Not a lot of people know this, but Randall's son in real life is Guy Pratt, who has played bass with many of the greats and is a good all-round egg. He's even replied to one of my tweets, so he can't be bad.

Randall, Mike Pratt, was quite the prolific songwriter late 50's early 60's, collaborating with Lionel Bart writing songs for Tommy Steel. If you grew up in the late 70's you may remember a kids TV prog called "Handful Of Songs", he wrote the title song....

Now there's a coincience. My grandfather had a copy of an album with that song on it, and - hilarity ensued when we realised that some wag had misspelled it as "Little White
Bum"!

Not the soundtrack album from the film Tommy The Toreador? A classic that everyone should own...
Me and little Sis used to sing Little White Bum, I'll have to remind her next time we meet...

Have I really? I thought my all consuming crush on Poly and my desire for her to join me in an extended game of hide the sausage were one of this boards well kept secrets...
You'll be telling me next Suze loves Robbie, a highly unlikely scenario I think...
