A brilliant band with awesome song writing skills sorely missed in todays Simon Cowel's f*****g world of shit pop! I can't wait for the next generation of LA's
@stephentube9000 - nice one mate- what was the deal with the glasgow gig and how did you get to hear about it? he's not still hanging about with Doherty is he? nowt good will come of that i.m.h.o..
just been listening to the callin all boxset and as was when i was younger and as is now it blew me away hearing mavers,a true one off no doubt about it.thank you for the music.
This song is beautiful, and the video accompanying it brings it to a different level. Upsets me everytime I watch/heaer this...looks like we'll never know :(
its just raw, clean and perfect. i saw lee mavers in heebie jeebies last year and he said hes working on new material, whether or not we will hear any of it remains to be seen, the guy is a legend
I had that 4 track too and this was my fave track off of it, along with a track called (I think) "come in come out" which they used the riff in another song on the album. Hemmings used to play it boss live. Good to see Timmo is not forgotten as well.
i think by this point fame wasnt for him!! which may i add is was and always will be the biggest shame in british music history!! the b-side alone would make a top ten list in the best albums of all time!!!
I bought the There She Goes 4 track EP (which contained this song)in 1988 purely because i thought the band looked cool on the cover.I had no idea what they sounded like.I struck lucky.This was my favourite song on it and it is still a wonderful piece of music.
@spinningchurro I'd agree with this is it wasn't for all the 'false dawns' that have come and gone. But people are right. The guys a fookin' genius La. I bet Noel Galagher wishes he could write material half as good as this.
Another superb Las track I'd never heard. Just when the familiarity with The Las stuff makes you take them a little for granted you get reminded what a genuine genius Mavers was/is.
I've liked the La's for over 20 years and have some how managed to miss this tracks. It's an absolute cracker - thanks for posting - nice vid as well, mate.
can someone tell me why the la's are not bigger than jesus right now? i mean, they are the closest band to the beatles in terms of great songs! i love oasis but these guys are just different class..... lee mavis is 100% genius, a word that is used to often in describing albums these days but this guy carrys the tag like it's a chip on his shoulder! if his album isn't what he wanted it to sound like then by god i would pay good money to hear it when it's recorded right!!
@Garethfeb16 Hello, I'm Japanese. I'm very very interested in The La's. Then,I have a question to you:I'm going to listen to their music. Then, are there any songs I should listen to except the Album?? Please tell me...and please forgive me for my poor English...
@naniwanojoe Your english is 100% better than my japanese mate lol. Type in "the la's callin all" the album has 27 tracks on there but there are 91 versions of the 27 tracks. There are other tracks on here like the kitchen tapes which are difficult to hear and very sketchy but the ideas in the tapes sound like a great second album! Kampai :-)

Wow, the pictures going along with the song (probably my favourite La's song!) made for a teary-eyed video. Top job!
Saw Lee play last night in Glasgow. Looked well and played a great gig. So let's all smile and be glad the man's still feeling it!

@Garethfeb16 Jesus is a work of fiction that people exaggerate to the state of greatness.
The La's were born great, so the myth needs no embellishment.
