This is what Dick Scum of the Armitage Shanks had to say about the Sir William Hills on hearing CHEER....
Hi Steven
got the CD in the post on Thursday. I drive 60 miles round the M25 most days to get to work...it is the worst road in the world. I did it with a big grin on Thursday! I drove home with a big grin Thursday night!
The CD is loud, funny, stroppy, gear, muzzy, fab, witty and obviously recorded in 1978...well done!!!!!!!
Very rare that I hear something that makes me smile these days. I have not written sooner as I did the same thing with it on Friday just in case it was a fluke, you will be glad to hear that I rate it most highly.
It has a real edge, the lyrics are making themselves heard with each play, great voice and so much energy.
I would love to do something or other with you lot.
Many many thanks,
