Classic Pop tunes that passed you by

Ever heard of Mondo Grosso, a Japanese band from Kyoto? I thought not. How about the similarly named Mondo Kane featuring Georgie Fame on a Latin jazz release produced by Stock Aitken and Waterman? Or the British electronic duo Mono? What about the long forgotten Scottish band, The River Detectives and their longest, best remix ever of a song called ‘Saturday Night, Sunday Morning’? No. Don’t worry. You’re in good company. We’ll play some hits you’ll know. But some of the best pop songs end up in remainder bins. This week we return them to their rightful place in the sun.

Published by Roy Stannard

I'm someone who doesn't like parameters, barriers or fences. I'll try and climb over them, burrow under them or just pretend they don't exist - until they don't. Sometimes I'll write about the mind in a poetic way, or poetry with neural undertones, or I'll proselytise endlessly about my favourite new band - or one of the old ones. My Blog will give you the keys to the kingdom. A kingdom with no borders, no expectations and, therefore, no failure.. Because I am endlessly empathetic with people, their motivation, their behaviour,their problems and their quest for knowledge, I work with the pioneering Brighton-based homeless, vulnerable women and disempowered school students charity Off The Fence Trust that has tried to redress the equality deficit for over two decades. I produce, host and promote two radio shows a week: The Whole Nine Yards Sundays 3-5pm on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM (www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen) - and Lost Immortals on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM on Sundays 5-7pm.
