Arkwright 11 Years, 1 Month ago  
Here's an obscure little query! I heard this single by Arkwright earlier today - written by your good self! Very nice it is. Was the name of the group/singer inspired by the Arkwright of Ronnie Barker's Open All Hours?

Indeed that WAS, I believe, the derivation of the name but it wasn't my song (must be another King).
I think it was the B side and can recall nothing about it OR the A side!

Thanks JK. I had a quick look around and apparently it's by a Batley-born singer/comic called Sandy King.

A lot of people remember it, it reminds me of Mr Commuter.

Er, there's only about four people discussing it in that link of yours, and they all seem to think it's quite obscure!
