The Inheritance Track

I have had a yellow post it note floating around for months with the following on it-

"I like R4's idea of Inheritance Tracks too. Speakers choose one track that's been passed on to them from a parent, describing its significance, and another that they would like to pass on to their offspring."

Where on the internet i found this i can't remember but i really liked the idea so i can't claim credit for it as it looks like Radio 4 have the copyright.

I thought long and hard for the first track but it was only when i headed over to the Vinyl Villain blogspot that it gave me the track that i had been waiting for and now it seems an obvious choice in the spirit of the piece,Ladies and Gentlemen i present......................





To this day i can never understand was this band was never huge,i still love this song with a passion and it will always bring a smile to my face and everyone I've ever played it to loves it.Maybe similar in a way to Pulp and they where at the top of their game at this period i do firmly that "The Golden Mile" is a classic album on par with "Different Class"
To mark the 15 year anniversary of their debut album"Mornington Crescent"the band played a gig at the end 2009 at he venue KOKO which happens to be next door to Mornington Crescent tube station. If only i was still living in England........
