Calling Cards

Lola
Lee: 20 years after its release, Chris & myself wrote our inspired version, 'Mistress, Mistress' - it sounded fab but, as agent 1 would say, 'this song is available absolutely nowhere!' Lola obviously had an unearthly effect on myself as ...

Mr. Apples

Kitchen Floor
Woody: 'Kitchen Floor' was the first of a bunch of songs I wrote with my brother Nick. He absolutely cannot stop writing songs. He makes things quite simplistic, and his songs can be monotone - he doesn't resolve melodic lines. But that's ...

Grey Day
Mike wrote "the song "Grey Day" before the band became a success in the UK music scene. The first performance came back in 1978 at Acklam Hall, when the band was known as "The North London Invaders."

Hour Of Need
The song begins with an unusual harpsichord riff and plucked violin, immediately piquing your curiosity. The verse takes you on a slow, winding journey, reminiscent of a trippy, dreamlike state. The hook, akin to the impact of MJ's "Smooth ...

One Step Beyond…
How different it might have been, though. In the early days, the band played "One Step Beyond" simply as a short instrumental introduction to the main set. Some nights, they played the theme from "Hawaii 5'0". Some nights, they played the ...

Solid Gone
Smyth’s Fifties rock’n’roll pastiche, ‘Solid Gone’, possibly motivated by a rock’n’roll rockabilly revival which saw the likes of Matchbox following acts such as Rocky Sharpe & The Replays into the UK charts. Within a month of the release of ...

Fish & Chips

Baby Burglar
During the performance, Suggs had a momentary lapse in the lyrics, but it didn't detract from the overall quality of the track. Bedder's bass line stood out beautifully in the mix, adding a solid foundation that enhanced the song's groove. I ...

Powder Blue
Mike: 'Powder Blue' was one of my favourite songs on the album. It was an old song, from back when I'd been working with Suggs, before he decided to do his solo career. He'd given me the lyric and l'd written the tune to it ages ago - it was a ...

Hunchback of Toriano

Razor Blade Alley
Bands on the Two Tone Label had a following of skinheads. If you judged solely by the song title, "Razor Blade Alley," you might assume it was about mindless violence or football hooliganism.

Sign Of The Times

The Harder They Come

March Of The Gherkins

Dangerman AKA High Wire
Cathal: Take a piece of thread, pass it thru the eye of a needle and wash it in purple sand. Stitch a circle of gold silk to a blue mohair jacket and whisper three times beneath a full moon the incantation... love is the answer... all will be ...

Give Me A Reason

Waltz Into Mischief

Close Escape
The song "Close Escape" picks up where its predecessor "In The Middle Of The Night" left off. The story depicts a perverse individual who derives pleasure from making unsolicited calls to women and asking them about their underwear.
