Stars in Their Eyes - 'Super' Group

Yes, it really did happen. Years of therapy wasted. 'George Formby', 'Benny Hill' and 'Rolf Harris', together at last on the SITE Xmas show.

Panto karaoke gameshow. Contestants are made up to resemble their favourite singers, whom they then impersonate. I always found that most of the entertainment value came from some of the so-called look-a-likes actually looking-nothing-a-like whoever they were supposed to be. Moments branded into my brain include an Xmas special featuring a group performance by 'George Formby', 'Benny Hill', and 'Rolf Harris', and an early show where someone performed as Janet Jackson in blackface. The horror, the horror.

I used to love this as a kid. So much so, we used to play SITE at weekends when friends came over

Rolling Stone's 454th greatest album of all time
A surprising album from the shock-rocker. Some songs are very similar to the Rolling Stones and Bowie, with a definite pomp to them. Others like the brooding and dark Black Juju show more of his emerging style that would become his trademark. Standout tracks are I'm Eighteen and Hallowed Be My Name (which I am convinced I have heard a cover version of but cannot found who did it!). The album closes with an odd rendition of Rolf Harris' Sun Arise for no apparent reason...
