Bombastic Fantastic

 


We have been spending a lot of time at Mrs CC's mums recently. This means that we have been watching Emmerdale and Coronation Street for the first time in ages.

In a recent episode of Emmerdale a scene was featured involving a number of the cast participating in a Paintball game. To accompany this the song Cherry Bomb by The Runaways was blaring out much to my enjoyment.

Some Cherry songs I thought but a quick check  showed that I have already done this in August 2022.

Bombs it is then. In addition to The Runaways  I give you The Jam, The Clash and The Blind Boys of Alabama.

Bombastic Fantastic indeed.


Hello Dad, Hello Mum ....


The Runaways - Cherry Bomb

The Jam - ' A' Bomb in Waldour Street

  1. That Blind Boys of Alabama is the second-best tune posted on a blog today

    1. I suspect he is referring to Muddy Waters but is too modest to say so.

    2. For me, the only song by the Clash that tops Spanish Bombs is (White Man) in Hammersmith Palais. - Brian
