:52

I'd love to have heard the TOTP orchestra attempt to do the music for 'Bomber'.

fayebeatle · 04/12/14 - 19:52

I dunno are they singing "it's Obama"?

mrbernay · 04/12/14 - 19:52

Bit of life to proceedings.
The intro was more or less in tune.

TUC · 04/12/14 - 19:52

Utterly wonderful.

LaVieEnRose · 04/12/14 - 19:52

Marianne! Class !!!

valkay · 04/12/14 - 19:53

I used to really fancy Marianne .

TheWayItIs · 04/12/14 - 19:53

Fair amount of Eighties instrumentation in this one.

highlander1969 · 04/12/14 - 19:53

Looking very like Katy Manning (Jo Grant from Dr. Who)
