Kidney Bingos - The Music Of Wire
Introduction I think I first came across Wire on the "Live At The Roxy London WC2 - Jan - Apr 77" album, where two of their songs, "Lowdown" and "12XU", were featured. The album was a great live punk document but while their sound was very raw, for me, Wire stood out as being different and it turned out that they progressed while generally staying out of the mainstream and are still creating music today.

It made Burgh successful and known worldwide. He wrote the song in reference to his wife Diane, who used to come and listen to him at the hotel his parents owned. This song became a hit worldwide and became Burgh’s best-selling single and his signature song. It reached number one in Canada, the UK, the Republic of Ireland, Norway, and Flanders, Belgium. In 1987 it charted in the US and became Burgh’s third UK hit single.

The Wonderful Saw Doctors
Introduction I was first made aware of The Saw Doctors when my friend Mike O'Brien (CEO of Opencast and partner in Mog On The Tyne Cat Cafe) told me about the cover of the album "If This Is Rock And Roll, I Want My Old Job Back" which featured their dads on the front cover and the band on the back cover in identical poses. I was in Sunderland and bought a copy from Volume (another sadly missed record shop) and I completely loved it.
