My favourites were: The Night Chicago Died by Paper Lace, Kung Fu Fighting by Carl Douglas, Wildwood Weed by Jim Stafford (didn't know what it was about until years later!!), Out on the Street by Space Waltz. <br />I know we had other Solid Gold albums, but this is the one I can remember listening to over and over! Loved it!!GimliNZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15575961441936090350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1397283877549529660.post-54596498146014625252011-05-11T22:48:07.438+12:002011-05-11T22:48:07.438+12:00shaun - i see its like a late at night - spin the ...shaun - i see its like a late at night - spin the vinyl - blog.Raenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1397283877549529660.post-45535154763914334742011-05-03T21:57:19.891+12:002011-05-03T21:57:19.891+12:00Thanks Mike- Love the Lou Reed clip.

Awful. Shirley Bassey has (thankfully) lost a lot of that super posh accent and has gone back to her welsh roots - hurrah! But Eddie Floyd, I love you man. I'm the biggest Bowie fan ever, but Eddie's version is well the better one.Jacknoreply@blogger.com
