Sharp songwriting, extremely talented players. Their kind of music was derailed by punk, a genre where a lack of talent and a nasty attitude were worn as a badge of courage. Them's the breaks. "Just a pub band" is a cheap insult tossed around by people who think the interminable and turgid outpourings of Genesis after Peter Gabriel left were the pinnacle of musical invention. I don't mind a bit of pretentious prog, but I also like a bit of proper pub rock.

Threads like this are stoopid. Just plain daft.

That aside, just check out the track 'Squeezing out a spark', melody and lyrics are amazing.(05-02-2022, 01:39 PM)Beachboysbaggie Wrote:(04-29-2022, 07:24 PM)Tom Joad Wrote:(04-29-2022, 02:25 PM)Mr vertical Wrote: XTC/Dukes of the Stratosphear.

The Saints. Equally as good as the Pistols or The Clash, just didn’t have that “punk” look. Excellent band.
