Talking of rock'n'roll doctors, John Cooper Clarke (though he's a well deserved honorary doc)

I'll tell you now and I'll tell you firmly
I don't never want to go to Burnley
What they do there don't concern me
Why would anybody make the journey?

I'll tell you know and I'll tell you flatly
I don't never want to go to Gatley
I don't even want to go to Batley
Where is that place exactly

Do I wanna to go to Redditch?
I wouldn't visit in a souped-up sheddish
what am I some kind of Nebbish?
No I don't want to go to Reddish

I'll tell you now and I'll tell you briefley
I don't never want to go to Keighley
I'll tell you now, just like I told Elsa Lanchester...
I don't ever want to go to... Cumbernauld

the song choices for talent shows like The Voice, where someone can be singing a heartrending song about loss and despair

I often find lyrics to be trite and cliched nonsense, though this lady has a proper understanding of how these things should be treated...

some great gigs there

Saw The Guana Batz and The Wigsville Spliffs... And more oddly, the Chilli Peppers (though that was the plain old Clarendon)

Dreamscape - Jamaaladeen Tacuma

The Humpty Dance - Digital Underground

Go' for the profiteroles. A nice cuppa afterwards, naturally. 

That's rock and roll! 

I'd want a tribute act to be as accurate a portrayal as possible...

So a Who tribute would need a Rolls Royce, swimming pool and lots of kit to smash up.

A Snoop wannabe would need bling and a bong.

Motor-ahead would need crates of Jack, and Happy Tuesdays, their own E-(and everything else) factory! 

The lion sleeps tonight - the Tokens

Currently playing in our shop...

Stan - Eminem 

Featuring Andy from the Weeds on guitar - proper Leeds goth stuff And still big in Germany!

Knock on Wood - Amii Stewart 

I kill children - Dead Kennedys

And in slightly later teen years (i.e 18-19), discovered Trouble Funk and Big Tony Fisher

And started my slide into slightly crazed jazz by buying this album by ex-Ornette Coleman bassman, Jamaaladeen Tacuma (I thought it was just ordinary funk, it kind of blew me away and I haven't been the same since!)

However, after Norman and Barry Adamson, and before these funky dudes was another surprisingly funky goth bloke, David J of Bauhaus...

Mine

I got them!

Still not a clue...

Though could that be John Taylor with the 80s hair?

But no idea about the various random longhairs apart from Cliff.
