'Shindig'
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.
I also mentioned I generally just chalked up the occasional reference I didn't get - "Tony Jacklin golf clubs" and "Watney's Red Barrell" spring immediately to mind - were funny because they sounded funny.
Yeah, there's context (Tony Jacklin was a bit of an angry prat at the time, and his brand of clubs were inexpensive and low quality, while Watney's Red Barrell was crap bevvy of the underclass, but you can probably winkle that out), but it isn't vitally important.

I wrote about it in LiTG. In a sidebar.
I have all those comps and love them quite a bit. Bubble Pop is where I got one of my songs from the recently posted mixes, "The Late Late Show" by Clive Kennedy.
My favorite rare glam comps, though, are the two bootleggish CD-Rs by Ursula 1000 (available in NYC) and Glitter From the Litter Bin.
Glitterbest is fascinating for charting the late glam/proto punk era (around '75) where British rock was in transition. Cool track by the Tiger Lilys who later became Ultravox.

I posted several tracks at Buffistarawk under Rare Glam.
I can send you some of my glam comps (mostly rarer stuff, or mixed with lesser known favs by famous peeps) if you want.
I have a lot of glam.

Oh, I like that one. (The same as a song in your glam comp from last year, right?)

That's the group of tracks you posted last year, right? I downloaded all of those....

This is a T.Rex tribute/homage/ripoff, of course. But very well done.

Email it to me.
