One of my favourite bands evah!
From the days when they had a brass section. Which was their USP IMHO (T & F LA alert )
Rather lost enthusiasm when they became just another pub rock band with a great back catalogue.
And Parker's solo output has been rather lacklustre too. He's still going though.

I've a mild preference for Stick to Me which has such a live feel. Not surprising considering the production disasters befalling the original tapes.
Best gig evah too - on the Stick to Me tour in Bristol. I had a raging toothache but from the opening StM brass intro they were right on it and I was anaethsetised for the duration.
