Hi, thanks for this great website dedicated to Jangle POP and C 86. I really agree to most stuff in your Top 70, but I miss a few, including Hurrah "Hip-Hip", Passmore Sisters "Dance this house down", English McCoy "Give me something to believe in", Laugh "Paul Mc Cartney" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deCBv3b_3d4), Episode 4 "Strike up matches", The Chesterfields "Sweet Revenge", Reserve "Two hearts beat in a hole", April Showers "Abandon Ship" and The Gol Gappas "Dinner with Nougat".
I´m glad that I picked up most stuff until the Internet and Ebay killed Record Shops and Fairs.
If you get the chance, you should check out German Band New Colours. Awesome mid 80´s stuff. Take care. Christian from Cologne.
At the time I did my top 70 I didn't know the English McCoy song. I think now it would be in there around no.37.
"Abandon Ship" was released on a major label which is why it didn't feature. Contenders had to be on indie labels.
You mention some other good songs. I like the Gol Gappas and Chesterfields very much but that Episode 4 single remains out of reach on my cautious budget.
I like the New Colours. I have one LP by them.I intend to get the other one when it next appears on ebay or somewhere similar.
All the best.
Dear Rupert, I have to admit that the Episode 4 is one of the few C 86 items left on my Want List. I give it a regular play on my iPod though.
All the best
Christian
