You’ll Lose A Good Thing
Suggs: A beautiful Barbara Lynn track, which I only knew from an extremely battered reggae 45 by a girl known only as Audrey, on the Down Town label. In fact it was in such bad condition that bits were inaudible and we had to interpret an ...

Mistakes
According to John Hasler, the band played a two-chord vamp, and the songwriter wrote the lyrics in the next room. On the other hand, Cathal admires the lyrics of "Mistakes," saying that it is an astute and poignant observation of life at a ...

Culture Vulture
Okay, it’s been over 30 years in the making—well, not really. Though some might try to draw a strange connection to the song once heard in 1996 at Madstock, this is not that tune. The only common thread here is the title, 'Culture Vulture.' ...
