Dance, dance, dance to a band that must like Bauhaus.

The British Rock and Roll Empire on which the sun never sets.
You still have bands wanting to be the next Bauhaus, Joy Division or The Gang of Four.
I've listened to that to death. Great. Robyn Hitchcock's post SBs solo stuff also excellent...
Hey Sir Bix Of Bixaceous —
Hast thou ever deigned to witness yon good chap Mr Hitchcock in a live setting, myesss myess?
@InUnfunky @TheAbbotTrithemius
I have not seen him.
If my son was around, he would have liked to see him w/ me.
@TheAbbotTrithemius
He has great solo / Venus stuff. but the 2 Soft Boys LP's are all-time magical to me.
It’s been right there — under my nose, NOT thumb — all along…and I just haven’t seen it.
You’re an Anglophile.
Now’s the time, the time is now.
Let’s celebrate and confirm your status —
@InUnfunky
I AM an Anglophile.
Big Star just wanted to be Badfinger.
@Bix @InUnfunky straight up👍
@InUnfunky It is not blasphemy. Big Star was an Anglophile band. They must have been Badfinger fans. @CanisPundit

@Bix @InUnfunky I have the disc 🤣😄 and ‘Ass’ and ‘Airwaves’ and … and I met Tom Evan’s when his version toured (a bit of a prick), Tony Kaye was on keys; just before Yes ‘90125’ was released.
@CanisPundit @InUnfunky
CANIS,
YOU HAVE TO GET ALL OF THE BADFINGER LPs, ALL OF THEM.
@Bix @InUnfunky mission accomplished. And even Pete Hamm’s Gilders Green demos on CD. Have you forgotten who you were messaging? 🤣
@CanisPundit @InUnfunky @grayman
I am a BIG Badfinger fan.

Happy 50th, "Radio City."
Everyone who told me I was missing out? They were CORRECT.

@InUnfunky @CanisPundit @Bix I didn't know about Big Star until I was 35 or so. I have made every effort to make up for that lapse in my education. They are awesome.
@pr10n @InUnfunky @CanisPundit
Cool.
Trey didn't know about them until I loaned him my BMG Compact Disc Club CDs.

It has been months since I have played The Soft Boys. I need my fix. Here is a link to the 1980's Underwater Moonlight 40-track edition.
