You gave the most perfect tribute to frank sidebottom (Chris Sievey) tonight. The change of lyric from UK to "Timperley" was perfect and from a warm hearted love for him.
Such a great version. I fear that record companies will stop signing artists like this. I mean look at our charts who is number 1 N-Dubz!! I would rather pull out everyone of my toe nails than be subjected to that tripe!!
@westwatermd The four major record labels are looking to make as much money as possible. Music has hardly anything to do with it. you'll find that they own a lot of the smaller record labels that sign & release more creditable musicians, but they're are a big smart companies which have formed a kind if monopoly on the music industry. Even with all the money they're loosing from illegal downloads they are smart and have a new policy which involves taking more of the artists money from touring.
I want to get my music out there!! This is one way that I can promote myself at this time. If you like this artist then you may like my songs too. The latest songs I've written 'Bigger than me' and 'Open' are starting to gain a lot of interest.
Damon, another awseome track on another awsome albumn by a truely gifted musician. History should have you up there above Lennon, McCartney, Jagger & Richards.Maybe even Ray Davies.
this is an all time classic,he performed an acoustic gig at a chip shop in my home town of grimsby u.k. i was on holiday at time and missed it gutted...
