Loved Happy Hour in my younger days by HMs.

Perfect 10 BS

[HeavyWoollenBaggie]

Saw The Housemartins at the Powerhouse in about Sept 86 just after Happy Hour broke them big. It was one of the first, if not the first, decent-sized venues they'd played and was of those epic seething mass nights. That said, compared to Heaton's later sublime songwriting they were a bit of a poor man's Smiths in retrospect-no surpise that they didn't last too long. Think for a Minute by the 'Martins, but my overall vote also goes to Song For Whoever-gorgeous tune and superb lyrics.

Great pick today.
And still hundreds of bands still to chose from.
Perfect 10

[JOK]

Artificial Flowers. B.S.

[Dreamkiller]

The Beautiful South/Housemartins

So many good ones but

Prettiest Eyes
Build

Can't argue with these choices. Maybe add 'Old red eyes is back' into the mix.

[BigDave'sTackle]

Flag Day

[Jack Halford]

Me and the farmer
The people who grinned themselves to death

[chasetownbaggie]

The Housemartins were the first proper gig I attended, in 87 at The Hummingbird (supported by The Farm). They wrote some fantastic times, brilliant indie pop. Out of many favourites, I think I'd choose Flag Day as the best.
