I've not plugged this in a while, but if you still haven't got yourself a copy of my Rodigan endorsed Sleng Teng rework of Eddie Cochran's Somethin' Else, then what are you waiting for? rongorongorongo.bandcamp.com/album/someth...

The scene in which the kid composes 'Ben' is perhaps one of the greatest fake composition scenes in cinema. Certainly better than Jeremy Allen White dicking around with his 4 track www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfCL...

Arguably the greatest ballad about a hyper-intelligent and psychotic rat which befriends a boy with a heart condition between leading his blood thirsty colony on a rampage through the streets of Los Angeles

What is your biggest musical blindspot for someone precisely your age?
For me - an elder millennial - it is that I have never knowingly listened to INCUBUS, nor could I name even one of their songs if you put a gun to my head.

A great article about The Specials, and if you scroll back up the thread there's an interesting first performance of The Tide Is High.
The Specials/Blondie connection did lead to one unlikely outcome in the shape of some early UK rap, as mentioned in my piece about Too Much Too Young for @thequietus.com earlier this year thequietus.com/opinion-and-...
The Story of 'Too Much Too Young': How The Specials got Their First Number One Single | The Quietus
The road to The Specials' first number one was long but they blazed a trail in finally getting Too Much Too Young to the top
