The Nerves - ep (1976)
So whilst I'm talking about Blondie I may as well throw this one out there. Best known as a major hit by Blondie "Hanging on the Telephone" was actually a cover version of a Nerves song.
Released in 1976 as a self financed 7'', it promptly sank without a trace until it was picked up by Blondie who made it internationally known. I'd be hard pushed to choose which version of this song I prefer; they're both great. The group consisted of: -
Jack Lee - Guitar
Peter Case - Bass
Paul Collins - Drums
The Nerves lasted for a very brief period before they split. Case and Collins went on to form the Plimsouls in the late 70's.
I don't intend this to be a long term thing. I just want to ramble on about a few bands as I do to the guys at work who have no music tastes. I can then point them here and say..."educate yourself".
After all music should be more than Michael Jackson (RIP), Lady Gaga and a never ending production line of boy and girl bands. I recall a time when music was dangerous and exciting.
It would appear they really did turn rebellion into money.
