No apparent proper LP playlist on Youtube.

Maybe someone can create one from these meticulously selected tracks. hmm

Anyway, this is a personal favourite of mine and one I think (hope) will unite all Wendigans of every colour and stripe in a glorious kaleidoscope of 'out-and-proud early '80s-ness.

Power synth-pop masterminded by Shelley and Rushent.

Side A

A1 - Homosapien

A2 - Yesterday's Not Here

A3 - I Generate A Feeling

A4 - Keats song

A5 - Qu'est-ce Que C'est Que Ça

Side B

B1 - I Don't Know What It Is

B2 - Guess I Must Have Been In Love With Myself

B3 - Pusher Man

B4 - Just One of Those Affairs

B5 - It's Hard Enough Knowing

Maybe we should do a Peter Shelley album too, for purposes of contrast. Excited

I'm going to check his albums out, on Wikipedia, right now. Excited

It turns out that, officially, he never released any albums. rant

He did, however, produce the first Alvin Stardust album and wrote most of the songs for it, including its singles. Therefore, I think we can count that as a Peter Shelley album. Excited

It's just occurred to me that Alvin Stardust was named after Ziggy Stardust, which is appropriate, as Ziggy Stardust was based on Vince Taylor, and Alvin Stardust's image was basically identical to that of Vince Taylor.

So if Alvin Stardust was merely a persona, how come there was that letter in Viz 30 years ago about serving Alvin Stardust in a petrol station and seeing that his credit card had ALVIN STARDUST on it?

The power of the Alvin Stardust persona was so great that it had the power to bend the minds of bank managers.

Add to new playlist, repeat for each song, and then under your videos there should be a playlist created
