Tracklisting[]

  • File 1 start of show
JP: "For those of you who missed the football scores tonight, it's Norwich 1, Liverpool 3. That means Johnson 2, Dalglish 1.
William: "Kenny Dalglish is magic!"
JP: "Ah, you're right William."
JP: "Recorded at Cargo Studios, Rochdale. But isn't everything these days?"
JP: "Rather rum really, you know. I mean some days I like it, other days I don't."
JP: "Used to have a copy of the single of that, you know, the original single when I lived in America. I had a really good collection of... really odd 1960s American singles by little bands... and I had the whole lot nicked. Heartbreaking. Wish I'd still got 'em."
JP: "That is a very good record for singing along with, it must be said."
