Have a great day ML Mick, there's not much between us then in age or road travelled ( not a doorman or MC thouugh). My sisters tales as a Wheelite used to thrill me ( she was 6 yrs older than me, RIP) and that's where my interest started. yup, it's just opinion. have a good weekend best ken (aka Billy) Edited February 3 by Kenb Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Bloodseed Posted February 3 Share Posted February 3 5 hours ago, Paul-s said: It is indeed nobody's scene. But it does have an important working class history and past, and by trying to erase and co-opt that - have listen to producer Eve on BBC woman's hour claiming it as her scene and BNSC are the centre of it: a claim she knows is absurd and untrue - they are trying to make it a myopic vision and scene that they wish to dominate commercially. Two tracks spring to mind: The Snake & Backstabbers "they smile in your face"....... So, it definitely is a scene that does not need poisonous snakes and gentrifying 'influencers' Bit harsh but that’s your opinion which I respect but don’t agree with have a good weekend and hap soul life Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
