I saw James support The Smiths in (I think) 1985 at the Albert Hall.  Rubbish acoustics back then, but up there as one of my fave gigs of all time - and that's saying something.

The only band, who've ever made me cry like a baby on first listening/viewing of a song

It's a magical video, but honestly, it's a devastating watch!

I have not seen that before. What a moving video.

That's beautiful.

A lot of my friends were into them between Gold Mother and Laid.  I always quite liked them but it wasn't until She's a Star that I really sat up and took notice.  Love that song - I even bought that one on CD single (remember those?)

Good thread - I'll have to check out some more of their stuff.  I don't think I've heard anything post 1997.

And yeah, that Moving On video..... wow.

The new album is good.  Ive been listening to it since it was released a few weeks ago.  Its really growing on me.

…or not, as it’s just been postponed. Again. Due to ‘damp ground’

Gutted. I saw them in Southsea about 20 years ago, great live band, great lights I seem to remember really nice ambience.

'Sit Down' might be one of the best-arranged pop songs in history. Brilliantly nuanced, every layer incredibly well-thought out and it's mixed perfectly.

Kept from the coveted No. 1 spot by 'The One and Only' by Chesney Hawkes.
