Your Five Favourite seven inch singles<\/strong><\/p>\n

An impossible task, so where do you start? Do you go for the obscure or the popular? I started obscure with a 7″ from the Bill Nelson fanclub. He re-recorded a version of Contemplation<\/a> for his ‘Getting the Holy Ghost Across’ LP, but nothing matches the atmosphere on this 4 track demo, originally recorded for a Kid Jensen session (whatever happened to ‘Time Tracking’ Bill?).<\/p>\n

On hearing Jez’s selections – I lamented the loss of my cost of living EP<\/a> and Dr P (god bless him) subsequently tracked me down a copy on ebay and presented me with it on my wedding day….so much better than a toaster!<\/p>\n

Rogers choices were perhaps suprisingly ‘heavy’ after his 12″ singles choices last time. Haven’t heard Follow the leader for years – what a tune!
\nThe major kudos of the evening award went to John as he’s mentioned on the sleeve notes of the first Wedding Present single – how cool is that!<\/p>\n
