    The Chords. This will generate a few cries of "who?", I'll start. :D

    Steve trying to look relaxed with hand in pocket! Not working though.

    He looks so damned scruffy, what's up with that collar?

    Don't know this one from The Chords. Sounds quite good.

    Yep, definitely remember this Chords song.

    Pity they took all their chords from The Jam Songbook.

    Dis-Chord from me I'm afraid. Sounds like generic stuff done back in 1978, The Jam already.

    Where did it get in the charts?

    No. 40.

    Seems like the record buying public saw them for copycats as well.

    One of the funniest things about these repeats is seeing the presenters saying various bands will be around for time to come and knowing with hindsight that the opposite happened.

    Kid Jensen did it with New Musik last week.

    The Regents song has a really eerie chorus. Great track.

    Why has the lead singer of the Regents got shoulder pads stuck down with masking tape? :D
