  • Best instrumental track ever?

    For me it's Gordon's Gin by Human League. Bet everyone's got their own favourite though!

    Has to be "Apache - Incredible Bongo Band" - makes me feel happy whenever I hear it!

        Telstar by The Tornados was #1 when I was born so that is right up there!

            It did managed to top the Billboard Hot 100 in the USA.

            The BBC used it as the theme for their 1984 & 1988 Olympic coverage to great effect.

                    Do you really believe the other side without provocation would launch so many ICBM's, subs and ships knowing that we would have no option to launch as well? It would break our MAD Treaty (Mutually Assured Destruction) not to mention the end of the world as we know it.
