TOP OF THE CLASS


Found in a secondhand record shop in London for £25. A xmas present from the girlfriend as she saw me tugging a few raddled notes from my pocket and took charitable pity on me.
Daktari Swets on lead vocal, Pete Watt on vocals and guitar, Nick Calloway on lead guitar, Andy Hill on bass and Big G on drums made up The Form. Watch Out, a perky piece of punky pop, was released on Elephant records and has the catalogue number Tun 2 which is a teasing hint that there exists a Tun 1. One suspects they were fresh out of school, expelled or otherwise, in 1980 when this blast of juvenilia was released. Two other songs, London Underground and Start Again, lurk with potent intent on the B side. All worthy of a gold star.

Your blog great, I look forward to updating.

That's what google says it says.

But then those full stops that follow link to some dodgy adult websites (not that I clicked through to any, honest!). Before I started moderating comments I was getting these too, it was a bit of a pain deleting them. If you prefer not to moderate you can delete all trace by ticking the delete forever box so the 'removed by a blog administrator' message isn't left behind. Try it with this comment if you want,

Cheers, James.

Thanks,James.

I did have some dodgy link sent to me from Japanese (?) person/site before. Maybe this one is genuine. Like to think I'm reaching out to the world.

No, you are attracting perverts,(again) ha ha.
