We only got round to four of my selections on the theme of “really got you excited”, but Grandmaster and Melle Mel did get a rewind (I think that’s what the young people say 😉 ).
Silver Dollar Forger and People Who Died really power forwards and are in themselves just exciting. My kids would dance excitedly to Warm Leatherette when they were wee, and the song is about getting excited in car crashes. White Lines is just great and I was pretty excited to hear it performed by Tackhead at the Voodoo Rooms a couple of years ago.
The theme next time is West. So far I’ve got Go West by the Cult and the Barmy Army album which is full of West Ham terrace chanting.
