Our second post today features an FM broadcast of Nick Lowe on March 15, 1982, 32 years ago today, from London. In 1981 after the break up of Rockpile, Lowe recorded a solo album entitled Nick The Life. The disc, however, has several ties to his former band. First, it includes a slowed down cover of the Rockpile tune, Heart. Second, both drummer Terry Williams and guitarist Billy Bremner from the band back Lowe on The album. So too do guitarist Martin Belmont, from The Rumour and Paul carrack, from would Squeeze. Bremmer, Belmont and Carrack also join Lowe for this set for the bBC, which draws tunes from Nick The Knife, Lowe’s days with Rockpile and his classic 1978 debut disc, Jesus of Cool, which was originally released in the uS as Pure Pop for Now People to avoid having the Jesus reference in the UK title offend anyone! By the way, Carrack takes the lead on Tempted from his days with Squeeze and Lesson In Love, from his 1982 solo album Suburban Voodoo.

Thank you! This was the era that I followed Nick & Dave Edmunds the most. Saw Rockpile a few times And some D. Edmunds solo shows. I would love to see him come around again.
