Baggy trousers, hanging shirts, tentacles and Furry flirts! Ben and Tao reminisce about school days gone by after trying to get laid in supernatural dating sim, Monster Prom. The innuendo filled discussion bounces from hentai to bestiality, UK vs UK cultural touchstones to what constitutes critical acclaim, and a voiceless new contributor joins in from the wings: Tao’s mysteriously anonymous vampire girlfriend (or so he says). Both hosts profess to(o) much ignorance of online pornographic kinks, Ben finds dating every bit as tough as he remembers, and Tao surprises no-one revealing a Furry fetish. Sort of. No story spoilers. Content Warning: PEGI 13. An explicit, hypersexual discussion including many taboos and tone-deaf singing. Keep your pets locked up! Clarifications:The original soundtrack to Monster Prom was composed by Claudi MartinezWeebl’s Stuff was a 2002 era flash website.

„One Step Beyooooooond…!“ Extrem tanzbar, immer etwas schräg und nur echt mit Saxophon, Posaune und Trompete - Ska ist zweifelsohne ein lebhafter Musikstil! Ursprünglich aus Jamaika stammend, bastelten Ende der 70er/Anfang der 80er die Briten ihre ganz eigene Art des Ska: den sogenannten „2-tone“. Bands wie The Specials, Madness oder The Beat wirbelten damals mit ihrem Mix aus jamaikanischen Ska, Punkrock und New Wave die Musikwelt ordentlich auf. Das konnte politisch und sozialkritisch klingen oder einfach nur nach Gaga und guter Laune. Wir schauen uns das Ganze mal genauer an... ++++++++++Song-Tipps zur Folge++++++++++ The Specials mit… „A Massage To You, Rudy“, „Ghost Town“, „Too Much Too Young“, „Doesn't Make It Alright“++++++++++Madness mit… „One Step Beyond“, „Embarrassment“, „Baggy Trousers“, „Night Boat To Cairo“, „Driving In My Car“++++++++++The Beat mit… „Hands Off…She's Mine“, „Mirror In The Bathroom“++++++++++The Selecter mit… „Gangsters“, „Three Minute Hero“, „On My Radio“

It's the second Madness LP released in 1980 that gets the full low-down from Rick and Kate for this 6th episode of the Memorabillia Podcast. Absolutely spawned two terrific singles in 'Baggy Trousers' and 'Embarrassment' but did the rest of the tracks live up to this standard? Our hosts fondly remember the Baggy Trousers video and in particular Lee Thompson's flying sax performance. Rick selects what would have been his single choices from the record rather than the record company's pick for the third single (Return of the Los Palmas 7). Much to Kate's dismay, there are a few lists covered on this episode, starting with a closer look at the famous indie tape given away with music paper NME in 1986, aptly named C86. If anyone knows why 'Half Man, Half Biscuit' hate Nerys Hughes, please write in with the answer! There's a quick review of the 12 'Wedding Present' B-Sides (all covers) released in the 12 months of 1992. Rick then counts down from 35 - 21 in the chart of the Top 50 American bands of all time as recently published by 'Ultimate Classic Rock'. 60's band Parliament/Funkadelic (name change at some point) ranking above the likes of Pearl Jam receives some consternation. As the LP Absolutely was resleased in September 1980, this is the month that our hosts hone in on for a look at the top ten UK albums and singles, highest charting movies (with very much a musical theme - but which film was number one at the time of Absolutely's reslease? 'All that Jazz' or 'Fame'?) and what was popular on the telly? In the news, John Bonham sadly leaves us as another legendary Rocker releases his debut solo album - 'Blizzard of Oz'. In London, Chicago mobster Joseph Scarlise pulls off the Marlborough diamond robbery and you can discover why it wasn't the greatest planned heist in the history of crime capers! To finish, Rick requests contact from anyone that has listened to one of the podcast episodes who has never met or doesn't know either himself or Kate, and with the help of the random single of the week, asks 'Is Vic There'?
a-ha - Lesson One (Take On Me first demo) (1982) Before their one. big, groundbreaking mega-hit (mostly for the video) this song underwent a couple revisions. They knew somehow that they had gold, but they struggled to find a winning chorus. They would. Anna Frid Lyngstad - Guld Och Gröna Ängar (10CC's "The Wall Street Shuffle" in Swedish) (1975) The red-headed female in Abba released solo stuff with some success in her homeland throughout their heyday. But she didn't hit in the USA solo until teaming with Phil Collins for "I Know There's Something Going On" in 1982. Anna Frid Lyngstad - Liv På Mars? (David Bowie's "Life On Mars?" in Swedish) (1975) Anna Frid Lyngstad - Skulle De' Va' Skönt (The Beach Boys' "Wouldn't It Be Nice" in Swedish) (1975) Baker Gurvitz Army - Hearts On Fire (1976) A pretty stupid song written by Ginger Baker. I never really liked him. I never liked Cream, to be honest. I like Jack Bruce singing with Carla Bley on "Escalator Over The Hill". Bridges - Miss Eerie ("The Juicyfruit Song", the earliest recording of "Take On Me") (1981) In 1981, a-ha’s Paul Waaktaar-Savoy and Magne Furuholmen recorded this song for their band Bridges. In 1984, having formed a-ha with vocalist Morten Harket, they’d take yet another stab at the track. Jack Bruce - I'm Gettin' Tired (Of Drinkin' and Gamblin') (1965) Ginger Baker's Air Force - Sweet Wine (1970) Same musical structure, in a way, as Mothers of Invention, without the scatology. Ginger Baker - Ariwo (1972) Hawkwind - Levitation (1980) With Ginger Baker on drums. Another band that never really pinged my interest. Throw them on the pile! Michael Lloyd and Mike Curb - It's Magic (1969) From...Hot Wheels Cartoon Soundtrack. Liner notes: This exciting album contains all of the original sound track music from HOT WHEELS- the high adventure show on ABC-TV's Super Saturday Club. This thrilling weekly cartoon series features a group of young drivers who have formed a "hot wheels" auto club. Their activities cover all aspects of this fast road sport...cross country, track and dunes, and the music reflects their love of high speed action. HOT WHEELS is an up-to-the minute show and the music from the sound track is as turned on and tuned-in as today's high performance cars. Mike Curb. who wrote the music for the show, puts it all into high gear on this fast moving album! Ian Dury and the Blockheads - Reasons To Be Cheerful, Pt. 3 (1979) These guys could play. I went through their stuff. Very exciting and versatile. The late '70s in UK must have been an exciting time for music fans. Ian Dury and the Blockheads - Hit Me With Your Rhythm Stick (1978) Listen to that bass guitar. Norman Watt-Roy. What fun it must have been to produce these records. That seems to be when the best records were made. When all concerned were united in making a good sound, but not taking themselves too seriously. Jack Bruce - Never Tell Your Mother She's Out of Tune (1969) Jack Bruce - Pieces Of Mind (1974) Jack Bruce - Victoria Sage (1971) Even though having Ginger Baker in my band would have been a special circle of hell for me, and I think Jack Bruce might have been a tad busy for my taste, I find both of their records invariably more interesting than anything Eric Clapton did. And aside from Jack Bruce's first solo album, Songs For A Tailor, neither artist charted in the US with anything. And I know this might be sacrilege to say, but is Duane Allman's slide solo on "Layla" THAT good? I find it pretty...meandering. Out of tune, even. Go ahead and kill me. Madness - Blue Skinned Beast (1983) Same album as their US hit "Our House". Dan put this on a mix tape for me once. I never forgot. Madness - Embarrassment (1980) Madness are an English ska band from Camden Town, North London, who formed in 1976. One of the most prominent bands of the late 1970s and early 1980s two-tone ska revival, Madness's most successful period was from 1980 to 1986, when the band's songs spent a total of 214 weeks on the UK Singles Chart. Madness have had 15 singles reach the UK top ten, which include "One Step Beyond", "Baggy Trousers" and "It Must Be Love", one UK number one single "House of Fun" and two number ones in Ireland, "House of Fun" and "Wings of a Dove". "Our House" was their biggest US hit. In 2000 the band received the Ivor Novello Award from the British Academy of Songwriters, Composers and Authors for Outstanding Song Collection. Madness - On The Town (Feat. Rhoda Dakar)/Bingo (2009) Read the Wiki about this album. Most artists, after how many years, regress or become a trivia act. Madness reached for the stars. It's a worthy listen for sure. Marianne Faithfull - I'm a Loser (1965) You had to be there, I guess. Mike Curb & Lawrence Brown -Bay City Boys (1967) From the original motion picture soundtrack to the film "Mary Jane". A car driven by a driver intoxicated by marijuana plunges off a cliff, killing the driver and injuring a female passenger. It turns out marijuana use is rife at a small town high school, led by the clique of Jordan Bates. Art teacher Phil Blake tries to persuade student Jerry Blackburn not to smoke. Jerry borrows Phil's car and Jordan leaves some marijuana in it. Phil gets arrested for possession of marijuana. This movie starred Fabian, who was a heartthrob in the early '60s. Maybe this was his attempt to be a serious actor. The movie was co-written by Dick Gautier (POACA will recall his ubiquitous presence on every game show ever done, as "Hymie" the Robot on Get Smart, and in 1973, when Burt Ward and Yvonne Craig reprised their Batman roles (as Robin and Batgirl respectively) for a TV public service announcement about equal pay for women, Adam West, who was trying to distance himself from the Batman role at the time, declined to participate. Gautier filled in for West as Batman. The other co-writer was Peter Marshall, who hosted The Hollywood Squares for 15 years. For the fetishist, here is that PSA, with Dick Gautier as Batman. https://youtu.be/3LviAKGZxPs Mike Curb Congregation - Come Together/Hey Jude (1970) The Mike Curb Congregation - Burning Bridges (1970) From the movie "Kelly's Heroes". Hank Williams Jr. & The Mike Curb Congregation - Walkin' To New Orleans (1971) The New Life - The Sidehackers Soundtrack (1969) Do you remember the MST3K episode? Well, there's a soundtrack that features Mike Curb's involvement. Besides the Sidehackers soundtrack, The New Life also scored songs for a film called Black Water Gold.

“We're not the sort of band that would go to cue. The more we discovered it made them look stupid, the more we did it.” Woody Woodgate of Madness was cited by John Lennon in his final interview 2 days before his passing as an up and coming drummer who impressed. 40 odd years in the industry later and Woody tells us all about creating a 4.5 earthquake on the Richter scale, watching Oasis split from the next door changing room and having to fill in their headline slot at Rock en Seine, how It Must Be Love, Baggy Trousers were recorded, playing the Olympics Closing Ceremony and loads more.

Suggs made his name as front man of 80s pop phenomenon Madness and impressed a whole generation with his unique style of singing, silly dancing and fondness for making the mundane the subject of his songs, such as Baggy Trousers, inspired by memories of school. Although his cockney accent is part of his singing style, he was actually born in Hastings and moved to London as a child. His singer mother was perhaps a subconscious inspiration, but Suggs didn't have any particular ambitions in his teens. He dropped out of school and did what a lot of teenage boys do - formed a band with his friends. Madness, a seven-piece gang of friends, became a huge success. Their first single 'The Prince' went to number 16 in 1979 and three years later they had a number one with House of Fun. In seven years they had 20 singles in the top twenty UK chart and travelled the world playing to large audiences. Now Madness occasionally meet up and play their hits list, and Suggs has launched a successful solo career and is also working in TV, hosting Night Fever on Channel 5 and captaining a team on BBC1's A Question of Pop.
