AppyDAZE Posted November 22, 2020 Report Share Posted November 22, 2020 Found this only today. ******* top tune, and a really decent band written off as pop fodder. Let's have some of your lost classics in this genre. Alternate title: Best pop rock records never to chart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, that took me back to, literally, one of the 'sounds of the 60s' (the 'pop sound) and what a good track it was. I see Nick Lowe was part of Brinsley Schwartz.
