Indeed Mr Kips - it sure rock rockety rocks. More Jangle than a Teenage Fanclub Ron Atkinson mash-up. The lovely blonde girl's rather low in the mix voice puts me in the mind of Dianne Lee from Peters & Lee. Y'now? More gravy than meat n potatos. (I suspect that comparison struck you too).
I must admit my Peters & Lee knowledge doesn't really stretch beyond Welcome Home & the bloke's dark glasses, Dicky. Or it didn't - now watching them on YouTube. I've heard worse, in fairness!
