Baba O-Reilly-ish ending.

Track 8 - White City Fighting.

Title track.

Is this Runrig?

What, White City?

My point exactly.

You've never been to White City.

Have you ever been to Fagley?

I've been through it, on a coach.

I'm not sure how that makes any sense.

Unless it was a t*pless tour bus with a person on a microphone saying "and, on the left you will see the world famous Springbok pub"...

Is there an ambitious, over-produced, mid-'80s concept album by a major rock star written about it and called "Fagley"?

Ending is better than the song.

You're getting insufferable again.

Isn't it next to where the BBC used to live?

This is starting to look like a Subreddit.

Last track - Come to Mama.

You never weren't.

You must've come down Wood Lane towards Shepherds Bush.

Or the other way, fleeing back up North.

Either way, you would've passed it.

So, I'll let you off.

It is over.

It was competent but uninspired, with a cold edge that left one feeling excluded.

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

I shall give it 3 stars.

Blinking Ada!

This is what it looked like when the exhibition was on.



I don't think I've ever seen it depicted like that.

Anyway, I suppose my pedantry about the White City Estate is indicative of how disinterested with the album I became after the, really brill, opening track.

I think that it was almost a repeat of how I experienced the gig back in the '80s.

A sense of looming alienation from and with disenchantment with that whole crowd.

I was joking.

Really.
