Vague attempt to go Gospel at the end.

"Gospel choir" looks like it wouldn't know Gospel if it was hit over the back of the head with it.

Playing out with the Future Sound of London and a track I recognise not.

Clearly been listening to too much psychedelia.

It is over.

It was an undistinguished episode with the only highlight being by McAlmont and Butler.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

For some reason, they're singing Bluebirds Over the White Cliffs of Dover.

Double A-side innit.

I wonder if Yes ever did a song called McAlmont and Butler.

Some delightful information about Robson & Greene. What a Face

The duo...attracted criticism after it emerged that they did not sing parts of their recordings, which were patched with uncredited vocalists to achieve higher and steadier notes than they could achieve.

Session singer Des Dyer (formerly of the band Jigsaw) made the allegation that his was the voice on the record, and contacted RCA and a newspaper.

Although [Mike] Stock obtained a court injunction to stop Dyer from making the allegation, the head of BMG John Preston decided to pay Dyer £75,000 at Simon Cowell's behest, money that was then deducted from Stock's royalties.

Why does "&" show as "%26" in a Wikipedia address? Sly

I thought he said, "It's a dark show," but, in retrospect, I have decided he must have said, "It's a hot show."
