Starry Eyed clearly qualifies.steve simelshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13247393763004076992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-77716772470324965102020-09-25T21:24:33.808-04:002020-09-25T21:24:33.808-04:00Yeah, this is sweet music-- but when I hear 'P...Yeah, this is sweet music-- but when I hear 'Pub Rock,' I think of something more aggro like Dr. Feelgood, the 101ers or Eddie & the Hot Rods.Alzonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-30479993301226971522020-09-25T15:25:40.786-04:002020-09-25T15:25:40.786-04:00never in a million years would have thought Starry...never in a million years would have thought Starry Eyed as pub rock. was their criteria every guitar band that was a contemporary of Brinsley?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-21061159345122020802020-09-25T11:56:11.679-04:002020-09-25T11:56:11.679-04:00Another live clip: https://youtu.be/Zdv8yVyTfIwAnother live clip: https://youtu.be/Zdv8yVyTfIwMJConroyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17372576965208949072noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8921382.post-20690526304721105002020-09-25T11:53:23.190-04:002020-09-25T11:53:23.190-04:00Been a fan of Starry Eyed and Laughing since I got...Been a fan of Starry Eyed and Laughing since I got a copy of their Thought Talk lp (white label promo) back in 1976. Yikes- the price on that compilation has shot up- glad I have a copy. For a more reasonable price, may I suggest going to http://www.starryeyedandlaughing.com/Starry_Sales.htm and getting "That Was Now And This Is Then" which "contains the 2 original albums Starry Eyed And Laughing<br />and Thought Talk together with 3 singles produced by Flo & Eddie (one unreleased)and 3 previously unreleased tracks including "Chimes Of Freedom"". All good stuff. But website says "last few remaining" so don't hesitate if you are interested.MJConroyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17372576965208949072noreply@blogger.com
