Name an artist you reckon no one has thought about in years

I was thinking about them just the other week because Anne Magnusson was in the film Clear and Present Danger. Which nobody has thought about for ages.

Also in the context of the post C86 listening club and how Power of Pussy would be my choice if it wasn’t American.

Brilliant track you chose there too.

I posted that earlier in this thread, since when we’ve all forgotten about him all over again.

Was watching osees live from red rocks before and couldn’t help thinking about bono throughout (much to my annoyance)

Also I just remembered Bono’s childhood address and birthday…
I was utterly obsessed with U2 until I was about 13 when my Father said I should listen to John Peel

Levy.

One hit wonders in the early days of 6music but I always preferred this one…

Maybe she’d interviewed the Ramones and Duran Duran shortly before and was trying not to get burned again.

Good song this and Coma is a decent album …1st ever gig was Wishplants with Blessed Ethel at the Windsor Old Trout…

It just feels wrong that so little of the Big Breakfast footage just doesn’t exist in the public domain.

Chances are most of it is dreadful, and would kill any nostalgia people have for it. But it would be nice to find out how bad it all was.

Was Kelly Brooks really reading phonetic cue cards? Where did Richard Orford go? What happened in those Paula Yates interviews? (Always needed to leave for school before Paula was on)

The Corrs incident was on MTV. But actually, while I don’t know how much of the Big Breakfast still officially exists as even that late on a lot of programmes with a huge number of episodes aren’t archived in full especially if not on the BBC or ITV and made by an independent production company, there’s quite a bit on YouTube.
