Thanks. I'd forgotten exactly what the looked like - just a vague impression of short spiky hair and checked shirts, but then that's what most of my favourite bands looked like...
I saw them several times - we thought the ironing board was particularly cool - not that we'd have said "cool" back then.
wow, it's baz, marc, stan & frog. I've been on the look out for some more fb stuff, having been a big fan in my formative years, and having had some correspondence with them over their tours...
Such a beautiful song,which had both a Backs life and an EMI reincarnation.What a rare find - is this the Old Grey Whistle Test? I love your introduction - beautifully said,and so very true.Thankyou so much for sharing these gems of lads.Reminds of why the 80s were so great.Cheers.
I was humming this today and had to hear it! It's just as I remember it this song but I couldn't remember how the band looked! Thanks for uploading!

If YouTube have messed this about, why don't you delete this, and then reupload it. Hopefully that should sort it.
Please do, this is a rare gem !!
