poptimistsChris Rea - "Josephine (La Version Francaise)"
This is from Classic Balearic Mastercuts vol.1 - Balearic Beat was a hugely inspirational movement which essentially argued that EVERYTHING was pop if you a) remixed it a bit and b) were fvcked up enough. This vision of pop managed to encompass the Woodentops, which probably just tells us that pills were better in those days. Here though we find grizzly old 'bluesman' Chris Rea BLISSING OUT with the help of some wah-wah guitar.
EVIDENCE B is the karaoke performance of "Romeo And Juliet" by certain posters of this parish. No recording survives.
