Prefab Sprout

No.1 in my band mini series.

No matter what happens from now until the end of my days the Prefab Sprout album "Steve McQueen" (Americans look for "Two Wheels Good") will always be in my top ten and usually top three. It's a sublime album of real beauty and as fresh today as it was over 20 years ago. If you have any appreciation of delicate music and powerful lyrics then explore and enjoy.

All my silence and my strained respect
Missed chances and the same regrets
Kiss the thief and you save the rest
All my insights from retrospect
But Bonny's not coming home, he don't live at home
Save your speeches, flowers are for funerals.
