Please don't tell me that, for you, they do. Edited by Cucking Funt (18 Oct 2016 5.00pm) Wife beating may be socially acceptable in Sheffield, but it is a different matter in Cheltenham

I saw Phil Collins when he was "just the drummer" in Genesis at the Greyhound in Croydon. Very soon after, Genesis became a relatively popular prog-rock band. Collins seemed to completely change his style of drumming once he became more commercial; in Genesis he'd been quite technical & prog-rockish, but in the commercial stuff he completely changed to the "In the Air Tonight" heavy-handed style. Anyone else remember Sunday night gigs at The Greyhound? I saw Dr Feelgood there and a Scottish band called Glencoe that were always put in if a band cancelled- rather like a supply teacher, and like supply teachers, it often didn't go well for them.

Abba appreciation society (not that I exactly subscribe to it) is steadily emerging , based if anything on fact alone. No:2 behind Queen in British long player CD sales alone certified. Abba 'nother go, ye of little faith....

Absolutely love it [Link] Try this live clip from 3 sides live Michaela. It is fanfcukingtastic. Phil shares the drumming with Chester Thompson... awesome combo. Phil's singing is powerful and is perfectly complemented by Tony Bank's keyboards and Mike Rutherford's guitar work.
