British Music

[Ssbbw4u1974]

I'm having a night listening to some real classics from pretty famous British bands and I'm curious, how many of non-British people here, have some favourite Brit bands?

Let me know what band does it for you and what songs.

Anyone for Oasis? Arctic Monkeys? Queen? AC/DC?

Depeche mode, the cure, yaz... I love British 80s alternative

Wow!! Super good. I had to listen to it all the way thru. Damn. Wish I was high listening to that. I will check out some of their other stuff. Great song.

Not all their stuff is the same style but did some great stuff, glad you liked it

From the 1980's :

Not sure if any of you have heard of this band?

Thanks for sharing! I’d never heard this song nor the band. Cool pop/disco song. Reminds me of music growing up!!

I googled it and saw Alan Hawkshaw was in that band.

I know this song by him.

Yes he was for a couple of years a full member and used to help out on later recordings, sadly died a couple of years ago.
Their first keyboard player, later Francis Monkman who died recently.

I always liked this genre - boot boy music. This song is on one of my bootboy comps and here’s is the description:

“Take some '66 Pete Townsend power chords, lyrics about going down the terraces on a Saturday afternoon with mates looking for a "punch up" as played by a band composed of flares and braces wearing bootboys and mods; then you have a basic component of the skinhead oi! ethos in it's embryonic stage. Jook put out five glam and power pop-tinged singles between '72 and '74 & a posthumous EP in '78, from which this 1974 song is taken. They clearly wrote from direct experience, in the language of their brethren in the Different (working) Class.

Stacia…

Stacia isn't doing much, but I like her make-up and I like the bubble machine

Love the military salute. Very sexy.

I believe she had a 52” chest. I’m not a big boob kinda guy, but always found her sexy.
