Afla Sackey & Afrik Bawantu (Ghana)
Percussionist Sackey & his band blend the traditional music of Ghana with Afrobeat bass grooves into an irresistibly funky horn-powered jazz/funk fusion.

Hints of prog & psychedelia here, but still has strong New Wave credentials. I remember this as being a favourite of Anne Nightingale on her Sunday evening Radio 1 show.

The CD of the first “proper” album (“SNOG”) by The Popguns on Midnight Music from 1991. An abstract brown/gold cover image of leaves/clouds (maybe?).
Plus the STILL A WORLD AWAY and XXX EP CDSingles.
I remember all the good times
Like you say I’m bound to do.
Do you think it all just vanishes…?

DREAMS BURN DOWN (1990)

Another mini epic, a firestorm of scorched-earth guitars, monolithic drums and lyrical despair.
We fill up our days and nights
We fill up the gaps in our empty little lives
But we know that we are doomed

Flyers vs Notts Panthers at the Kirkcaldy Ice Centre. Scoreboard hangs over the ice with players from both teams and shows Panthers 1-0 up on their way to a 4-1 win.
Good night out watching Fife Flyers, despite them going down 4-1 to Nottingham Panthers, including playing without a keeper for a while as they went into the last few minutes 3-1 down.
Suspect I might be a jinx as they’ve lost each of the three games I’ve been there for over the last 18 months!

Well that’s something, and no mean feat ;-)
I did have TAMAGOTCHI & SOUR PUNCH in mind too, but particularly enjoyed this one when I saw them live (went to see Ringo Deathstarr largely as these were the support!) and that swung it.
