Back to the 1970s we go with the Brain DJ, for all those who were young then –
Wreckless Eric, "Whole Wide World" (1977)
Recorded #OnThisDay 47 years ago:
Wreckless Eric - Peel Session 1977
The complete session recorded by Wreckless Eric on 25 September 1977 for the John Peel show on BBC Radio 1 and broadcast on 11 October 1977.
Tracklist:
1. Rags And Tatters (0:07)
2. Semaphore Signals (1:38)
3. Reconnez Cherie (4:27)
4. Personal Hygiene (7:31)
5. (I'd Go The) Whole Wide World (10:03)
But this is definitely powerpop!
Stiff Records knew what they did when signing Wreckless Eric in 1977.

Do yourself a favor and enjoy #WrecklessEric's wonderful post on his #LaterWithJoolsHolland appearance. Plus all the observational stuff: "There were Arsenal dads with their Arsenal sons, and they all seemed much nicer than Roger Waters." https://thedysfunctionalworldof.blogspot.com/2023/10/later-with-jools-holland.html
New on Instagram: Live Stiffs (1979) UK 10-track #live #LP #compilation, which documents all the artists that participated during The Bunch Of Stiffs tour - #ElvisCostello , #IanDury , #NickLowe, #WrecklessEric
"They did a Covid test – the equipment was like something you’d use for artificially inseminating goats, very agricultural"
I haven't thought about Wreckless Eric since 1979 (when I was only 3 *obviously *) What an entertaining chap. May be intrigued enough to listen to what's he done in the intervening 44 years.

And so, the past circles back to incorporate the right now, and the merry-go-round keeps spinning and #wrecklesseric is still, blessedly, aboard. https://dustedmagazine.tumblr.com/post/726377201539465216/wreckless-eric-leisureland-tapete
