'When the World Knows Your Name' by Deacon Blue. 

If you've got it, play it. 

If you haven't then eat your heart out. 

Brilliant.

You're up around 'Circus Lights' or 'This Changing Light' by now then. 

Listening to Fellow Hoodlums now. Brilliant. Too late to change AOTD 
though. ;-)

Spooky really. My brother wrote me about a TV show about Ricky Ross and 
we got to discussing which DB albums we had between us. We got to where 
'When the World..' was the only missing one.

And then I had an insightful moment and remembered buying four (for a 
pound) ex jukebox CDs in a pub, a million years ago, and knew that one of 
them was Deacon Blue, but which one and where was it. 

Anyway, I found it and it was the very one. And I had obviously never 
played it. So I did, and it is awesome. 

If I only had a radio show.....;-)

I normally choose the AOTD on the day, so I'll have to listen to Waking 
Hours tomorrow. But it would certainly qualify under any ordinary 
circumstance. 

Yesterday's was 'Houses of the Holy'. 

Where's that confounded bridge?

I've decided that, even if HOTH *isn't* the best Zep album (it might be, 
you choose), it is Bonzos best. The drumming is quite superb.
