[kj] (OT) Derf Scratch / Buzzcocks

[GREG SLAWSON]

Sorry, I meant "I Believe" was a college radio staple, not "Radio 9". Probably b/c it's long and it gives the dj time to go pee...

Indeed, the band is still together and touring. Saw them in June, and they were great. I don't recall the band ever charting here, at all. As Greg points out, they were a college radio staple.

Don't say "were"--the Buzzcocks are still together and touring.
Doubt they ever had a song or album that charted in the US (although college radio certianly played them--especially the song "Radio 9"
KJ had the songs "Eighties", "LLB", "Millenium" and "Pandemonium" played on the radio a little. Doubt any of their albums charted, except maybe Nightime.

Many of the Buzzcocks releases went top 40.

They were a very likeable pop band ;)

Oh, I forgot--the Decendents (are they from around LA too?). Kind of like the US version of the Buzzcocks, with about 1/1000 the recognition and record sales (I just read that
"Harmony in my Head" was on the UK charts).
