c'mon - Tainted Love 12" Dub mix, granted the rests utter crap

 

Ha Ha Ha, noooooooooo, 'Tainted Love' is all Gloria Jones here.

 

Incidentally one of my mates is MASSIVE Marc Almond fan.

 

 

However it's better if you kill the sound and watch it with

playing in the background.

Just the 12" dub mix which bears little resemblance to Gloria Jones' magnificence

Slightly OT but bearing in mind this was pre interweb and twitter bollocks

Did your school have the rumour about Almond and the stomach pump / pints of seamen ?

Just wondered if it was nationwide or just isolated areas ...

...pints of seamen ?

That rumour was rife, though apparently untrue.

:) That wasn't how I typed it !! Honest guv

But that aside , its interesting how the rumour went national pre social media , Internet etc

( I think we all know it isn't true , but tbf I was about 10 at the time ... I think it resurfaced later in the 80's for Morrissey as well if I recall )

Did kids write it down on a piece if paper and send it around the country on a carrier pigeon ?? How did the rumour spread so far ?

As to the topic, pretty much anything by The Smiths (I know they aren't Morrissey himself but...).

You have to like one, that's the rub.

 

If it was just 'who do you most utterly despise in music' I'd go with your answer ;)

I like them all, though (maybe save one or two).

Otherwise I could monopolize the topic by saying every track they did and just repeating that I think Morrissey's a twunt. :)

To this day, a unit of semen is known as an almond. Yes, it even made it over here pre-internet.
