The History Of Pop Part 6 aka Just look towards the west and find a friend

It's Thursday, it's 2'o'clock, it's time for the Now poll. The series reaches surely its lowest ebb with Now 6, and evidence of penny-pinching abounds with minor hits and follow-ups all over the shop. Luckily those old faithfuls UB40 and Phil are around to 'steady the ship'. Did they ever team up? It seems inconceivable that they didn't and yet I can't remember - or my brain won't let me.

It has to be admitted that the 'bookies' have a clear favourite this time, but then the bookies certainly wouldn't have tipped Katrina and The Waves to beat out the competition on Now 5. Jimmy Nail seems to have attracted most of the DAILY HATE.

Comments, complaints, love letters to Baltimora, and musings on the impossibility of love across the iron curtain in the comments box, please.

In answer to El Brane - Like Cotton Eyed Joe I do not know exactly where Gary Moore came from or where he did go but I do remember "Empty Rooms" as an awful bit of rock chest-beating about a Man discovering his Woman has left him. So it's one of the worst (in a pretty crowded field).

Thanks Tom. Can you also supply clue re: "Mated"?!

It's a love letter to Baltimora (in his lion suit)

Gary Moore = one time Skid Row, Colosseum II and Thin Lizzy guitarist. Made 1xGREBT LP with his own band G-FORCE in 1980. For these, all later sins (if any) forgiveable

or what
