    A brief resurgence - in a very different style -for Sweet.

    I used to go to school with Brian Connolly's nephew.

    That wouldn't be the late actor Mark McManus = Taggart's son?

    Loved Sweet!! Not my favourite of theirs by a long way but still a great song.

    Loved that Rod song too. Lyrics a bit dubious at times, but he done the 'rocky' numbers well back then. Looks like he raided Britt's make up bag prior to that one?

    Loved Brotherhood of Man's 'Figaro' (Guilty pleasure!). :o

    Love Smokie's song.

    Wishing On A Star - another great song.

    Really great show so far!

    Rod - meh

    BoM - awful

    Apart from that a pretty good show and a great No 1

    Mikie Most's period was definitely comign to an end around now.
    Smokie would hand off to Racey, IIRC.

    Funny, I was just thinking of Racey, having thought that Rod's video was a bit "racey"!

    I didn't know The Adverts at the time, but I was quite fond of TV Smith's next band - the Explorers.

    I liked the couple of audience members gamely pogo-ing along.

    It's the orchestra version again!
