Generation X on Top Of The Pops

Some Generation X for you from Top Of The Pops. Its a shame video recorders were not around when all the good punk stuff was around but thanks to UK Gold and the TOTP2 shows,alot of the vintage footage reappeared. Its a great shame they have to ruin most of the footage with all that stupid writing but beggars can't be choosers I suppose. All in one file you have Your Generation,Wild Youth,Ready Steady Go,2 performances of King Rocker and Valley Of The Dolls. Alas no Friday's Angel's though. 14 minutes long and 134mb.


Just a word on last night - well there was no Lurkers as mentioned below but a good night all round. I didn't bother watching Pineapple UK - too busy drinking and yapping outside. The Bus Station Loonies were as mad as ever but it was a great set. Theres a new Loonies album out in September too. As for Vice Squad,well I was very impressed. Beki looked stunning and I managed to have a good yap to her (and a couple of hugs and kisses :) Not many there and the ones that did bother didn't seem up for it but the longer the gig went on,the better it got. And I've got a raging hangover for my trouble too!

Generation X - Fridays Angels 7'' (1979)

The 6th single from Generation X. This came in red vinyl and compared to their previous 5 singles wasn't as good in my most humble one. I definately prefer the B sides here especially Trying For Kicks. No doubt about it though,in their prime Generation X were a great band and top musicians.



Tracks




1) Fridays Angels
2) Trying For Kicks
3) This Heat
