Godley & Creme The Sporting Life

[baldrbraa]

Do. Not. Disturb.

[rwk1983]

A Legendary Lost Masterpiece???.......... come one people its great, its fucking great BUT i think thats pushing it. My highest compliment is "its as good as anything Zappa did, Even if its admittedly inspired (almost stolen) from him" L = 4 stars on a conservative scale IMO

P.S. I love this album, im just more honest with myself.

[54HarryB]

I had this album once and still love it.

[200405InVision]

Amazing!

[WeTheStrange]

Wonderfully weird and off the wall. One of the highlights of my dark teenage years.

[machnetron]

for god sake, get a camera.. Before the bastard drops..

[DavidMichaelDurham]

More goes on on this recording than you're likely to hear on the average ten recordings by mainstream artists.

[BluntRapture]

Their Darkside of the Moon. Densely packed and wildly overproduced to perfection. Brilliant.

[geoffhummerstone]

supreme LP...

[BluntRapture]

This is one of those rare and brilliant lost treasures, like Mental Notes by Split Enz; Solid Pleasure by Yello; or Nina Hagen's Nunsexmonkrock.

I played this and the next one, Freeze Frame, endlessly.

Until, I guess, yeah: it ended.

THIS SONG IS ABOUT KILLING ONE'SSELF !

[mitchikaboola]

I rushed to buy this album when it came out. Played it until I drove all my family crazy. A pal came round to hear it said 'WTF?' and left scratching his head. It is, as other posters have said, a lost masterpiece. Terrific and thank you for posting here.

[sonicdeath10]

Desert island disc.

[ClassicalGuitar1111]

A masterpiece!

[astrophonix]

Love Paul Gambaccini as the 'bad samaritan'!

[windsor4059]

I'm suprised the grooves on my disk haven't worn out...bought this as a cut out in 1981...still going strong, love this stuff.

[sonicdeath10]

L is the stand out album from their discography. Freeze Frame is pretty good but not quite L.

[machnetron]

THE musical masterminds behind 10cc... Still one of my favourite albums.. Tnx 4 sharing this pice of art.

[bonnie43uk]

I actually shook Kevin Godley's hand when he appeared on Top of the pops in 1981.

Thats my claim to fame.

[Topographer]

Right. L is a lost masterpeice.

Fantastic record.

[svenghoulieil]

Great memories of walking Venice Beach with one of the first Sony Walkmans with this playing and people asking me what that was I had on!

[peiper1ss]

These pair were the most underated of the 70`s and 80`s. Great music, taking the mickey out of the music business. Brilliant stuff. Thanks for sharing such a gem. Just bought it again, this time on CD. It is shame  10cc were never the same after they left the band, but God, did they give me some listening pleasure in my teens

[rocmash]

u are the best for sharing this amazing song. thank u

[snarfwhistle123]

A legendary record that has been tragically overlooked. Thanks for sharing it!

[vfiles1]

I love this song - my favourite from Godley & Creme. Absolutely brilliant.....thank you for sharing this gem!

[smozzz]

everything on L is great. The lyrics and music are fresh and creative, and work together for a complete piece of music.

[JoeyM1982]

Haven't heard this in so long. Brilliant.

[BobbyColePopMusic]

Brilliant Godley and Creme LP.

My favorite of their solo material.

[ANDRUREEVE]

"Give a little...when you go..."

[shame69]

Absolutely brilliant. L is the great lost masterpiece. 31 years on and it still sounds fresh as a daisy.

Although it sounds like it was recorded in the most expensive studio in the world, it was actually taped in a 16 track studio above a Co-op in Leatherhead.
