Well done Scott 🙂
Thanks William. Love early James.
Loved that. Thanks for re-posting.
Whilst we’re “off air” for a couple of weeks, we’d love you to dip into the old episodes of Paul’s novelty song podcast, The Head Ballet, such as this one about Sue Wilkinson’s amazing 1980 tune You've Gotta Be A Hustler If You Wanna Get On with guest Catrin Lowe plinkhq.com/i/1516546969...
Listening now. Same as Catrin, I first became properly aware of it due to TOTP repeats (UK Gold in the ‘90s).
Great song that more people should know about.
Yeah same time for me too and those are my favourite tracks as well.

Just had to be "Twilight Cafe" to start the first show #BackToThe80sSF www.mixcloud.com/live/simon-f...
#BackToThe80sSF about to start on this link:
New live weekly show starting this evening at around 7.45. "Back To The '80s" with my friend Simon Fairgrieve on Mixcloud. As long as it's from the '80s and not played too often he will play it. Requests welcome #BackToThe80sSF
By the way, you have both inspired me and my friend Mike to sort out the ‘70s number ones which we have just completed and will move on to the ‘80s soon 🙂
Ah, missed that bit, sorry. I just heard you say to Garry there hadn’t been a UK charting version before Timmy’s. My mistake.
@bigsort.bsky.social Brian Hyland’s version of Itsy Bitsy did chart in the UK. It got to number eight.
Thanks William 🙂
Thanks William. Quite mellow compared to what I usually choose but still a nice song 🙂
Thanks William, and well done to you and @crystal22.bsky.social for yours too 🙂
He’s at it again tonight 😩
Certainly is.
I don’t get why anyone would think that people are lying about the #forgotten80s situation. Everyone loved the show, they would hardly do this just to get it cancelled!
Thanks William 🙂
Yeah he’s a mate of Rudd’s I believe.
From 1980
Thanks William. “Tonight Matthew, we’re going to be The Beatles” 😄.
Prefer their actual follow-up to “Danger Games”, “Holding Me Tight” but it missed the Top 75 in late ‘82.
#forgotten80s
The end is nigh
Abuse of women is disgusting and to use your position to facilitate it is abhorrent . My sympathy is extended to all affected.
Until today I wasn't aware and for this im sorry. I would have spoken much sooner.
I will be joining others and being boycotting #forgotten80s hope we can still remain friends. More importantly woman's safety is the main thing.
