Some people will probably disagree with that but that's just my personal opinion.



While Last Train to Clarksville might well end up on my Tracks They Should Never Have Recorded album, I cannot agree regarding Little Princesss; it's a lovely wee tune. It was Malc and his brother Colin's party piece and I used to love to watch them playing it.

Of their 80s tracks, some of the best were the vocals. Songs such as On A Night Like This and Treat Me Nice were great versions of those songs; neither of which would be suitable for an instrumental version.

Good response Spock.....the idea of the thread was for fun and debate and intrigue....daft? Maybe. But tons of members obviously thought it was ok.....:)
