Television Personalities - Smashing Time 7'' (1980)

The third single from The Television Personalities. They did some wonderful tunes and are still going today but this one is amongst their very best in my humble opinion as is King And Country too. Pop-tastic classics actually.


Tracks


1) Smashing Time
2) King And Country

It's King and Country for me longy, but their best in my eyes and ear has got to be the Painted Word album, a master piece.

Always had a fondness for "I Know Where Syd Barret Lives" but Nuzz is bang on with "The Painted Word" it's class.

Now a request if I may be so bold some years ago I used to own a 7" single by a band called The Sex Beatles called "Well You Never" which allegedly has some Robyn Hitchcock involvement...Do you have a copy? or maybe someone else who visits here may have it. If anyone does I would be eternally grateful. Cheers

I love The Painted World as well. I always remember it being on the that SHELTER compilation video and thinking it was the best thing on it.

Sorry Marky, I don't have the Sex Beatles - it rings a bell. Can anyone help Marky?
