That's exactly what I was thinking Mikey. There's always the classics like 'make me smiles'. Then there's the poetry of 'Amalfi'.Its like a painting a picture, it can be admired by everyone, but only the artist, knows the true genious of it.

The Lighthouse has become a really big live track with Barry's amazing violin solo. So that is top of my "wants" list these days, then of course no show would be complete without Sebastian and Make Me Smile.
THE LIGHTHOUSE
SEBASTIAN
MAKE ME SMILE
MR RAFFLES
BACK TO THE FARM (last heard by me at Blackheath concert hall a few years ago.

B) I would love to read the list of Steve's own current favourites: I'd also be interested to know why he liked or disliked any individual song!
Happy New Year to Steve, his family and all Cockney Rebel fans everywhere! B)
