Thinking about the time my 60-year-old dad told me that he used to go clubbing in the 80s to Scritti Politti songs…
How does it feel to have lived my dream

Release: April 29, 1985
Lyrics:
To do what I should do
To long for you to hear
I open up my heart
And watch her name appear
A word for you to use
A girl without a cause
A name for what you lose
When it was never yours
The first time baby that I came to you
Swore I'd do things that you want me to
The second time baby that I came to you
For oh you found my love for you
The third time baby that I came to you
Oh, oh, oh, I knew
The last time baby that I came to you
Oh how your flesh and blood became the word
A name the girl outgrew
The girl was never real
She stands for your abuse
The girl is no ideal
It's a word for what you do
In a world of broken rules
She found a place for you
Along her chain of fools
The first time baby that I came to you
Swore I'd do things that you want me to
The second time baby that I came to you
For oh you found my love for you
The third time baby that I came to you
Oh, oh, oh, I knew
The last time baby that I came to you
Oh how your flesh and blood became the word
Songwriter:
Oh how
Your flesh and blood
Oh how
Your flesh and blood
Oh how
Your flesh and blood
Oh how
Your flesh and blood
Oh how
Your flesh and blood
Oh how
Your flesh and blood
Oh how
Your flesh and blood

8/15/23.
This is surprising. My love for the music of Davey Henderson led me to believe I'd posted a Fire Engines release. I've tagged Fire Engines, but never directly posted about them.
Fire Engines (Edinburgh, Scotland) came from the same music scene that produced Orange Juice and Josef K. Davey went on to form one of my most used tag-bands - The Nectarine no. 9.
But, between Fire Engines and Nectarine no. 9, Henderson formed Win and released an amazing album of dance/indie named "...Uh! Tears Baby". Last Night From Glasgow will be reissuing this 1987 masterpiece that sounds like a cross between The Go! Team, Big Audio Dynamite, Scritti Politti and Still Flyin'.
