I was slightly taken by their track Adventures in a Yorkshire Landscape and so ended up acquiring a compilation which hasn't had many spins, to be fair.

Then you've got Television's exquisite Venus De Milo not to mention Venus in Blue Jeans (Jimmy Clanton (US) vs Mark Wynter (UK)) from 1962. George let you off lightly about the fantastic Be Bop Deluxe, don't believe everything (anything) you read on Google. I'd never describe BBD as prog rock - if anything they were a guitar rock band if you're looking for a category to put them in.Spencehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03161358428618350895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5834198189370622587.post-28694746870241788982021-04-30T22:27:11.598+01:002021-04-30T22:27:11.598+01:00Jet Silver is glam rock (or maybe art rock)

It appeared on the soundtrack to Queen's Gambit on Netflix recently.
