Chicory Tip - "Son of my father" (1972)

The only reason I remember them is that they formed in this very Maidstone, and a pub just up the road from me, the "Dog and Duck", to be precise, used to have their gold discs on the wall. Or gold disc in the singular, I can't recall the precise details.

Very confusing lyrics to that song.

Unsurprising....written by Giorgio Moroder.

Son Of My Father was the first proper record I ever bought. The actual first was Ernie by Benny Hill...........

Chicory Tip - "Son of my father" (1972)

Very confusing lyrics to that song.

As I recall them:
"Son of my father, mooling and a-drooling and a binky-bonk"
Nothing confusing about that.

I did like the 1997/98 Teddy Sheringham remix.

Oh Teddy Teddy.
He went to Man Utd and he won fuck all!

Shame the twat had to spoil it a year later though.

The Rubettes with the lead singer miming to Paul DaVinci's (not convinced that's his real name) vocal on Sugar Baby Love.

Remember seeing a performance on Totp2 some years back. They went for the classic Hi-de-Hi yellow coat/flat cap combo look. Not sure if they’re miming here?

At Number 4....Foxx with the lovely Noosha Fox....S...s...s...single bed.

At Number 4....Foxx with the lovely Noosha Fox....S...s...s...single bed.

Don’t think this performance has aged too well. Noosha looks like an old man in drag.

A few other things to look out for

- Guitar player using that plastic pipe thingy made popular by Peter Frampton, on the solo

- Band member looking remarkably like that bloke in 10cc

- Other band members looking like your mates dad (depending on your age), when you were young

- Audience members looking for the camera trying to get their faces on telly.



They really need to bring back Top of the Pops.

Need a bit of Hot Gossip and the youthful Sarah Brightman.
