Re: Dave's Curio Corner
The B-side was good too, 'Communications Breakdown', a fast banjo number.

Are they in English or Kryptonite?Gill the Piano wrote:I've got 2 books of Paddy Roberts songs if you ever want to learn any!
You've certainly gotten me into him now. Was he a pianist as well as a singer??

Re: Dave's Curio Corner
I only came across it because I was looking for the B-side, Mike's own composition Woodhenge.

Re: Dave's Curio Corner
Mike Oldfield doesn't have the credit he should have as a modern composer. Though he's only ever sung on the B side of 'Moonlight Shadow'.

Re: Dave's Curio Corner
I actually make an inaccuracy, on 'Tubular Bells' he (Mike Oldfield) makes drunken troll-like noises into the microphone in the Bootleg Chorus.

Found it; Hungarian song called Gloomy Sunday.

That's not the British acid jazz organist I'm talking about.
