Why a talking head . . . . . . . ?
I totally remember the impact of this Melvin Bragg interview as part of the profile on Talking Heads on The South Bank Show 1979 and was totally smitten with the band and had followed them ever since though we had all bought 1977 when it came out . . . . . I REALLY want to live in a loft like the band clearly did way back then . . . .you would have to be millionaires now. . . .which is handy I guess!
Pete Brown and Piblokto - Golden Country Kingdom [ Things May Come and Things May Go But the Art School Dance Goes on Forever] | jt1674
Always loved Pete Brown and came across him first through poetry (I know right?) but then I thought who is this guy writing with the Cream albums? Then with Jack (Bruce that is y’all) on his own. Saw Piblokto several time precocious little shit that I was . . . something was happening? Art School Dance was a great album and some of us got left behind there . . . . . .

Danceclass - The Tube 1983
The fantastic Danceclass - on The Tube (Jan 1983 , Series 1 Episode 12)DANCECLASS : Dave Taggart vocals, Tony Mcananey bass , Ali Reay guitar and Trevor Brewis drums.For more info: https://danceclassuk.comAt the end I've added 2 live recordings of varying lo-fi quality. Not sure about what the first one was from, but the second is a Radio 1 in concert session around this time.(Many thanks to youtuber Lol-Z who is uploading a ton of old The Tube shows from the 80s, which this has mainly come from.See his stuff on: / davisxl1 )From their website:After an untold amount of live work in their native North East of England, they were finally snapped up by A&M RECORDS in 1981 and the DANCECLASS album was recorded and released in 1982. Produced by Mike Chapman, the album failed to capture the raw energy of their live sound but there is no getting away from the fact that these were indeed brilliantly crafted songs for their genre. Penned by Dave Taggart and Tony Mcananey with additional material by Ali Reay, the DANCECLASS repetoire of highly energetic and often humurous powertunes have stood the test of time
