More 'Oldies'
Anyone remember Leo Sayer? I've been playing some of his early '70's stuff this week - he was pretty good, a bit of a special talent I'd say.

I wsa never a huge fan, I'm afraid. I always thought he was a bit of a gimmick.

Re: More 'Oldies'
He had something of the street entertainer which appealed to me at the time.
His first album - 'The Show Must Go On' and 'Oh Wot A Life' being completely different but excellent IMO, - then 'Giving It All Away' (best sung by Roger Daltrey) was brilliant, 'Long Tall Glasses' was catchy, then 'You Make me Feel Like Dancing' - I dunno, I think he had some talent there and some of the songs do hold up, even after all this time.

No Lutes, it was probably when you began drinking - took away the brain cells.

It was probably his singing that drove me to drink

I presume so from your comments,just looked him up and the internet says he was shite, is that correct?
Did he come from opportunity knocks?

Wasn't he on Celeb BB a couple of years ago? A bit of a twit, if I recall.

He's just taken up Aussie citizenship and he's a right miserable bastard. Our antipodean cousins are welcome to him. Good riddance.
