Sailor - Glass of Champagne

[Parson Henry]

I heard this on the radio this morning.

I used to think it was a rip-off of Steve Harley's singing (If you call it singing that is) style and the musical arrangement of an early Roxy Music track.

Having heard it again it sounds great!!



Anyone else remember this song

Yep, one of my favourites from 75 !

I've got it on a 70's compilation CD which I have downloaded to my IPOD. (All the mod 21st Century stuff with me now !!!)

Remember their follow up ? something about Stiletto Heels ??

 

[Man of Harveys]

I was more of a "Girls Girls Girls" man myself though

Oh yeah ! forgot about that one, the Stiletto heels thing must have been a follow up to "Girs Girls Girls"

 

[Man of Harveys]

Only held off the number one spot by Bohemian Rhapsody and Abba's Mamma Mia, pop pickers!

Funnily I think I saw them supporting Steve Harley at the Dome in about 1948.

[Hampden Park]

A bonus point for the name of the lead singer. No web searches please.

First record I ever bought.

 

[The Large One]

Good f***ing grief you lot.

I though you lot ROCKED. Now I see you're just a bunch of pipe-smoking, pink slipper-wearing side-partinged ponypoofs. You'll be praising the awesome rock monoliths Captain & Tenille and Neil Sedaka next.

 

[Gwylan]

It was something like George Krajanus...a weird name anyway.

I quite liked "Love will keep us together"

That explains your civvies Foxy.
All together now.....let's do the time warp!

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

And Oh Carol.




It should be quite a sight at the Brighton Centre with all the 40 plussers (waistbands and age) shuffling from foot to foot and gingerly punching the air singing "hope I die before I get old".

Behave! Every single thing about it was absolutely HIDEOUS!

well remembered Gwylan - not sure about the spelling though

 

[HAMPSHIRE DAVE]

Just to add weight(Alot in my case) with all this talk of mid 70's stuff.
They played WE GONNA MAKE YA A STAR.(David Essex 1974)
at work today.
Yer the bloke was never trendy BUT SO WHAT!
Great record and a hell of alot better than the James C**t shit

Or that drum'n bass,garage pish.
That's my rant over for the day!!
