The Godfathers on You Tube
One of the greatest British bands not to make the big time,the terrific Godfathers.Found some videos for Birth,School,Work,Death and Unreal World plus some live gems on You Tube.
How this band were'nt huge is beyond me,wrong place at the wrong time maybe.I was lucky enough to have seen them twice,November 1988 at the QMU and September 1992 at The Cathouse.I remember them on the Ally Pally bill at Hughs swansong also,wish I had made the journey...ah hindsight.Sadly I remember Peter Coyne sitting among the 10 contestants waiting to be chosen on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire around October 2000,a man with his talent should have been one by then.

Excellent band!
Got their first 4 albums, I know there was a 5th('Afterlife'?)..
1st three contain some classics, as do some of the recordings that never made a proper album.
Re- Ally Pally.
I actually turned up a bit earlier to check out The Godfathers but to my disappointment 'that Petrol Emotion' seemed to have moved up a slot and I missed 'The Godfathers'
Finally saw them in 1992 at 'The Venue' in New Cross, London. Shit hot gig and I got to have a word with Peter Coyne afterwards.
Never knew he was on 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire' though
