Former pop chart aficionado, slowly recreating my 400-track singles chart from 1980 via Spotify. Used to know lots about (and write stuff on) television. Now back in London after a spring/summer in Vancouver. Once produced a CD-ROM for Oliver Postgate.

I've really drawn a blank on this one so far: don't remember the band or the tune, and I can't find audio or video of it online. However, I do know it existed as there are entries on sites such as discogs.com showing the cover and label. Hmm.
