If anyone has read The Enormity of Small Things, the sixth issue of Your Heart Out, then hopefully their attention was grabbed by mention of a Vic Godard session recorded for Gary Crowley's show on Capital Radio back in 1986, which included this cracking version of The Devil's In League With You. And there's more where that came from.
But does anyone want to hear more? Well, you've gotta persuade me. I'm going to be a mean, mean man, and will give away a free CD of the whole session to the person who comes up with the best response to this, and indulges in the finest piece of one-upmanship in true Terry-Thomas/Ian Carmichael fashion.
looks like it's just me then which is a relief cos my brain's mush

As for me, exit stage left, muttering about philistines and when I were a lad we'd have been fighting in the streets to get out mitts on an exclusive Vic Godard CD.

A true story for you PC. Back in the days when people had jobs, the company I was working for ran a competition in conjunction with a national newspaper. Entrants simply had to ring in and leave their details. At the end of the first there had been just one call. People were a bit down. One colleague suggested there may be a problem with the phone line. Oh no, said our boss, I tried the number first thing this morning. Erm ...

Yes please. Might stop me from feeling like that bloke at parties who whoops it up and shouts: "C'mon one more time" - only to turn round and notice everybody else has packed up and gone home!
ReplyDeleteit's up finally - sorry for the diabolical delay

Nice one. Hey I won a Vic competition once. Sort of. Robert Elms years ago asked what the first Subway Sect single was and someone won by ringing in saying Ambition and so I rang in all indignant to complain but hadn't realised I was put straight through to Robert live on air. Very embarrassing.
