Have no idea how many laps the Cockney Rebel vinyl discs did on my old Dual turntable? It must have been a marathon, though. And the best thing about it was that I didn't shy away from blasting the music out of the speakers at every opportunity in London. The band was virtually unknown on the island. But they shared this fate with Fisher Z, Alan Parson and Smokie. Whereby, you don't really need to know the last mentioned anywhere.
