Yep I have a thing about it.... Most people seem not to care so guess I'm the odd one! 

I have the same feeling about it. Is it because Kirsty McColl was involved?

Her mother tried to get to the bottom of it, but of course the Mexican had much deeper pockets than she had. 

Kirsty was a huge talent.  I went to one of her birthday commemorations at Soho Square - it was very moving.

She was great - I think i crewed for her 5 or 6 times in  Reading, Milton Keynes and Northampton between 91 & 95, including a Xmas party event at Northampton Irish Centre Dec91 which was promoted by the guy who was Entertainments mgr for Reading Uni and was a brilliant night. Later on he took over running Northampton Roadmender (and my ex left uni and went to work for him) and I think i finally worked on a gig of hers supported by the Libertines (?) in summer/spring of 95 there

 

Did a quick search and def worked on these 2 in Northampton & Reading - the latter was a tiny 300 capacity venue

NORTHAMPTON Irish Centre

READING 21st South Street

June 6, 1992.

LONDON Fleadh (Finsbury Park)

I know I'm in a minority but I hate it. 

Always depresses me.... The fake Irish accents make the whole thing so ungenuine too

I'm in agreement with you. A terrible record but the only blot on a remarkable career!!!
