    "A letter to you" - Shakin' Stevens

    "I tore my letter up, couldn't even start
    To tell you what's really here in my heart
    There's only so much that words can say
    So I sent you a piece of this beautiful day"

    Shakey's 41st appearance on Top of the Pops, as hip-swivelling as ever.

  2. "Hot dog" - Shakin' Stevens

    "Get me two hot dogs ready to go," orders the man in the white suit. Hold the ketchup, easy on the onion, no mustard.

    Love to see the string of circles picture-in-picture stuff, the height of television technology and more fun than anything else in years.

  4. "Teardrops" - Shakin' Stevens

    Baron Shakesford gyrates in a sea of dry ice, while his sparking suit is lit by pink spotlights.

    There's a country twang to the song, perhaps a sniff of "Hey Paula" from the 1960s, but Shakey buries it beneath his usual syrup. A shame: there's a great song we're not hearing.

  10. One of the #Shaky songs recorded with obviously synthetic drums and brass section.

    But still a great #Rockabilly number.

  11. "This old house" - Shakin' Stevens

    Ah, phew. It's not the Big Bates Is Watching clip I expected, but the Shakey Leads A Blockbusters Hand Jive.

  12. Peruvian dance from Incantation, "Cacharpaya (andes pumpsa desi)" is enlivened by Zoo gyrating. Kid Jensen spoils the effect when he says they're from exotic Chiswick.

    Up on the gantry is Shakin' Stevens, "Blue Christmas" begins with Incantation leaving the stage, and continues with plenty of BBC snow... or is it the snowmen after they got into a fight with Mr. Maisonette?

  13. Ted Tocks Covers

    MerryChristmas/Last Christmas

    Originally posted on December 11, 2021

    A mashup of two Christmas songs to help kick off the holiday season.

    “I feel it when it comes
    Every year, helping us carry on
    Filled up with so much love
    All the family and friends are together
    Where we all belong
    Merry Christmas, everyone”

  16. when the beach boys got good vibrations , they discovered #ShakinStevens

  17. Does Shakin' Stevens have four under-dressed men behind him? No. Phew.

    Is this song a Bop? Yes.

    Was it the last really good song he released? Not quite, but it's more miss than hit after this.

    Were we expecting that splits jump? No way!

  19. Last time we saw Shakin Stevens, he had some oiled-up men wearing very little. This week, he has Legs & Co in much more demure green dresses. More of this, please.

  20. Some new tracks have been published this week.

    First a new one of the Swedish 1-Man Rock&Roll Hit Machine: #TeddieEricsson.

    Again, if you like #ShakinStevens style #Rockabilly and a great #Telecaster guitar, this is for you.

  21. #DaveEdmunds is one of the #Rocknroll and #Rockabilly godfathers. The #StrayCats and the #PoleCats are only a few acts he has produced in the early #80s.

    But some of Dave's own songs undoubtly have the typical #ELO sound, thus I am not sure whether #JeffLynne was more in charge of producing than Dave himself. Sure, both are Welsh, just like #ShakinStevens.

  22. And also the Swedish 1-man-#Rockabilly-combo of #TeddieEricsson , the lead singer and guitarist of #TheFastback, has a released a new track with fantastic #Telecaster guitar riffs.

    Everybody who likes the sound of #ShakinStevens and The Sunsets may be potentially interested.

  23. Peel, Long, live edition. What can go wrong?

    Shakey-by-numbers for #ShakinStevens 50th #TOTP appearance. Love the dressing gown!

    #Madonna sings "Material girl". You don't need money when you have a good heart.

    #JermaineJackson introduces the slushpile: there were too many drippy ballads in the second quarter of '85. Brightest thing here is the jacket.
