The Hopefuls

You don’t understand. I could have had class. I could have been a contender. I could have been somebody.

I thought this was lost forever more until my sister Em just called saying she’d looked it up to show brag to my brother-in-law Neil about it.

Recorded at the Teddington studios in February 1994. To our right of Dani Behr is stood m’chums Pete, Rick and Foz. Foz recalled the infamous quote from Rick’s father David Way soon after: “Heath, you’re a f***ing disgrace! Chewing gum on television!”

We also got to see Nirvana, Blur and Soul Asylum whilst there. They were some good old days.

And I hadn’t previously associated that performance with this recent one. Oh dear oh dear, he doesn’t change does he.
