Found this one from Snoh!
What's "Boogie and Shane"?
Track 2 from the London Tabernacle, 16/7/88. Sounds like an old rock and roll song.
Yes not sure that is the correct title it is in the first line of the lyrics. Sounds like a song the 101’ers would have covered.
I will try and find a version on line but not easy deciphering Joe’s lyrics.

My favourite song from 2019, still not sick of it hundreds of plays later.

Recall this not doing too well in the survivor polls, I love its groove to bits, a great opener to a fantastic album.

It's a solid enough track. Just not very adventurous.

That's exactly it. There's nothing wrong with it, but you expect a bit more from Mick at that point.

I like it but there's lots better on the album.

Applecart is one of Mick's best ever tunes imo.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

It's an album I really didn't like at first, because I was expecting more of the same over-the-top sampling and beats, but in time it won me over. I still much prefer the first two albums, but songs like "Applecart" and "Other 99" validated that record.

Mentioned in Reynolds' Rip It Up and Start Again, a collection of songs from the post-No Wave funky "mutant disco" period. The stuff from this scene is so vibrant, just fun and weird, arty without pretension.

Rip It Up and Start Again is a great track.

It's funny, I know it's a reference to Orange Juice, but I always hear in my mind PiL's "Flowers of Romance," which has the lyric, "Start all over again."

I had never really listened to this lot, and only bought it because Mick Jones is the narrator, but I'm glad I got it. His narration certainly makes me smile, and its a good listen.
