Ask Andy
Driving along in my automobile
Q. Hi Andy,
We've been compiling a 'Desert Island Discs' type music collection for our joint 50th birthday and needed some tracks that we only owned on 8 track. So, we thought about buying some collections such as 'the best 18 tracks to pick radishes to', or 'night driving music, watch out for the seals'. One we did buy was '18 classic driving rock anthems'.
Meat Loaf, Billy Idol, Deep Purple, Dr Feelgood, all excellent 'driving rock anthems' as it says on the box, but track 18? Senses Working Overtime'? Not that it bothers me, but 'Driving Rock Anthems'?
More puzzling is of the 5 artists pictured, XTC feature along with Mr Ferry, Mr Meatloaf and The Stranglers.
