I love OMD. They had a few popular songs, back in the day here. This wasn't one of them, however, but I like it.

Good pick Freddy, I love OMD too, got lots of their tunes in the Leaf.

  The flute reminded me of Jethro Tull whom I like



hope you like it

Ohh Jethro Tull - now that's a blast from my youth - I used to listen to Aqualung and Thick as a Brick albums a lot, my brother had a big record collection. Good if you want something a bit different  

Bungle in the Jungle was my favorite. Aqualung just made me feel dirty, for some reason.

  Jethro was able to sing things just not sung which may have attracted some rebellious youth, myself included.

I'm surprised this one wasn't a hit in the USA. It was over here and the Enola Gay they're referencing is the name of the aircraft that dropped the bomb (little boy) on Hiroshima.

Hence the lines... "Enola gay, mother is proud of little boy today. Oho, this kiss you give, it's never ever gonna fade away"

Blast from the past, Desmond Dekker - Israelites

I went to a Desmond Dekker concert in Brighton, many years ago now.

Nice bit o' retro reggie 

How about the 12" mix of this one. RIP Pete Shelley who died last week.

  I liked Desmond's style of singing, I'd swear I'd heard that song in the past.  On Pete's song rather long don't see any point in it.

Well time to post my favourite Christmas song

That's one of my favs too.

But I do like this one and found a 2017 remix.



I wish you a hopeful Christmas, I wish you a brave new year.
May you get the Christmas you deserve.

That was nice Snowy 

Nice choices chaps 

I would have to pick this one:

I always forget that one, yes I like that a lot too
