Tell me all you know about Blurt. I heard a report on them on the radio on Saturday morning and liked what I heard. Edward

All I know is they have a great tune called something like "Walk the Dog" and have horns. /Ed | |||||

I think someone called Ted Milton was involved. He used to be a poet as well, but, to quote the man himself, "not *that* Milton'. His one great moment was a protest poem against the use of sheep in high-pressure hose-pipe crowd control technique experiments at Porton Down. It was called "Bang Splash Baa!" if memory serves correctly, and I quote it verbatim here; "Bang Splash Baa!" Then again, I could have the wrong bloke entirely. Enlightenlingly yours, Bob | |||||

My mistake. That should have read Blur. I promise not to do it again. | |||||

Borrowed Blur's LP "Parklife" last night. Great record. "This is a low" is brilliant. Might even think about buying it myself. | |||||

Parklife has been short listed for the Mercury Music Award, quite rightly IMO. It's a great album with no two songs sounding alike, although most of the songs sound like something you heard long ago but can't quite remember where. Matk |
