Was a couple of years before I arrived at Stanley Tech but can remember a teacher (Mr Allen) telling us about the removal of the bust. It was the bust of W.F.R Stanley himself!
Chairmao Mark Corrigan performed a rap about it in his Video C.V., as Jez wiggled around on the keyboard and Super Hans did pantomime as the home-trained dentist.
Eklektik40 It's the Ship in Norwood Junction and you are wrong in your perception, we had people come from all over London and even abroad for the event.
Love this song...Fab chord sequence...
Ray is epic. God this brings back my old boot-boy days for some reason. 1983.. home from work, playing his tape. Hes a legend! Still raw in 2021.
I love it, thanks a lot Captain. We love you Captain,

What a Day! I wish I had been there!
I remember this - very fondly - but I'd actually forgotten all about 'What?' and still can't remember if I've ever even heard it.
Biggest jump to number one entered the charts think it was 33 straight to number one. Knocked Charlene I've never been to me Happy talk
Revolution now! Great Captain First!

I wonder if anyone else sang or wrote a song about Croydon? For some reason I doubt it.

Steve Broe Yeah... fans who don't listen to him but bring their families to see a musician which they probably never heard of before.
Yeah a shame aye. Hes epic, a bloody super star! Wonder if they even know he was one of the originals of the punk band The Damned!?
I think Captain Sensible is becoming more and more attractive as time goes by!! Is the venue in Croydon?
I did a cover of this
tonikaku suteki na hito da na(*^_^*)
IS THIS YOU TALKING OMG
Billy Bragg & Captain Sensible, brothers from a different mother
+Nuchtom Clother Bragg ended up kissing the queen's arse
He should be prosecuted for impersonating a musician. How the fuck he has made a living for 40+ years is beyond me.
Fall off the face of the planet, whoever you are.
You are dead inside.
Revolution now! Great Captain First!
