This weeks and last were a compilation of the best of the best ofs for the last 5 years. Didn’t realise I’d been compiling these for 5 years until I checked recently. Some of these have featured in the last month or so.

Top list Ace. Rainy Night in Georgia does it for me and Black Betty would have to be the best one hit wonder of all time. Someone gave me the Best of Simple Minds really good stuff.

Great stuff, all good. Didn’t realise that Stevie Wright had died in 2015. I saw him in 1979 at Brookvale oval. I think the Salvation Army were lokking after him. So many other great singers in the list. Merv needs to upgrade the jukebox.

Great voice and showmanship, troubled soul though. It was the drugs that eventually killed him really.
