Watching Top of the Pops 1982 (minus all JK bits) I see the Goombay Dance Band at No1 and realise I've never heard it before! Just as well; it was awful. However did it get to No1? I was, of course, safely in New York at the time.
I bought a copy of that .. and the follow up.
Still have them in the shelf. I must play them again .. some day soon.
For me the 80s were the worst decade, music wise.
