As with Robbie Williams, their best stuff isn't the singles. Flame was an eye opener.

c) A Panther falling down a moving escalator whilst being buggered by a gorilla.

Nod looks like a kind of rock n roll John Thaw in that vid.

Mama get your coat on, you're nicked but we all crazee now

I have seen the film and read the book. The book's even grittier.

One thing I noticed a while back is that where many lead singers strap on a guitar and strum a few chords occasionally, Noddy is really quite a decent guitarist in his own right.

Saw them in 1980 in Exeter..

They were very loud. Drummer smashed his kit up at the end.

Must get hold of a copy of their film, what was it? Flame or something...

They were a great band and much better than 'Merry Xmas Everybody' would suggest.

They were far better than they get credit for now, and were huge in their heyday.
