Early 80's was my most prolific gig going time 👍

👍

Often came up in conversations over the years, having an almost untouchable mystique about it, and having never seen it previously, it remained that way until last night.
For all the hype, appears I wasn't really missing anything at all.
Perhaps I'll read the book one day 👍

When it comes to Dinky cars, they don't come much dinkier than this.
The original and the best #FIAT 500 Cinquecento.

👍
2 years since I last played it, enjoying once again.

A CLOCKWORK ORANGE - (1971)
⭐⭐⭐
Last night's #Movie Directed by Stanley Kubrick & starring Malcolm McDowell. I decided to persevere and watch in its entirety. Being honest, I find it hard to believe Kubrick made this but, obviously he did. Terrible movie way overhyped.
Shockingly bad in fact imho.

SIMPLE MINDS - 'Sons and Fascination'/'Sister Feelings Call' album (1981)
The 4th studio album, a double album, produced by Steve Hillage. Includes the singles, 'The American', 'Love Song' & 'Sweat in Bullet'. The album reached No.11 in the UK.

Of course, hence why I asked, cheers Olly 👍

Cheers Mark 👍

Cheers for the feedback 👍

OK, perhaps I needed to give a little longer, 10 mins is hardly fair of me is it?😂

CLOCKWORK ORANGE - (1971)
Made an attempt to watch this for the 1st time last night, gave it 10 minutes and just new it wasn't going to be for me. Will I watch it before I one day kick the bucket? Maybe, who knows. What do others think, worth it or not?

Instrumental in oh so many ways 👍

Good Monday Morning…have a wonderful start to the Week!

Oh good Mark, would hate to think I hadn't got your support on this vital component of my strategy 😂

Equally so true.
Might be time for US voters to be given cognitive tests prior to voting, given the impact they have on the rest of us mere mortals 😂

Sadly true Mark, as with many others in the US who spoke out and warned, but yet still.

Landmark single 👍
Still sounds fantastic all these years on.
The album for me, a game changer too.

Many factors imo, Trevor Horn and a number of others were certainly instrumental. An interesting question, one that could be answered perhaps more eloquently by many more better positioned people than I. Still, a great question.

God forgive me, but I really can't argue with this.

Certainly.
