Incidentally, there are multiple versions of Out Come the Freaks, not all of which are listed on the track listings of their albums. I've no objection to someone nominating another one. Listen to BN's and decide whether the one you have is effectively a different song.

Don't really like these radio edits. The full versions of How the Heart Behaves and Walk the Dinosaur are much better.

Bugger, was watching the footie, sorry.
9 voters for the 10 noms, and one absentee who left it to the last minute then decided to watch some football game or other :-)A clear winner, theDuke bags the gold with 16 points for yet another version of Papa Was A Rolling Stone. on 13 points, an sharing the silver, Shadow And Jimmy and Walk The Dinosaur nommed by Val and Collette. 11 points for Out Come The Freaks means fitba daft Brassy picks up the bronze.
And, at very long last, I get to dust off a wooden spoon. It appears that no one thinks ol' Lenny Cohen should join Was (Not Was), so Elvis's Rolls Royce means Tech gets one of these rarities.
Blimey! 2 in as many weeks.....what have i been drinking?! Thanks to everyone who voted for Papa. :)
ah, sad. both leonard and the owner of the rolls royce will be birling in their coaffins.
The honour of marking round 500 goes to our host, Gordon, and he has gone with US pop/rock band, Was (Not Was).
Wiki lists 5 albums between their first in 1981, and their latest in 2008. I am not quite certain but it appears to me that they are no longer in existence.
As ever, noms to be in by 10 pm Sunday evening, leave a link to your nom, and come back to vote next week.
Now, I am off to pop a celebratory (but socially distanced) bottle of bubbly.
