Really Guilty Pleasures


Having already confessed to loving ELO, Queen, Chris Rainbow and Dollar you’d think that I wouldn’t be able to drain any more water out of the street credibility pool. But no, in 1977 at the white-hot height of punk rock I bought a 45 of the hippy dippy song “Wondrous Stories” by those wizards of Prog Rock, Yes. Not only that, but unlike with ELO I didn’t turn off it once I got hip to punk, the awful truth is I never stopped liking it and would merrily play it alongside The Clash and Joy Division records. I know it’s wrong but the damn thing sure is pretty.

Glad I got that off my chest.
