This just needs to make it, baby, make it.

Okay Temiz - Denizaltı Rüzgarları

Madness - One Step Beyond



Well, a lot of things have come to light about this song. Suggs wasn't really in the band. As you probably suspected, the saxophone is a little bit out of tune. And that step they do, which would later become synonymous with their 'nutty boy' alter egos, was borrowed from Ian Dury & the Blockheads. But Prince Buster just died, another victim of the remorseless soul-eater that is 2016, and fuck it, it's Madness.

Independents - I Love You, Yes I Do



Originally the B side to Leaving Me, I Love You, Yes I Do was one of the first records that made the record companies take notice of the emerging disco movement.

Ballet Zoom - Cats



The very fine line between brilliant and horrendous. So many great ideas, except the part where it deals with cats.

Mel Torme & Buddy Rich on the Merv Griffin Show (1979)
