A great memory was one of Fletcher's verbal jousts with Winters in a compelling ''Celebrity Squares'.Fletcher had Winters beaten with a volley of quips before Rushton moved in to 'stop the contest' as it were.Fletchers later days involved moving into the Gardening Genre,never the same man though....

On the conversation of Joy Division and New Order.
I think they two different kettle of fish.
JD were the answer to post punk blues, they were the pioneers and catalyst to a musical revolution and the genius that is Ian Curtis took a lot of drugs which opened up stuff in his mind, he shouldnt of seen.
Love Will Tear Us Apart is one of those instantly recogniseable songs, its opening guitar sound is beautiful and the song just makes you wanna drift and drop.
Also Transmission is fanasatic, 'Bang, Bang, Bang On The Radio'
NO put the rock music into dance, i.e. Blue Monday. They are brilliant and
possibly because Curtis went this meant the rest could put their input.
However any serious music fan should have one of eachs albums in their collection.

Thanks a lot Highland, since this thread I have re-discovered my love of the pogues and it is now on constant play in the car. You are so right about rainy night in soho, listened to it and fell in love all over again. Deep lyrics for a pissed b@stard!!

I had respect for Strummer,although never having ever been a big Clash fan,until saw him once 'singing' lead vocals for The Pogues for the then suspended MacGowan at the De Mont.To put it bluntly he was a fecking embarrasment,it just made me cringe and I walked out half way through.I can still hear him today absolutely 'murdering 'Rain Street'. :-(

Yeah, but he makes up with it with so many other classics. I went to see him play at the Charlotte the year that he died. One word sums it up...Amasing.
Never a replacement for the mighty Shane in the Pogues though! I have to agree with you!
What about Sting, do we think he is good or a complete arse monger!

Not fussed about Sting...'dull' is the word that springs to mind.May I suggest he goes to his 'Fields of Gold' and fecking stays there.
