Again Again was a great song, think it even got single of the week in NME at the height of punk / new wave.

Yes why not what's the problem? the thread title says "OTHER BANDS" There are plenty of other bands I don't particularly like people post here but each to their own. :wink:

Quo were the first band I ever saw live, 1974. Good value, and not that I'd know what a good stage act was at 16 I thought they were sound. A bit embarrased now of course but I did have Piledriver, Hello and Quo as albums, but I was young OK.
Mmmmmm, biker chick! I've still got a Triumph ..........er and a Kwak.
