The Jam - London Traffic (rubbish Bruce Foxton song off The Modern World) London Town - Wings (equally awful) The London Boys (very early David Bowie track) Strange Town (The Jam) - quality etc etc
Sonja Kristina sings about Greenwich Reach, on the Thames, in a Curved Air song (1970s). Saw them a couple of months ago at the Beaverwood Club in Chislehurst - very good.
Comments
A whole album of London songs and one of the best things Madness have ever done (and I love pretty much all of their stuff).
The clash - Guns of Brixton and London calling.
Gerry Rafferty - Baker street
Hubert Gregg - Maybe It's because I'm a Londoner
Ralf McTell Streets of London.
London Town - Wings (equally awful)
The London Boys (very early David Bowie track)
Strange Town (The Jam) - quality
etc etc
Thought I was the only one in the world to love this. Makes me homesick
One my mate wrote the music to - Come back to Camden, Morrissey
Stacks of Chas 'n' Dave ditties.
