This retrospective of 1970s UK punk band Sham 69 features 20 tracks, including the singles "Borstal Breakout" and "Hersham Boys," as well as six tracks recorded live and a booklet with rare photos.
Sham 69 was part of the original wave of UK punk bands in the mid-to-late 1970s. They were working-class lads and proud of it, completely disdaining any sort of "arty" or "pop" approaches in their rowdy but heartfelt anthem-like tunes. COCKNEY KIDS ARE INNOCENT contains 20 (!) of their best, including "Angels With Dirty Faces," "Borstal Breakout," "Tell Us The Truth," and a cover of the great '60s "protest" song "Mister You're A Better Man Than I," made famous by the Yardbirds.
'Angels With Dirty Faces' perhaps, 'Hersham Boys' most certainly, Sham 69 provided their fans & the punk movement with a soundtrack that reflected life for large sections of Britain's youth in the 70s. Never less than a powerhouse live & always entertaining in the studio, this selection boasts all their hit singles, key album tracks & some classic live recordings too. Includes previously unseen memorabilia & photos. Includes unique foldout career map of Sham 69 & track by track commentary by their original tour manager, Grant Fleming AKA Joe Public. Metro. 2003.

Cockney Cowboys: The Very Best Of album
$10.49 
First off, the name -- the sexual innuendo implied in the band's moniker, Kissing the Pink -- surely races to the surface, but the truth of the matter is that the name is derived from a snooker/billiards reference to a weak shot; the innuendo was just a lucky coincidence. The band certainly lost more than they gained from the cross-referencing. Their music had very little to do with overt sexuality, but that name (coupled with some decidedly unsettling album artwork) didn't help the group's cause with record labels or the general public -- yet those who heard the music before registering the images and name ...
| | John Waite Downtown: Journey Of A Heart CD (2007) Import
Cockney Cowboys: The Very Best Of CD music
$19.09
If anyone who cracked the charts in the 1980s got a bum rap and was left hanging, it was John Waite. The British singer and songwriter fronted the intensely melodic Babys, who wrote well-crafted, hooky, straight-up rock tunes and power ballads. Then, with "Missing You," the monster single from his breakthrough record No Brakes, Waite was saddled as one of the dukes of power pop balladry. Nobody ever let him live it down. Waite fronted the supergroup Bad English with bandmates Neal Schon and Jonathan Cain from Journey, scored big once again with the overdone "When I See You Smile," and then went right back to being a solo artist. He has been accused of writing and singing directly for the charts and has been looked at impassively since the early '90s. It's too bad that the ballad and the power ballad have been looked at with such cynical disdain. Everyone looks at Sting as a "sophisticated" pop songwriter simply because ...

Cockney Cowboys: The Very Best Of album
$20.29
Altar Wind is "open and airy and reflective" with beautiful old Celtic Harp instrumentals that George has carefully researched and arranged to preserve their Irish flavor. It leans slightly more in the contemporary direction than the others CDs in this set, slightly more serious, brooding with a touch of drama. Anwyn backs him up on the hurdy gurdy, bowed psaltery, hammered dulcimer. Anwyn performs three delicate vocal tracks, featuring Baedon Well an original song that ponders the plight of two lovers caught in a reincarnation dilemma. Altar Wind is as warm as a winter's fire and as plaintive as the blowing wind outside.George & Anwyn Leverett BIOAncient, Traditional & Contemporary Celtic Music2007 marks the 15th anniversary of the acclaimed Celtic music duo, George & Anwyn Leverett. They haveplayed such diverse venues as Celtic and Blue Grass festivals, Nevada casinos, pubs, fairs, school assemblies and sold-out concerts.
