This is incredibly prescient , Brian Connolly along with his glam horde coming across as a mid 70's Nostradamus as he gets all arsey about Den and ticking him off for jumping off the Ultravox! train , 4 years before it actually happened ! smile

I have written a song about John Foxx called "The Glimmer Man" and in the lyrics are references to "Grey Suit" and "Tidal Wave".

The track is to be featured on the next Robo Cast Radio show and will also feature on my Foxx inspired album "The Grey Room" which funnily enough has a song about Gary Numan on to called "I Remember You".

So there you go!

Correct . Will Den ever quote The Sweet as one of his influences ? Great glam rock band I saw a Connolly- less Sweet at our mutual alma mater around 80 Pretty good but the look was terrible All poodle perms and tight simulated- leather boiler suits Valentino would have turned in his grave (or at least he will do when he snuffs it) Paved the way sartorially for Saxon Iron Maiden and Deff Leppard A crime against fashion which deserves at least 40 years in the dungeons !
Trivia fact I think (can't be arsed googling) that Sam McManus (taggart) was Brian Connolly's (half) brother
