We look at Elton John's “Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” (1973) one of the most important and influential albums of the modern rock period.  An album with serious lyrics, tight ensemble playing from the band, and cover art as good as it gets, this album marks a high point for Elton John.  In his career of over 50 years, he may have matched, but never bettered, this album. We also look at the 80's, which get a bit of a bum rap from many people for “manufactured bands and music”. This is perhaps unfair, with a lot of great music, Live Aid, the Berlin Wall coming down and the arty New Romantic style following a direct line from punk right at the start of the decade! Spandau Ballet, along with ABC, Visage, Duran Duran, A Flock of Seagulls, Boy George / Culture Club were at the vanguard of a style that owed a lot to the simplification and availability of keyboards/synthesisers.  Simple songs, no virtuoso playing but heaps of fun. From the burbling keyboards of “To Cut a Long Story Short” through to the blue-eyed soul of “True” and “Gold”, they provided a glamorous soundtrack for a new decade that still stands up today. Jeff's Rant urges everyone to get involved in bitcoin before becomes so worthless no one will want to buy it!!References:  Gus Dudgeon, Elton John, Nigel Olsson, Dee Murray, Davey Johnstone, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, “Candle in the Wind”, Paul Buckmaster, 1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die”, Robert Dimery, double albums, Spandau Ballet, New Romantics, Blitz, Bowie, Pierrot costume, Rick Wakeman, Tony Hadley, Journeys to Glory, “Soul Boys of the Western World”, “True”, “The Wedding Singer”, Steve Buscemi Spandau BalletYellow Brick RoadTrade DogecoinBored Ape Yacht Club

For American audiences the 80s band Spandau Ballet seemingly came out of nowhere, but in the U.K. they had achieved a reputation for marrying soulful, beat-driven music with a sense of fashion and style as part of the New Romantics scene. Thanks largely to MTV, American audiences - and the rest of the world - embraced their massive hits "True" and "Gold" which sent them on tour around the world, including a high-profile spot on stage at Live Aid in 1985.  But tension began to creep in. Their 1989 album Heart Like A Sky was a disappointment. Chief songwriter/guitarist Gary Kemp and his brother, bass player Martin Kemp, went off to shoot a high-profile film based on the real-life British gangsters The Krays. The band called it quits. Chatting with Gary Kemp, John Keeble Years later a court case over royalties drove an even bigger wedge between them.  But in 2009 all five members put aside their differences and, after almost twenty years, re-formed to make new music and go on tour. with John Keeble, Steve Norman Their fascinating journey from the earliest days coming out of a punk and disco club scene in London in the late 70s to feeling stronger than ever about their music as they each reach their mid-50s is documented in the fascinating film Soul Boys Of The Western World. Here, Gary Kemp, drummer John Keeble and multi-instrumentalist Steve Norman (the man responsible for that sweet sax solo in "True") sit down to reminisce and look forward.  Enjoy! -LM Go to SpandauBallet.com - follow them on Twitter @SpandauBallet - Like 'em on Facebook Above, trailer for the excellent doc about the band Soul Boys of the Western World and, below, my personal fave Spandau song...
