Hi,
Roy Harper ... probably too many pieces about England over the years, inclufing various locations. (not listing albums -- too many of them!)
- Blackpool
- All Ireland
- The Lord's Prayer
- Watford Gap
- One of These Days in England
...
and too many other pieces to mention here. True poet in every sense of the word, unffortunately he probably would finger Am with a song like ... Have a Cigar or Welcome to the Machine!
, though one has its title on it ... "One Of These Days in England" ... which was a title for the USA ... but still fits. "Bullinamingvase" would be the English title.
I mean, you can even do U2 here ... how about Sunday Bloody Sunday?
As a wise Guy once stated from his holy chapala ... none of the hits, none of the time ... prevents you from becoming just another turkey in the middle of all the other turkeys!

Billy Bragg's Essex answer to Route 66 'A13' There's never been a British answer to Route 66 really has there?...  Somehow place names like Sc unthorpe to Shoeburyness don't seem to meter in the same way.

Hi, I'm putting together a list of the folks around the Man band and its various family members. On the original album "Be Good To Yourself At Least Once a Day" there was such a map ... with musician names all over the map, instead of cities ... and this was only for the area that Man/Help Yourself/Neutrons/Dave Edmunds and all those folks came from ... and the listing of other names in that map was really cool ... like Mick Jagger, folks from Gentle Giant ... a list that was crazy. But a very cool map that helped you go after other bands and musicians. The drumming of Terry Williams made the "Man" band ... and when he left for Dave Edmunds full time, the material for "Man" fell off considerably, and it never recovered. AND ... today, the children are carrying on the band ... how's that for history! Not sure anyone can replace Micky ... but what the heck! Here is a quick link to it ... but the color map on the other side of the LP sleeve was better yet! http://www.manband-archive.com/evolution/family-jungle-2.php

A shame this won't be anywhere online to verify it, but we live a suburb of Bristol called Downend, and there used to be a band all made up of people who lived in Downend, and we actually wrote a song called Downend.
The Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band had a album called 'Keynsham'

No, and there's very little romance in sitting in a traffic jam just outside Penge.
