No messing about this week. It is just a good old straightforward Revolution - just plain and simple songs with only the word Revolution in the title.
At the start of this series SWC commented that he hoped that Leatherface's version of Talkin' Bout a Revolution and Revolution by Spaceman 3 would feature. I suggested he stayed tuned as at least one was up for consideration. Here's hoping he stuck with us.
Next up are a group of Scousers who were big in the 60's and 70's I wonder whatever happened to them.
Although they have been namechecked on these pages on a couple of occasions this is the first time that Los Lobos have made an appearance. It's a shame that it took a revolution for this to happen.
You are getting four for the price of three this week as we can't ignore Ernie's Reggae Revolutionaries.I am going through the list of songs that he very generously provided in order and by a simple twist of fate the next one up was Revolution by Dennis Brown. What are the odds on that?
Regular Friday night correspondent Spence is already manning the barricades if anyone cares to join him.
4 good tracks and that's the most unlike Los Lobos track I've EVER heard - almost to the point of asking whether you played the wrong track! The Beatles' Revolution is so iconic with its screeching intro into a chugga chugga song - always loved it. "You ask me for a contribution............but if you want money for people that hate All I can tell you is brother you have to wait" Sadly we're still overloaded with people who want to hate 50+ years later. No revolution there then!
