Here’s a taster from Modern Life is Rubbish…….
“The other day an old mate of mine (and I mean really old) e-mailed me an mp3 file.
It was entitled ‘star’. When I played it I instantly recognised the blaring, barely in control, brass section of the ‘Star Soccer’ theme tune and I was transported back to a mid-70s Sunday afternoon at two o’clock…….
The Sunday dinner that had taken my Mum hours to cook was wolfed down in two minutes, hardly touching the sides. Roast beef and Yorkshire puddings lay in my stomach barely chewed as I rushed to turn the old black and white TV on in time for that theme music at two. That would be followed by a backdrop of one of the Midlands grounds… Molineux, the Baseball Ground, Filbert Street, the Victoria Ground, St Andrews, Highfield Road … and the rich baritone voice of commentator Hugh Johns would welcome you to the game.”
