The Sound of the Suburbs - The Members . Original 7" Mix

Staines, this is Staines...

Seems like yesterday dear me

As a kid, I always wondered why Mr Tesco's eyes were bulging like that. I found out in my wayward teenage years, it's amphetamines....
Banging tune.

Oi did ya here him ,every sunday morning dad`s out washin the car .Well Aint that just sweet .All yo workin class punks out there in in the 701s dad`s never had a bleedin car to wash ,they were alaways in the Booxer or the bookies .These were a pretens Pumk middle class band .We from the real workin clasx punks in the UK knew what real life was like in the !970`s .i mean 75 -78 with smoke filled bars and Bookies runners ya know what i mean

If you're listening to this song in 2024 you are a king 🎉

A very great piece of punk music- So fantastic!!!

Who's here because of the Adam Smith Institute's Newsletter?

Tune

Stoned pissed years later tune bangs

Listen to the compelation CD of the same name and revel in late 70s nostalgia.

Grandads music ❤

Reignite has just done a podcast this morning with J C Caroll -was excellent.

Ngl for so long I thought it was Sound of the Summer 😊😅

Simply one of the greatest pop/punk songs to come out of that glorious period between 1977-1981 ... should be mandatory listening for anyone with even a passing love of music.

Absolute gold.

The sound of my youth (I am 62 yo)

Brilliant , had the single couldn’t wait when I bought it to get home n play it , youngsters wouldn’t understand today 🤷

They’re still out there washing the car. Or rather now in 2024 they’re standing around watching someone else washing the car at £20 a go. Everyone’s a winner

Still listening in 2024 at 58 ❤

love this song, i had amate in the steel factory, who shared a house with the band, he hates this song, as he had to listen to it hundreds of times lol, ian was his name,

Legendary...

Bought this when it first came out, still have it still sounds brilliant

Great song. An anthem of the times.

Drums quite good..
The bass is too loud...
And l cant hear the words!!!

Lent Chelsea Nightclub to a 'mate' in 81/2(?) never got the bastard back!!

By yself by yself..
Buy yourself this record!!

Edit: the LP Chelsea Nightclub...
Great pub rock!!

Rubbish

ha! ha! 66 years old, and I've STILL got the 45

This never felt more relevant than right now. As a student who's in college and trying his damnest to maintain a job and internships in these crazy times, this song describes a mood far too familiar.

Soundtrack to my youth

QUALITY

That’s my mate playing the drums

Guild B301 bass!

Just so good 👍🍺🗿😜

Loved this at school a looooong time ago! 😁

This was the apex of analogue recording,still sounds great.A few years later everything went pear shaped with the introduction of digital.

🔥🔥🔥

ber alles BAR

Loved this song as akid. Still here in 2024 playing this loud. THIS IS THE SOUND.

My mum used to play these legends for me when I was 3 in 2002 and they informed a massive part of my life and definitely impacted how I write songs

Used to hear the Broadmoor siren Monday morn at 10

I escaped the city prisons.

The Sound of the Suburbs bottle aye pomayne n thunderbird happy days
