Dexys Midnight Runners - Let's Make This Precious (BBC Version) (1982)

Searching for the Young Soul Rebels is one of my faves, and in between that LP and their big hit LP Too-Rye-Ay, Dexys Mk II recorded an number of singles and a BBC session. Let's Make This Precious later reappeared with the fiddles and whatnot, but I much prefer this rendition, which retains a lot of the sound of their first LP.

No, not those guitars, they're too noisy and crude

Day Twenty-five: A Picture of a Band With a Strange Name

30 Day Band Challenge

Dexy's Midnight Runners

The name comes from the drug Dexadrine - a brand of dextroamphetamine that was used recreationally by Northern soul fans.

ZZ Top

Gibbons noticed that lots of artists had names that included initials. He sought to combine the names of his musical heros, B.B. King and Z.Z. Hill. He decided that 'Z.Z. King' sounded too similar to B.B. King, so he changed it to Z.Z. Top, because 'B.B. is at the top'.

Toad the Wet Sprocket

The band thought it would be funny to create a name that made no sense.
