That song has two of the greatest lyrics written ever - the above - and when he tells he Robin that I dont believe you really like Frank Sinatra.

Listening party for it last night was fantastic. Kevin said it felt like he was in the audience for a Dexys gig for the first time.
Massive love shown for this fucking cracker of an album last night. Absolutely loved it.
I've had Teams That Meet In Caffs on repeat since. One of the best horn sections ever. I fucking love this album.

It really is a shame that so many people think the next album is some folky love in when it powers along as much as the first....there's just as much brass involved.

Big Jimmy told me that they would fucking practice and practice and his lips would be bleeding and Kev would make them do more....

Talk about Ireland.
Decent interview with Kevin Rowland in the graun today, about the upcoming re-release of his much hated but actually brilliant 1999 covers album My Beauty.

I only heard this for the first time this year and was blown away - the version of The Greatest Love Of All is just incredible.
Kevin Rowland on the My Beauty furore: 'I wasn't cracking up. I just wanted to wear a dress'
The Dexys star was ridiculed for wearing a dress and stockings on an album cover. Two decades on, he hits back – and relives the night he thought Covid-19 was going to kill him

I knew Kevin. He moved to Harrow in his teen years. He was one of the faces back in the Seventies, extremely fashion conscious. He was older than me and the "little firm" he knocked around with were well known there propensity for violence.
He never really got into that scene. But if ever you wanted him you only had to go Soho Records (the only record shop in Harrow.)
I saw him at a mutual friends funeral a few years back. Had a quick chat with him, then he was down in the Kent area If remember rightly.
Still a really nice fella'.
