I wrote about Revolutionary Spirit by @MrPaulSimpson1 , about our friendship, the Liverpool underground and the importance of the magical peripheral. @liverpoolpost
Revolutionary Spirit is a book about the glories and wonders of the margins, the magical peripheral, the future unscripted. By @jeffyoungwriter livpost.co.uk/p/it-comes-fro…
40 years ago today, I went to see Julian Cope play Liverpool as a solo artist to promote the @JulianHCope 1st solo album World Shut Your Mouth @OnThisDeity @angiesliverpool it's still a great album.

@TExplodes “It’s December twenny two. And it’s soon gonna be nineteen eighty two.”
@alivally @TExplodes Loved that tour. Saw them at Poole Arts centre and St. Austell Coliseum. Support from the Ravishing Beauties. 👍
@TExplodes Saw them on this tour at Manchester Apollo it was a brilliant gig
@MHristo @TExplodes No Mark that Wilder tour was early 1982 - I did see them at home at the City Hall - the one in Hull was later in October same year !!
@TExplodes Do any of these feature a face solo?
The best use of ‘Bah bah bah bah bah’ in a song.
