Good morning Saturday’s Kids This is your driver speaking “I’m Out of my brain on the train” The Who - "5:15" Top Of The Pops 1973 @NewWaveAndPunk @GCPunkNewWave @FatOldAnarchist @lee0969

On this day in 1980 No 9 UK Album Chart Skids “The Absolute Game” Forget about the “Strength through Joy” controversy & listen to the wonderful music, & it is wonderful.
