One of the best ones on The Circus, though (if a bit sad)

Should have been a single without doubt.

I just put favourite songs!

I have all but one of the Erasure albums (including The Two Ring Circus). I don't know what its called, but it is either due for release soon or has already been released.

I have a load of limited edition 12" Erasure singles too, and I have been to a few of their concerts! My missus especially likes Andy Bell's outfits!

I'm a bit of an Erasure fan!

the two ring circus were a compilation of producer 'Flood' mixes i used to have it sadly lost all my vinyl to the ex whom refused to give em back, i also has the abba-esque Ltd ed 12" .

After all this they may make a comeback the winner of stars in your eyes was Andy Bell lol.

"Good Rockin' Tonight" - Wynonie Harris. The most important single of the post-war era. Without it, there would be no rock/pop music as we know it.

Just found one that I hope was released in England but I don't know because its on the Country charts here
" Remember when" by Alan Jackson.

great track-but jackie brenstons"Rocket 88"is supposedly the first r@roll record ever made in1954,

Wynonie Harris · 29-03-2005, 09:52

Yeah, "Rocket 88" is a great single, especially with Ike Turner's superb guitar playing. However, "Good Rockin' Tonight" was made a full seven years before and effectively made the breakthrough from rhythm & blues to rock & roll with its storming beat and slapback bass. It certainly impressed a young truck driver in Memphis called Elvis Presley who covered it in 1954 as one his very first singles on Sun Records.

Cashman, I learnt some of my musical knowledge from listening to the older guys talking music on the Deck!
