      Most boring day of the year. It can fuck right off.

            Today I'm inclined to agree.

                There were a couple of compilations they put out in 1977 that I wouldn't mind getting hold of on CD...

                  I've never really seen the point of Nick Lowe, despite his perennial popularity in the dad rock mags. Is he a particularly good laugh to hang out with or something?

                    In Nick Lowe’s favour, he did produce this.

                      That is a strong entry for the pro column.

                        Yes, I never got quite why he was called a legend and have been disappointed more than once when he’s been the “mystery guest” (why does he always have to be a surprise, is he at risk of assassination by the Pub Rock New Wave State or something?) but have then had someone list his achievements, including New Rose, at me.

                          He's part of that weird Dave Edmunds / Wreckless Eric / Nick Lowe triad of 'legends' who did something or other around '75 or '77 or thereabouts, and not much else of note since.
